What happened to your car Grant?

Nathan,

I may have killed something but won't know what exactly until I've have it looked by Trent of Status Tuning tomorrow or wednesday, look for my thread on Victoria forums for updates.

Cheers

What happened to your car that day? Saw you hammering around the track probably once, and then it looked like you were taking it easy? Did something break?

Can post up pics of your car if you want too.

Hey Mate,

Was on radials in the first 2 session bedding in some new pads which i decided to toss. Third session went out with the r-comps and ferodo's - whilst on this hot lap (passenger session) coming out of last turn - stripped 3rd gear - the temporary standard box could not cope with the torque - even after a detune the day before. :)

Cheers

Wow that sucks to hear mate. The car sounded like it was running sweet in the first few sessions. Car looks awesome and i hear its participating in superlap? I hope you go well and i will see you at Superlap if so!

Here's just one of many photos i took of your car on the day, i hope you enjoy it.

Thanks,

Kory

Prescott, those pics are from the Nasho down around sutherland yeah? Nice clean pics.

They're actually from a Putty road drive we did a couple of weeks ago.

Haven't driven Nasho yet :)

First pic makes me sad at fail wheel widths/offsets. Im thinking of getting the LMGT2's modified to be 1" wider and 1" less offset :P

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
