Yeah was pretty good just to watch, unfortunately a few big noter’s that were there were complete rubbish however.

Too bad the diesel was pretty heavy on the point where I kept on spinning, it’s damn right funny seeing the Lexus complete the whole round o bout.

Shame about your buddies’ car… Myself an a few mates bailed before the others an saw that sign on the way home…

Always next time to watch :)

Cyrus... I know you would have been keen to come... You can't hide it

the sign was somewhere near supercheap. it was a 2 legged sign. he hit it with the left rear quarter right in front of the tail light. the next day we started panel beating it out and its pretty much all done. all it needs now is a coat of paint.

nismo boy, my mate said you were doing pretty well. my mate that was in his missus car is going to look at a silvia this arvo. he's going to put the motor and box out of his drag car in there (a GH sigma with a sr20 in it - the motor is only stock with the usual mods -exhaust, cooler and more boost, but it ran a 12.5 at the 2005 jamboree). so when he puts that in he'll be out and about in it. it should handle a bit better than what he was going to put the motor into - a 1977 chrysler galant wagon.

Atleast some of the crowd was happy with some good old fashion Lexus fun. How’d you buddy go with that Silvia? I think anything will handle better then a Galant!!

We’re heading back out tonight; I’ll try and snap some happy pics.

Sambo, siff not wet weather ruckus isn’t fun, of course I’m talking about legal wet weather fun...

ha ha my mate has done up an old galant wagon. his dad now has it thought, its bright yellow.

that sign he hit wasnt the one i was talking about. the one i saw was down near the peregian springs roundabout, big mutha sign was bent pretty bad.

my mate ended up getting the silvia. its a natro, auto, ca18 (not that the motor will be in there long). paid $1800 for it and the body is perfect.

the galant wagon is a beast. its a 1.3 auto, with a burnt valve so its running on 3 cylinders. he decided against doing it up after he put a set of 14" wheels on it and it would just walk all over the road when it hit a bump.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
