They are great cars for off the showroom floor....i had a boner for it when he first got it. But a ride the other night in my car at 20psi and im feeling the love for my car again. Especially now i have the new gearbox and diff for it :ninja:

Stick with the GTSt, especially since yours looks so trick :ninja:

How can you want to part with that?

:)

You are right! I will learn to drive first......then I will buy and AWD so I can forget everything I learnt ;)

That pic shows where the workshop bent my bonnet :ninja:

Haha - especially if you go the EVO path.

When James was first driving at Wakefield he had very bad brake shudder. Then I went for a spin in his car and discovered you could just hammer up to a corner - and then turn. And the car would go around. Brakes really weren't needed. And neither was talent.

Don't want to get into the my wang is bigger than yours argument, even thou it is!

But one thing to note on the day is that the track temp at EC was very high and the semi's weren't sticking to their full potential. Which was proven when I ran a best time of 1.47.7 on the very hot dry track, then went and ran a 1.47.8 on a damp cooler surface when the rain was a slight drizzle. I wasn't pushing as hard, but the car had the grip back.

Just thought you might find that interesting.

I can't speak for Snowy, but last time I checked - I'm not gay. It's been a while since my last, you know 'check up' though, so ah... nah.

Anyhoo - you guys should stop picking on the way we talk, eh :)

Much to my surprise after receiving the Presidents Choice award last year for assuming this Alistair character you so regularly spoke about "may" have been your partner :P

This is great stuff. A lot of passion. The only thing I can add to it is it is a tricky track and to cut some sharp times will take a bit of practice.

The GTRs would have dominated the Zed if we drove them to their limit, but the track got the better of us.

Next time the Zed is gunna have to watch out. I'm putting serious time in on V8 Supercars 3....

Just move to Sydney for a few months. You can work on your tan and dance moves...and if you have time cut some laps at the Creek :P

You guys suck...even though i have done over 15 days at EC, i was only hoping for about a 1:50 flat. So you would have all still kicked my ass. Wakefield is where its at....blood will be drawn at Wakefield in 2007. With Australia Day forever being remembered as the day the GTSt fought back :D

I am thinking of coming for that one too :)

why do you say that?

Just looking at the tyre sidewall deflection. Looks to me as if it needs about 1-1.5lbs more. Looks like it is going over so far, it is probably hopping sideways a bit if it loses a little grip. Would that be right Jack?

My tyre pressures were up the shit at EC. Couldn't get good grip so took some pressure out, got worse. Put more pressure in and got better. But by then the tyres were shagged. Couldn't do more than 1 lap before it started to understeer like a WRX. A track like EC needs new rubber, will make sure next time!!!!

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
