mitchy what happened to your car??

only did one run eyy then took off and saw some smoke coming form the rear... turbine eyy???

i got footage of that 33 spinning out! MADNESS! some one owes the big man

huh? Mitchy's car was running?

Let me guess...the smoke was from the heat off his feet losing traction on the track trying to launch it...a-la flinstone style :D haha

yeh I saw it as he was collecting the time slip... wasn't it a fresh engine? can't be happy about having to yank it out again!

So what were the other GTR times for the night... who had the fastest time from our lane???

anyone know whats been done to that bloke's car who spun out 1/4 track

It has been tuned by a new workshop called "YOGA"... he was simply trialing out "salute to the sun" (a yoga position), and since the sun was setting he had to slide it to the west.......... what a dedicated student.

Had a great fun night, put up some poor time but hey first time there. Was great to see all the lines out and had some good chats to alot of ppl!

Only did a 14.4, but the car has a very big dead spot on 4000 which has baffled me... oh well great experiance!

Was a Good Night... and enjoyed racing other skylines...

I had traction problems n i think my Tyres r going. I couldn't even get into the 13'z

where last time i could get into 13'z easily. Was a bit frustratin... cuz i was aimin to get mid to low 13'z,

would of got quicker times if just rolled off slowly haha..

Had a good run wif Strich9 where i mis-shifted going into 2nd to 3rd.. n i was just bouncing off the Redline :(

so ne 1 got High 11'z or What?????

Haha, funny shit :(

Was glad everyone enjoyed themselves, even if the times weren't what we all hoped for :laugh:

I was right next to him and there was alot of smoke coming out the back..... I would like to know what it was. My guess is a oil line burst onto the engine.

thats what it looked like from the people up top! lil bit of smoke might be f*kall!

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • 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.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
