had loads of fun....good to see everyone had a ball as well...my biggest regret was doing the burnout for soooooo long and completely demolished my tyres....with no tyres i had no chance, esp in the wet...hit the water and spin...

looking forward to the next one...with some new tyres of course...

hey eug, nice to meet you out there today, and everyone else for that matter. Was a great day, one rexy had more serious problems, a few people overheated due to abuse lol and corinns clutch died. a lot of rubber was left on the track by the boys with deeper pockets and i had some good times and some extra fun runs :bunny:

all is good in the skyline world. looking forward to the next day, but we need a new event . i would like to learn to drift maybe they can incorporate that, but i guess you cant time it lol. figure 8 in the middle of the slalom maybe? i dunno. see you all at the next one

Wasn't just my clutch!

loose turbo, loose steering rack, broken engine mount

Also found out why my speedo is out so much. It doesn't have a 32 gtst diff!

If anyone has any feedback on the day good or bad please let me know :)

yeah he is from the autosports forum...he told me he was organising it....not sure what he is doing...think he said dvd....but wen i find out i will post across...

havent done burnouts like that before....and wont be doing them again....but damn the tyres were still smoking for a good 5 mins after getting off the pan.....the guys who busted there cars blocked the exit so it looked like mine was busted as well....i just couldbt get through..... burnouts in semi's.....damn....

lol yeah... right.

everyone knew you weren't blown up, its just that most people could see that you were going to get wiped out if you stayed there long enough.

plus your car was the only one from memory that actually dissapeared in a cloud of smoke, the otehrs were moving around too much.

not that i know a lot about burnouts *whistles* lol ive been to summernats too many times

yeah it was pretty crazy at times when all i could see was smoke and was doing it blind....had to stop before i could start moving again....when i was doing the tight circle work it was completely white....loved it but never doing it again...well not with good tyres or if i dont have a spare set with me...

i was worried about getting hit....wasnt the smartest place to park....

still holding out for the video....want to see it from outside the car cause it looked big from were i was sitting...

hey Weeman here with the grey XR6 T. I had a good time, I'm lookin foward to doing anyother one. Ill have to find some more stockies :P

Whoo! :P

Heh, sorry about my car being in the way there. Backwards pressure on the fuel pump; she came good after a few minutes settling.

Hey Tom,

Glad you enjoyed the day.

Its not the wheels that are the problems just go to a 2nd hand tyre place and you should be able to pick up tyres for $30 a corner :P

Thats what i plan to do next time i want to do burnouts....

might try some semi slicks next time....but not sure how the water section will go... but the understeer improvement should help alot....

ha you guys are getting too competitive, i went fast and i only drive one handed. you have a lot to learn before you waste money on semi slicks. i'm not sayting it wont help, im just saying you could get the time other ways. like driving better.

i'm sure its harder to do the slalom 180 turns on semis too, its tightest if you sliiide.

well i am the stig so driving ability is not of concern....tyres should greatly improve times if it isnt too wet...if there was no water at all i would definitely go the semi's...my first 2 runs were alot faster then last time....i was under by over 1.5 seconds....

i noticed that this time everyone was slower then last time....overall that is...i think the time trial format is great and love the competitiveness....

i plan to take back my crown in the rwd turbo category....

i plan to take back my crown in the rwd turbo category....

I think you woulda given me a real good run for 1st in RWD turbo class if you hadn't fried ya tires. But ill take it where I can get it.

cheers Weeman.

Whoo! :P

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
