Pretty silly leaving the Victorian number plate on you can see the rego in one sceen. Looks a bit stupid in the back streets. Hope he dosen't get caught.

But yes it did look good on the roundabout.

^^^ and sadly powersliding is NOT drifting. It's like nearly every Yank Youtube video about 'drifting' - none of them clutch kick or handbrake - they are only powersliding.

Your a day layour a day late with that one ;)

?

I know it was an April Fools joke they did, I didn't know about that one till today, I still found it amusing so thought I would share for people that didn't know also.

this is great

first they convert a car turbo to work as a primitive jet engine

then they screw around with a Rolls Royce Derwent engine in the backyard of their garage...

Makes me want one. Just cause

-D

saw that awhile ago Ben....awesome!!

Here is the follow up video....apparently Karl passed away just over a year ago

This is an interesting reply to a question as to "why doesn't the truck move at full throttle/"

He could have 50 of those engines at full throttle on the truck and it will not move, UNTIL the brakes are released and then there is not stopping it! Ever seen the video of the 'strongman' holding back a whole jet with his teeth are something, if he gave the jet an inch he would be gone. Even when you are flying, the jet will full power the engines and those tiny tires hold it all back, until the brakes were released. if Carl released the brakes on the truck, no stopping it!

I will have one of these in a year or two.....shame it'll cost $40K to convert it to RHD.

662hp Mustang Shelby GT500 for under $100K

Won't beat the R35 around the "Ring" but will blitz it in acceleration....apparently the 2013 model will out accelerate the Bugatti Veryon.

Listen to the sound of the stock exhaust!! :woot:

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
