LOL no shite i was gonna say no your weren't cos i was with the Boostworx Red rx7, but then rememberd seing another one out there! How'd ya go? there were some decent cars out there on Sat!

Yeah I probably should of said red FC :) I was just in day lic section. Was good day last time I was out there had slight overheating issue but hopefully fixed that now hard to say though because it was alot colder than last time. Was only my 2nd time out there still working out a few things but had a mate do dodgy lap time and said I was doing 1:28's still room for improvement but need more upgrades and $$$ now :thumbsup: Some very decent cars out there!! What happened to the boostworx RX7?? Saw him stop on track then came in with front end damage or was that already there??

Yeh Shaun from Boostworx sold his rx7 to my mates(who was running the blue Celica) uncle, It was his first time in the car and turn 2 bite him hard dents all down the drivers side and the front end damage, car was all good apart from the cosmetic damage, He ended up doing mid 1:20's by the end of the day, Shaun used to run 1:17's so he's doing alright for his first time! Were(Celica, Rx7, 808 and a few other IPRA cars) all off to Sandown in about 3 weeks, so looking forward to that!

Prob see you out there sometime!!

Yeah damage looked pretty bad but at least it was nothing major. Hopefully get out there again next practice but I dont know funds are running low and would really like to upgrade brakes before I go out again discs are pretty farked, but the bug has bitten now.......HARD :thumbsup: Think there is 2 practice days next month but I have a few other commitments so may not be out again till August, unless I somehow get hold of a whole heap of $$$ now :( :(

Yeh im hearing ya, I really wanna get the Skyline out there also, but to get it upto scratch and reliable is gonna cost me some dosh! I've been spanner man for a couple of mates now for about 8 years running Sprint Karts, Superkarts, Saloon Cars and Improved Production Cars, and everyone always asks, "when are you getting out there" and i always say "money"! I just love bieng in and around motorsport and helping my mates achieve good things, and we have won alot of comps/meetings over the years and it's quite fullfilling just doing that!

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
