to be honest turn 1 scares the shit out of me.

And I think you'd already left by the time XCUZME had his little excursion.....

Was starting to get turn 2 down better after some good advice from Scathing.

Good to hear. I still can't get the Turns 2-3 complex correct consistently, but I know where I should be even if I can't make it stick.

yeah that wasn't fun. I was right behind him.... well not directly, but I was directly behind the soarer on the racingline and he went the inside to overtake him, a little too fast.. felt like it all happened in slow motion. My hands wouldn't stop shaking ... and was hell nervey first session back out there.

He must be feeling a little sore today!!!

Great time! I thought you said you were running around 2 mins! You must have pulled out a blinder for that lap....

nah.. 2.03 .. I wanted to get under 2mins... but it wasn't going to happen. Bit disappointed!!! But next time hey!

but far out, I am sick of all the drivers thinking they are shit hot and being too stubborn to let a faster car through! The amount of times I had caught up to a car by turn 2.... not being waved past and having him fang it down the straight only for me to catch him again come the first corner... it's a f**king joke.

I'm certainly not the fastest driver so when i see a car coming through in the rear view.. i automatically stick my hand out the window and wave him past so I don't disrupt his lap as much.

Anyone else missing a few sessions of timing??? It looks like I've got some missing.

Was someone else driving your car or using your transponder? Your time on Natsoft is 1:52.

Yeah, I had a massive rant about it after the Wakefield CC...for which I got told off about. The A group is generally quite courteous. Aside from the cock in the turbo S2000, who has a reputation for it, to my knowledge everyone else in my session was waving faster traffic through. But when I drove in the B group at Wakefield, I had a couple of guys not wave me past, and in fact I had an Evo baulking me when I had a look up his inside to engage him in a braking duel.

I promised Narada I'd do a "track courtesy" article, which I haven't completed yet. I'll try finishing it off this weekend so he can print it in The Circuit and maybe up on the site.

that's a top idea!!! I hope the yellow s15, the black integra, the white integra and the black soarer read it! I don't think i got one clear lap in because of all the traffic... maybe I'm just too nice and should try and nudge my way infront anyway.

Yeah liz, what gives? You're 12 in the natsoft listing :) did you cut across the in field at some point :thumbsup:

Nice times btw guys.

don't get too excited, I still can't drive lol.

I shared my transponder with Andrew was they didn't have enough to go around.

I thought it might have been Andrew, perhaps in your car. :thumbsup:

I'll get the article out to Narada soon. Tonight, hopefully.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.

      I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense

      yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
