Easy dipstick. Last year there was one drifter in the world, this year there are 3. !VOILA! a 200% increase. Now see how f**ked statistics are? Drifting big. PPPPHHHHTTT

You know you want to do it If seen you attempt skids

The old wheelchairs set up as of now may kind of rule you out but

Yeah, Like i want a tetanus shot. Sif i want to hammer my car like that. Buncha tards. :ermm:

make that 5 not 20, And yes it is friendler. It isnt hammering off the rev limiter for the duration. :ermm:

Im not worried about the engine...set the limiter to somthing safe and bang it all day! Its the other parts you have to worrry about

OHHHHH! So drifting is kind to the rest of the car. is that why i see them with farked transmissions, diffs etc, More undercoat than a drug users convention and body parts hanging from them everywhere. oops...sif hanging, strewn around the track i meant. :ermm:

I didnt actually say that, I fact it is tough on the car but no more tough than anything else

EG prepare to scrape your drive shafts off the tarmac :rofl:

roflcopter @ djr81.....it's so easy to drift....just smash the throttle and the car does the rest....why don't we all go join the D1 Japan/America series, get paid heaps, drive nice cars, get free cars/parts all while being competition winnahs?

I liked this thread better when it was about me.

But thanks for the advice. Now that I have it on someone elses authority that drifting is easy I can go and do all the stuff you have listed. I have seen the light.

no wait, u've turned finding a job, into a job, yeah?

You know I have a job as soon as I have my license back. I'm in at the CBD office on Thursday come do lunch with me haha.

Every one wants to be like me. Deal with it, it's a fact if life and I love it

your ignorance, stupidity and lack of ability to get your car on the road always amuses me shane, thats why I keep coming back.

HAHAHAHA - you bloody stirrer :ermm:

here a something for you to try at home kids:

Yawn.

If you want something that will start to tax your brain concentrate on where McRae is driving whilst digesting Nicky Grist's pace notes. They are straight forward - the higher the number the faster the corner - same as a gearbox.

In any spare moments you may have check the speed & the size of the trees on the road side.

When you brain can't keep up contemplate that would be the same moment that you would be your way to a big accident.

drifting isnt that great...i think id rather be racing for mclaren or the red horsies...getting paid millions instead.

I think everyone shares those thoughts, although I don't know how friendly it would be racing with Alonso and Hamilton, they seem to have enough problems with just the two of them at Mclaren.

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
