In the words of the black knight "can't we all just get along" ha ha.

hey man no peer pressure here like i said its your call, best plan, save some money, do your coil packs and get it tuned when you have the money, jsut means youll have to live with it a bit longer and baby it.

moving on

whats happening tonight? anybody appart from pinksta (welcome back) going to be out tonight?? im still waiting on parts :) so no hard driving for me, just put around...

I'll be defently at the drag strip!

I changed my G-box oil the other night. Thanks to ryan mind you.

I had bad crunching from 3rd to 4th. Anything after 3,500rpm it crunched. And likewise from 4th to 5th.

That was geniune ( Cant spell for shit ) subaru gbox oil in there with nulon addative. Worked for a bit. Survived a day on the dyno.

But it just grew worse. I brought some Redline Gearbox oil. Type: Lightweight shockproof. Aka, smurfs blood. Normally around $220 delivered for 3.8lts i got mine for $111.50 for 3.8ltrs.

www.performancelub.com Check it out peoples. Great oils and fast Delivery. 3 working days to NT to my door.

Anyway. I put it in, as soon as everything was warmed up. Flogging time!!! Every gear much more direct with no sign of crunching through 1st to 3rd... Now... test time... Gave it hell to top of 3rd and changed.... Guess what. No damn crunch! I'll be happy to prove it too people too! You could hear the crunch with original oil over my sterio... No shit. The oil has a much more direct feel to it and alot smoother! Bad thing is.. Theres alot of downsides. You have to make sure you can get every last drop of your old oil out. I let mine sit for the whole night and most of the day. She was empty! Other wise it mixes and turns to Jelly... No good. And... you cant go from redline back to another brand without flushing your box many times with cheap cheap oil. It mixes with the new oil and makes it bad. And can actually fail and destroy your box. But defently something for you boys to look at. Also... It says on the bottle 500,000k life span... If you drive a damn golf buggy. For most wrxs it's between 10-15ks max.. But thats awd and hard launching. All your boxes are stronger then mine so the effect's will be greater with the oil i'd imagine. And life span alot better. Check the threads here about REDLINE. Some hate it, some love it. Im a lover :P

Harold at that website is awsome. He just rose his price's tho. Only by 5-10$ tho. Im really happy about it.

Anyway. Enough Late night tele marketing. Now remember, if you buy 1, you get 1 absolutly free. And if you use your credit card. I'll throw a smack in the head free for not doing it sooner!

Good luck at the dyno

hey guys, good turnout at the drags lucky no big problems today.

im putting some of the videos from the day up on u tube if people want to check them out, i also have the movies from the dyno night if anyone want them i got them on disk.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
