HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

So i am now king of spins :)

Oh well.

Who went out from here besides Richo and I and flick and her bf.

I dont no alot of u SAU guys.

I went out and loved it. But poped a cooler pipe off in the last session and that was due to my boost controller having a shit connectiong with one of the return vac lines.

Oh well.

I would ask of pics of me but i would assume they would all be of me spinning. HAHAHAHA

I wish i could of seen richo going at it again. But u were in the first group and i was working on my car while you were out.

Nice to finally meet you Flick. HAHAHHA its only been how long.

Lots of problems last night for me, from constant delams after only 1-2 soft laps to snapping a rear subframe connection.

Not fun having to drive home with 10deg camber and 10deg toe out on one wheel :)

But not as bad as Luke maroon 31 blowing the 25 box, hope you made it home ok dude.

Come say hello next time Brenton, it'd be nice to out a face to the name.

Cheers

^^^Gotta love when that happens :unsure:

If the bracket's just been ripped off the subframe cleanly, get it welded back on, if not, new subframe, not the worst to do. Make sure you reinforce the welds when you do it though, the stock welds are piss poor.

How much power did you end up pulling anyway?

haven't had a chance to have a proper look, but it looks that its just the bracket (cross fingers) Ill make sure I get a really strong weld there, and Ill do the same on the other side while Im at it just in case.

it put 198rwkw, but its way too rich, it definitely needs a tune, but we didn't have enough time to do it yesterday, Jeff was flat out. I should see around the 215 mark taking some fuel out of the mixture, we'll see.

Mind you, it felt a bit laggy compared to the 25 turbo, hopefully that can be fixed a little with the tune.

Brenton, nice to meet u too finally! Only saw a few of your runs, yes u spun but hey its only your second time out on track? All part of learning right ;)

Was good to see you out there though! Well done.

Richo, awesome stuff again, saw a few of your runs and they were pretty good!

Unfortunately i left both my cameras at home so no footage this prac. Spent most of the night trying to keep warm more than concentrate on the drifting.

Ill be out there one day :laugh:

Hey, i was out there in the White Cefiro with the vented front guards and CA18 silvia rear stockies, had a great time out there.

All in all i was pretty crappy but i think i improved towards the end, was the frist time i have have ever "drifted" my ceff in the 3 years i have owned it so i think it was about time i gave it a go. I might have to get out there more often now, was too much fun to never go out there again.

Too bad about your gear box troubles Luke when i actually got the chance to spectate you were doing really well and making it look easy...

Brenton i saw in the Cefiro's part on this forum you were saying that your Crank angle sensor might be giving you trouble, i have some spare CAS's you can borrow or buy for cheap if it fixes the problem, i also have the loom and the two knock sensors from a RB20 spare if you want to borrow them too. By the way i was behind you on a couple of runs and you were really going hard, well done :happy:

Yeh i was out there, Went out during the day as we had a grip prac day! stayed out for about an hour or 2 after! Was parked next to Simons shed!

You were getting better Brenton, the first session i saw you we were down near the Esses and you looped a few times but were getting better! Good work!

Richo had the "i don't give f#%k about my car" slide going on and looked good! Some good entry speed going on there, just noticed you would run a little wide on turn 1!!

Those Monkeys know how to slide hey???

And that Viva 32/33/34 looked like POO!! wasn't keen at all! especailly when you put the look of Georges 34 next to it!!

Yes mate still trying to get that bloody turn 1-2 right :P try to hit the scandos always at the same spots but sometimes I f**ck up. its all about consistency, Ill get there one day.

The Viva is indeed a weird looking car, is starting to grow on me though, and I think someone else is driving it now, not sure.

I can't remember seeing you scando(ing) the start finnish straight, If you were id say not to do it! If you slide out of the esses then grip up, power down to the canteen and switch back there, bum drag it to the apex and power out! it seemed to work for alot of others! GT George seems to like to do too much of a smoke show down the start finnish straight, and when he gets to turn 1 he has to get on the brakes, seems his switch backs are too long or something!

All in all dude you had some good pace on!!!

cheers ceffie, hopefully nothing major with the gearbox, shame i didnt get to see any of your runs, have to check you out next time, assuming you will be coming out again yeh?

the viva 324 has been driven by adam kipling as of late, he told me it still got a long way to go, the car originally was a gts-4 and all the running gear is still up front so is still a very heavy car to slide. Shame about the engine if it did seize up, was one sweet sounding engine when it was in mid slide.

Wow thanks for the kind words guys.

I wasnt going hard. Well i didnt think i was. Wow i cant wait to jump into a better performing car and see how i go in that.

As all i have is a fmic, boost controller, coilovers and a shimmed diff.

The VIVA R334 died. yes the engine did sieze.

And yes its Adam Kipo driving it when its sidways and the owner when its slowly getting sideways.

No disrespect to the owner either.

Ceffy: I have a spare CAS at home. But will keep u in mind if its the knock sensors. I hope its not.

Cant wait for VG30 and a 2way.

And i might also have some sponsorship too.

Gotta keep it on the hush hush untill i start performing better.

For all reading, it was my first Practice since drift shool. And well that wasnt that special. So im counting Sat nights drift prac as my first real practice.

Thanks again.

And keep up the good work SAU drifters.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving.

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
