i agree!! :) the difference light, slicks & talent!! none of which mark has. lol

Hey Russ you certainly got my attention and it seems many many others in the Jap import car world. Now I have to spend more time and mondey to get near your times. Awesome time for Semi slicks and with good slicks you would take at least a second off that, so right up there and still no aero on the car and other things you can do. You sure that trasponder was not moved to help your times???. He he.

Now go do it in Japan and fly the Aussie flag. Tough competition over there not just a zed boat to beat, some serious cars. Will be interesting.

Just trying to decide if I should wear an australian flag as a toga or a nappy? not sure which will go over better with the japanese people attending. maybe the toga as it will be a bit nippy in the first week of december. lol.

Read HPI today with that Garage Ito GTR........53 seconds.....thats pretty insane, hope you guys go well and beat them.

Are you entering in the same class as that car? or the street class with air con and cd?

forget KT, if you see the infamous beer baron let him have a steer. he has balls like a rhino and is not afraid to back your car into the wall then give you constructive criticism about your cars brakes.

Hey Russ, what do you think of your STACK cluster mate? I'm tossing up between a STACK 8130 and an MXL PISTA at the moment, and not sure which way to go.

Cheers

hey dane

love the stack, really easy to read!!

all warnings really visible, just make sure you get the model you want with all the right sensors and readings that you require.

cheers russ

Thanks for the tip Russ.

I was contemplating the stack as it looks really easy to read, as well as having the analogue tacho which I think would be easier on the fly, but the cost of it to have the same sort of functionality of an MXL is up there...

Cheers

Dane

    • 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.
