Goodbye SAVAs you pieces of garbage.Will definatley be honing my drifting again as ive been out of the driving day loop for a couple of months due to my upgrades.Also have a Project Mu brake kit on the way so hopefully will be installed by the 27th.Fingers crossed.

My last effort.Those wet patches really stuffed my run.

hi dave.have we met or seen each other before.i am from ingleburn.i drive a white r33 with bodykit and white rims.

you have an impressive list of mods.if you really want to get better at drifting its allot easier with a decent lsd.

if you want to do a diy $20 lsd rebuild jobbie then go to the link in my sig.mine is still going good.youll have to specify that you want the shims asap though when you order them in.

the rear end is allot easier to predict/hold sideways.

Oh, and re:semi's - at the texi - I was on the wet skid pan and I got the worst times with my semis, understeered everywhere and at one stage I almost came off the track cause of them!! Ando (a31deviat) wasntthebest either!!

On the back track though we were pretty quick!

There a couple of white 33s in the area i would have driven past you at some stage probably.The biggest pain at the moment is the Hicas and i need some solid bushes for the rear as it tends to axle hop alot.

Cant wait for the day though! All time attack with the slalom and trying to keep the back end cranked sideways in the cloverleaf.But then again could be all time attack,would like to better my 3rd place from last time.

all good.like we discussed.note:may inccur small sexual favours and beers :)

Hey jeff...see you there man..this time..pls...don't F*** up..hehehe

Eug.

it was pretty close but the guy in the BMW was to hard to beat on the dry skid pan.he was good.

but for the rest of us meer mortals it was really close for the top 6 in the rwd category.there was less than a sec separating us all.jeff was going well untill the spinout.

if you want good times then sliding the ass end out all of the time isnt an option.as you know.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
