was driving at malala and car revved to about 6k in first before i shifted then it hit about 5k in second without the power kicking in..was really loud :) after that little dilemma now my engine bay smells like burnt rubber and when i change gears,it just doesnt sound like what it did before...

wondering what happened, any ideas?

fixed for ya :bunny: sure that it aint wheel spin u smelling or did you mean u took off normal and reved to 6k not a clutch dumping

and andrew its 138hp of oldschool muscle, who could handle the l26 monster :bunny:

those burnouts are not my doin but it is a regular spot for commos. cops actually go down there every now and then at night waiting for them to attack.

sooo.. I just got defected..lol. I sold the skyline to get away from cops, but still managed to get pinged in the shitbox. Least i can laugh about it this time, but i really should pay more attention to my tyres.

and to add on from this we could really use a good pair of 14" tyres. Size not fussed aslong as they got good tread.

yeah im with Craig on this one cooked clutch

ive got no idea when it comes to mechanics and all, but i did have a guess it was either the clutch or the turbo/s (r32 gtr). it still drives relatively ok, need to put alot more effort in shifting and taking off (like just from stationery).

any advice on replacement soon? or is leaving it a bad idea?

p.s. thanks to craig and madaz for the advice

i recommend buying a 4wd and getting it dirty

if only i had a few g's saved up...

the ORC twin is like 2k far out...

might look into something a bit cheaper haha

expecting around 800-1k hopefully, thats a couple of weeks pay

the NPC HD 5puk ceramic clutch good for 350rwkw or little over 300AWKW will set you back around 580 delivered and Daryl from Adelaide Radial Tyre will fit it for you at a good price $350-450 cant exactly say how much every job is a little different

you won't be able to run the suction cap ones at the track anymore. CAMS changed their ruling at the end of last year, infact you aren't even supposed to run anything other than lipstick cams anymore (but they aren't enforcing that at this stage at mallala, and are still allowing handy cams), and if you do run a lipstick cam the brace to hold the computer (that you need to run when using a lip stick cam) must be able to hold the computer under 25G's of load.

What i used was a L bracket that you can find at any hardware store and fixed it to the top of the passangers side seat belt (i.e. the seat belt mounting point near your shoulder)

when im on the track next time ill talk to the guys there and see what they say about the suction cup camera's. its not for any events just practice.

hoping to see all the things i should of done to do things better.

i see heaps of people using them this year so hopefully they dont care so much at mallala

call smooth garage.

niko and benny will hook you up an awsome price for a heavy duty clutch.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
