Ok so I thought it would be a bit of hoonville, but I had no idea! All kinds of hoons around. Three cars had accidents today! Saw a newer ute that decided to crash test the barrier at turn 2!

Geez. I hope they don't mistake my white skyline for a barrier. Would be target practice!

Benm hasnt posted in here yet?

You know im in bitch! (spectation only).

Just didn't want to say anything because i'd jinx the weather! Just got back from WSID, a top night of "off-street" racing (yeah right!).

Weather was 100% perfect!

On track action was great, pleeeennty of tough cars about. They still lack abit of organisation, yes it was way better this year than previous years but their is still way too much time between events.

Something they seriously need to do is either make the sat nite burnouts start earlier (I left at 11:30pm and the line had barely moved) or they need to order all the tough cars up the front so the crowd isnt watching VL's with blown turbo's spray oil everywhere.

Hopefully my car will be on the road this time next year to participate in the cruises.

We could not get any traction on the dyno, best I could do was 501KW to the wheels. Could only get about 150kph any gear bebore it was errupting in smoke. Third run it threw the power steering pump belt because of the spinning so that was it for me, could not participate in the driving events. Next time will try different tyre setup and some sandbagging.

But it was a great weekend I must say.

:(

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • 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.
