spose i wasnt actually at vilis, lol.

spotted damo (i think) out past modbury near some random blockbuster and takeaway joint about2 hours ago, i was heading out as you were heading in, gave a wave.

Did not spot. Incognito? I was keeping my eye on that supra, gave me the death stare after he came out of blockbuster :down:

sooo many imports around the bay area around 7 to 8ish. Burgandy 32 parked near the watermark\buffalo, large sau sticker on back. Silver 32 with bn kit, rims etc parked down down side street at bay. shannon (sx appeal) and kelly (dior 33) also parked down there.

haha, yeah, noticed that guy too, he looked happy. was driving maybe 5 metres in front of you, made a bit of accidental noise on the way out too.

flick, im pretty sure that was actually a dark blue/black 32 with big SAU sticker on back window, parked at the wigley reserve parks.

Also spotted Lyndon in his 34gtr down bay earlier today, white wheels look awesome.

Saw that 32gtr pictured a few posts up too, had another 32 infront of him driven by a chick with a few different coloured panels.

And a burgundy 32 with plates HR32 on anzacs twice

Couple of other random 32's and 33's, so many out today, made me wish i still had a skyline to street around in.

Spotted a maroon r32 as I started my run into the gorge about 8:45pm tonight .. gave a quick wave, but as we were going around a corner in opposite directions, I'm sure they would have missed it .. haha ... mostly pretty quiet tonight when i was out ..

oh, haha my bad. Was a burgandy one parked there anyhow aswell.

seen a dark blue shelby cobra(replica no doubt) with a really high roll bar ruins the look a lil

its the same 1 i seen about a year ago, owner looks majorly old school (like 80s) and he still gives it some gas, bit weird to see :P

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
