Hey that Motokhana sounds like fun... I don't think that I can afford the entry fee however I will hopefully be cool to go down for a look... anyone else interested?? I wouldn't mind entering the one in Gracemere if it was a bit cheaper... it would be a good blast...

Hey and there was definatly a Skyline at the Drags with NOS... however a very good source also said that it wasn't all it should have been... maybe a bit more tuning or something required... but someone should definatly keep their ears to the ground on that one because it could be something to look out for...

Oh... and Jay I openly admit that I might be a tiny bit out of practice with my Wet Dorift action...... we only see rain once a century up here... new turbo, injectors and a health spot of 9 Pound boost as compared to 6 pound meant that the Silvia was just a tiny bit more sideways in the rain than normal... BUT IT WAS FUN!!!

Jay could you be talked into running the Cefiro at a Motokhana... I mean dorift event... no i'm sure it is called a bitchumen Motokhana... and it would be pretty fun to see the cefiro bagging in up...

Actually we should get Dev and Rick and Willo in on the action... it would be fun to have three GTR's at the motorkhana... It would make it interesting to see how they went compared to the lighter and more nimble 2WD's.... hmmm I think it should be done...

hey shauno... there is no great trick to getting your flywheel off... although I highly recommend that you have a mate on hand so that he can help hold the Flywheel in place... Just make sure you are pulling the socket at a neat 90 deg angle to the flywheel... the only time that the socket will jump off and reck the bolt is when you are pulling at the wrong angle... believe us... us spankers know about pulling at the wrong angle and how much it can HURT!... but it is definatly easier with two people on the job so you don't have to worry about holding the flywheel...

That is true Jay... but then neither do most of us... I was impressed with Zebal in that VL commodore... he had that thing pretty sideways... talk about Aussie drift... impressive.... and we have hurt that young VR driver bad... I don't think he knew what a handbrake was.... now he won't stop yanking on it to get a bit of 180 deg action happening... hey I guess there is no easier way to turn around in a hurry... But they were really giving it their all out there!!

Yeah it is definatly a sweet sight as that young aussie battler hangs the arse of his Commodore out, and in desperatation grabs his blinkers as he magically comes smoking out of the corner in a blaze of tyre smoke and a small dab of fear... it is almost music to my ears... such a sweet sight... I remember when I did my first drift...........................................................................

Hey you have to talk to Willo about upgrading that Internet Site... it is about time we got some more info for him to put up... actually when we catch up tonight we will through some ideas around...

Are you going to get willo to come for a Lap or what... Cefy with new wheels... a couple of GTR's what more could the lap scene in Rocky need...

Actually to all that didn't see it... check it out on www.garagespank.tk under members... when it had 18" 5 spokes on it... It looked Jap Racer... very very cool... but now he has big shinies... and it looks pimping... very very cool... have I mentioned that Squizz's Cefy looks very very cool!!

actually other than Nismo and Jishwa every one of us Spankers has over 17" wheels... most of them being 18".... that is very very cool... very cool...

Hey Jay I just have one question about your info on the members site... what exactly is R24 Bayside Blue... is that any different to R34 Bayside blue... it just I'm sure it's a cool colour... is it anything like a Maxima blue... you know... the colour you get from DC motors favourite Family car??

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
