Think we're going down to the drags for a look, I won't be racing unless money starts to grow on trees and i can fix my car up within a few weeks. Doubt my gearbox will ready by then either. not sure when the black beast will be ready but i don't think that soon, its coming together quicker now though. Until i get my new car I'm staying out of racing for a bit.

ouch that suck you haven't though about contacting jms at all willo?

I've been keeping an eye on their site but haven't seen any pull type clutches go through. I would assume they can find whatever I want but a lot of other places probably can as well. At this stage I'm thinking about waiting and getting something new, a lot less hassle.

Autobarn. They have a pile of them in the cabinet. I was a pretty technical proceedure but I'll outline the basics for all those wishing to purchase said product.

1) Go into Autobarn.

2) Speak to closest Autobarn employee and say "High Octane 4"

3) Take DVD back to counter.

4) Pay for DVD (or not but I didn't feel like running and I'd like to go back there)

5) Leave.

Any Questions?

She does what she's told. :/

Here's a photo I took from three weeks ago.

Correct me if I'm wrong (which I probably am) but don't Daikin make some awesome clutches? Although I think they're european.

THere was plenty of High Octane 4 DVD's in Autobarn today about 20 minutes after Squizz was in there too.

Oh and the dude thats been canning Dev's old 33 is in fact Briscoe's sun he's been driving it home every after noon of late. and gods it's sad when he pulls up preparing to drive up his driveway only to sit there chrunching and searching for gears for a few minutes.

I think I saw Fro pulled over last night. Did he get of alright? Or was it major defect time? I hope not. See everyone around.

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
