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...........................................................................

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...

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
