Man that article is from January :P It's a shame but only 3 GT-Rs have been pranged so far as far as anyone knows. 2 majorly in SE Asia and one small minor one in Japan.

You know it wont be the last time Sewid.

If the Donut boys get it wrong in Tassie...welll.. lets just keep our fingers crossed that doesnt happen.

So far five have been trashed at Fuji Speedway and three at Tsukuba. Apparently their black box blacks out when things get over a certain limit and sends itself, and the car, into the closest wall.

I seriously doubt that, it may be what the drivers excuse is though

Stephen youre going to have to qualify that comment cause it sounds like bullshit to me.

Hmm normally something like that many cars would come up on my radar but I haven't seen anything yet. I'm not doubting you im just wondering how to get more info.

How can you tell that. Must be a few silver ones going around.

This photo was taken at the Shinagawa NHPC though. I've had that confirmed by someone who went there Friday.

2 which have been reported. One smashed in HK, now one smashed in Malaysia, but yeah, probably more have bitten it as well...

i'm sorry, i'm asian (well half) and when i got to the mostly asian suburbs for food, whatever... IMO the driving is proportional worse than other areas... which i think is more due to what they're use to experiencing, rather than a deficiency of skill. It's not horribly unsafe driving, just 'bad' driving. Not saying all are bad, perhaps that there is an over-representation of bad driving in predominantly asian suburbs

have you driven in Malaysia? that's some scary shit right there my friend... but that's just the normal for that part of the world...

yup i agree, if you have driven in indonesia, Philipina, vietnam or whatever you'll know that it's not 'asian' that can't drive but it's the way they drive, there barely any rule axcept red light...

and they think white boys can't drive either 'coz you guys follow rules..

If the car is being "thrashed" the ECU drops into limp mode.

This has been an issue on one of the US R35's

I would imagine if your right up it and half way round a corner it cuts the power that might be enough to loose it.

Ill guarentee it will be one of the first electronic mods that will become available for the R35 " deactivating Limp mode"

I've thrashed a R35 and it didn't suddenly go into limp mode. 4,000 people have thrashed their R35's and they didn't go into limp mode.

There is a limp mode but it's got nothing to do with thrashing the shit out of the car.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
