Went to see these badboys over the weekend just gone and it was well worth the money!

The cars in the flesh are nuts and the sound of the R35 GT cars at full throttle is soooo sex! even tho they use the V8.

The NSX's are another thing all together.....the 3.2L V6 screams like a banshee!!

Cusco WRX and the RE-Amemiya FD also gave the eardrums a good old thrashing.

For those of you use to the V8 supercars here, the GT cars just blew me away!!

As for the circuit, we dont have anything in aus that comes close!

If anyone gets the chance to go to sepang i thoroughly endorse it, the track and facilities are amazing....

anyways heres a few happy snaps to share with you lot......

farkk...those cars a bombed..

how was malaysia?..any good car performance shops or alot jap cars on the streets?

I didnt see many around KL but there were heaps in the carpark at sepang, even a handful of farrari's (custom paint and bling)

they have their own local D1 comp which i didnt know, had full dori spec S15 and hatchi on display (got a few pics)

also had 3 hard tuned R34's on display (one with GT bodykit and full matte black paint) and a couple of R33's...........all GTR's mind you

and a few EVO's, supra's, R32 Golfs and Lotus's all road going but pretty heavily modded, few caged, semi slicks etc.....

could find any tuning shops, but i was mostly in the central KL area..... most car/bike shops are located on the fringes.

with KL, like japan, you gotta go into the county side to find all the tuning shops. Sepang's nuts, and the GT brings out all the Waja warriors on the roads. Mind you there's a healthy sprinkling of ceffies, s13's and toyotas in the mix, not to mention the guys who make the yearly pilgrimage from Singapore (these guys usually bring the expensive cars) and Thailand (the 1JZ crazy country).

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      My BMW 335i

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
