This is one of my Life long goals to drive this track

Mine too!

This is arguably the best drivers circuit in the world. i would love to do it, but money is the key. it would be a dream to drive this circuit in my own car or any car for that matter!

I have screws loose. Here is a chance to earn some money, travel and see the world and I am already looking for cheap thrashers to have some fun in whilst over there

RB20 POWAH shall reign supreme in Europe as well :O

I would but they are still about Aus$30k, i like the idea of hitting burger rings....but perhaps my thinking is off on a tangent :)

troy mate, hitting the burger ring on the first date is not considered good manners in civilised european circles. at least buy her some flowers first...

If enough people go and you all knwo wach other then you should just pool your money and grab an E36 M3. They are as cheap as chips in the UK, this way you can go on a driving holiday to get there and back. Split the cost 4 ways, cheap good laugh. Imagine the smell of 4 lads cruisng accross Europe in an M3. You would need lots ot Tour Support to handle that smell :)

Ahhh, M3 you say, better to grab an M5 I reckon. Four door comfort and at least the rear windows wind down to get rid of the you know what when four blokes get in a car.

The same mate that has that M3 also has this 3.8L M5 (he reckons it's more fun than his 33 GTR w/- 500HP), from memory he paid about 8k for it. Of course we could sell "ours" when we're done if it wasn't rolled up into a ball :)

I wouldn't mind going, provided i had the funds available at the time. Just a minor issue with renting the car @ the track "Minimum age 25"

Hey mate, there is a mob who will hire to under 25's.

Do a search for Nurburgring in here and you'll see a thread with a guy mentioning how he was able to hire a car. Chuck him a PM. He gave me all the details, but I don't have them anymore.

So any others doing this. Weather is starting to clear up and i am on the hunt for a car to use.

Stooopis thing is i can fly to UK for $800 return, yet to get to Frankfurt its $1700 return :D

Roy, public transport in europe is fantastic, and cheap. jump on a train and you'll be border hopping your way there in no time.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
