Well I'm going to tread hijack a little here cause I can't be bothered making a new topic.

The Skidpan day was a damn good giggle today. Thanks to Dereck and all the lads that came out for a spin. For those of you who were their (you know who you are) send me a PM and I'll link you to some of the photos I took. Don't really want to publicly post them without your permission.

See everyone at the next day, and remember . . . keep your chin up!

Can't be bothered making a new topic again.

Are any of the usual suspects heading out to the pan tomorrow, 31st January?

Just wondering if you are, and you're one of the lads with a "ECUTalk Consult," if you'd be willing to bring it along and let me try it on my r33. If you're not coming out or you can't be bothered removing it from your car it's no big deal, but if you're there and it's convenient and your willing to I'd like to give it a try.

Cheers,

Rob.

i'm interested in getting my car out on te skid pan and playing around with it..

how do i go about it?

i hear you guys always talking about, i would love to get my car out there.

thanks

just come out tomorrow and talk to Derek, he will let you know when the next one is on and ask him to reserve you a spot..

if you cant talk to him then see if you can get intouch with ZCR, TURISMO or Mccready as they are regulars out on the skidpan and i believe that 1 if not all of them will be there tomorrow

Thanks TURISMO, but don't go out of your way. If it was gonna be nice and handy I would like to test it out for 5 min or so. I've already spoken with the guys who make them and have been placed on the mailing list for the next batch, but would have liked to try one before hand. If you're gonna be in the area it would be sweet, but like I said, don't go out of your way for it.

Appreciate the offer though.

drool, is that black 4 door the autech replica? dang it two other 4 door skylines there, anyone going to the skidpan day on the 15th? Does derek have to do DB readings on cars now? damn.

yea it seems if your car looks loud he'll do the DB check. as long as its not stupidly loud he doesnt mind. had it done to my friend's car at the one i organised a few weeks ago lol

i might go to the one on the 15th, money pending and whether my suspension will be in by then

great pics anthony! sorry the SAU sticker is soo dirty!

what time did you get to the skid pan shell? we were in the morning session. i won't be out there on the 15th, i'll be there on the 22nd at a private booking instead

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
