Words Cannot Describe What Some Of U Missed Out.......


Recommended Posts

Can I think out loud for a sec.... that safety car should have a race number and a driver name on it. There... I said it... P*ssoff this one horse race crap and bring back the V8 eater. We can't always ban cars that smash aussie crap can we?

the australian touring car series handicapped the GTR's and everything else that was brutaly quick around the track, mostly to make it more competitive, as for banning it...

... well, im fairly sure group a in general just died.

threads gone from r35 at bp regular meetup to which is the best super car to gtr being banned :P

technically it wasnt banned more so holden n ford packed up there sh*t and started their own series with different rules so they wernt allowed to race i think they were going to run the race without holden n ford but didnt have the marketing/people behind it to keep it going.

many threads on sau, youtube & wikpedia on the subject

Go for a ride in one 12 months ago, then I'll be jealous lol - I'm still one down on Mr Donnon though...

The best thing about R35s is there arent too many going around with god-awful atrocious taped on Bangkok body kits.....at the moment. Give it time :(

BTW Chef one of the CAMS officials that passengers in the safety car was very impressed that we could shift our R35 using those manual paddles behind the steering wheel. You see the safety car crew are not allowed to touch the paddles or switches, and have to leave the car in 'D' for Drive under strict orders from upstairs :P

hey dave

just in case u didnt read facebook status, you're going to hate me AGAIN

you should have hung round for another 10 mins..........you only just left before i got there, and 5 mins afta i got there (and started talkin to luke and flick who seen us pull in)................she pulled in again :P

bah..according to matty t..it was there again on sat night..and knowing my luck..i came into BP about 5 mins AFTER it was there..goddammit

was there to see it last night, quite impressive, guy driving it was a top bloke, had a chat to him for abit. Took a video of it pulling out and disappearing quite quickly, if i have the energy during the week, i'll upload it.

car was insane,he know he offered to let me drive it but every one else would get jealous so i said no, cant be too greedy ya know lol

I did tell the guy when he first pulled up "uh oh, now you've done it. Here come the Skylines Australia club members! Get out while you can" :(

but the funniest part last night was when cara said "she was the best blower on the block"

i think she was talking bout her car

... yes .... she was talking about the car :( ... nothing went on in the back of the Stagea ... nothing! :/

Haha, that's ridiculous - I was going to say what about all the manual safety cars over the years, but all the ones I can think of in recent memory have been autos :S Either way, pretty damn soft on the organiser/clerk-of-course's part. There's no reason why the V8s shouldn't be able to keep up lol

I'll give you a buzz later on this week and bring the N1 out for a drive, if you're around the place.

Dohmar - you're seriously dissing BBS LMs?? Mate, time for a style adjustment!!

Yep. I dont like my cars rims to look like a malvern star's wheels. However if you like pushbikes, go right ahead.

5 or 6 spoke ftw. I see nothing wrong with stock 32/34 gtr rims ;P

-D

I think mesh type rims look good on skylines, even the cheapish starcorp fusion look reasonably good. Much better than impulse...!!

Heh sorry. Whenever I see a car with mesh spokes I think "Standish Spec"...

my only question is...

Does it come in 18 speed version?

-D

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
