If they made it so you could have 1000hp and make it realistic, it would suck for racing. 1000hp in a skyline would make boost high in the rev range so you'd find yourself have to drop an extra gear on some corners just to keep it on boost. That sort of poweris ok for drags but not that great for track work

Not trolling GT5 and or PS3. This is totally router dependant. You might need to exclude the PS3 IP and or MAC address. You might need to put the PS3 in the routers DMZ. There are a number of options

How are people going with the drift events? I find it pretty damn hard! Anything with a decent amount of power in it I keep spinning out or coming off the track. I try to power oversteer to gain contr

Latest round of seasonal events is a bit stupid. Bugger all money or points. They are more like normal races in the game. There are 4 different race types (FF, FR, 4wd and ferrari - F1 cars). There are power limits on the first 3. Hope the ferrari races give better prizes than the ff ones.

Yep. It says that your car has no restriction on mods.

Let us know how you go with the Ferrari challenge. I hope the rewards are worth it - I don't fancy dropping 10 or 12.5 mil on a ferrari F1 car, only to get a few hundred grand as prizemoney.

It's around 133k per race in the Ferrari bit, they are tough though I tried 3 or 4 times this arvo with only traction control but I keep spinning out, I'll give it another few goes tonight but I think I won't be able to win without Skid Recovery on.

No more big prize money but finally somewhere good to race the F1 cars.

why did they stop the huge amounts of points and money..that was what made you keep going with aspec, otherwise your doing indy 200 laps over and over or laguna seca..

BTW, how long does the suzuka 1000 take in an x1, thats my next endurance race????

I'm about 2.5 million short of the 2010 f1, so i won't be doing those races

bought the formula GT recently...def cant afford a fezza F1 car. thats pretty fun to drive.

I have the F10 and the F2007 and am happy to lend them out if you guys actually do want to do the races, I just finished R246 and it was pretty fun though I ended up using skid recovery because I kept spinning out without it.

made the same mistake as I did- you get one of those from a gift car ticket >_<

I'd have over 16m CR if I hadn't bought that

Bob's doing the 24h Le Mans right now :)

Pit strategy is pretty useless for such a race I just leave it on default.

yeah I remember the big lag you get with the 1100hp GTR's but that's the fun part, trying to catch it when the boost comes on tap :P don't need traction control :)

But even an R35 can't push that much out, and this is for the track. There's bolt on kits for every day driving that pull more than the 850 flywheel hp that's the max of the R35 tuning in GT5. I think it's more the case that they don't want someone with a 150k car beating the pants off the high end cars.

All 6 of my Bob's are now at Level 40. Next stop is to get the X1 over 100,000km. Quite close now, that thing has been so very heavily beat on.

Still waitng for the long-tail F1 GTR to show up in the UCD :rant: I've seen the Silk Cut le mans Jag twice now :( I hope i'm not missing something here, like your A-spec level needing to be 30+ or sumsing (doubt it though)

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.

      Skyline v36 350GT sedan hunting on idle

      By Robot · Posted

      Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣

      After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
