my car was faultless and performed brilliantly all weekend only issue i had was a bend tie rod and castor rod bracket being out of wack after a hard hit when tom monkhouse spun in front of me. steering wasnt the same afterwards but being the drifter i am i made do with what i had. was running some crazy toe out at the end... something like 30mm out. flicks in HARD hahaha.

Your car looked good out Simon, the rear screen sunvisor thing is cool!

Fixed the video links, for some reason youtube provides the wrong links for original hot-linking.

Your code:

What it needs to be:

It's the extra "&hd=1" thats telling the video to go to HD 720p, it doesn't like to be hotlinked for some reason, might be cause HD video wont work in a forum size box as well. Will look into it anyway.

You were out @ opposite sessions to us which was a bit of a PITA. Next time hopefully it'll workout a bit different with sessions.

Plus us Track Battle guys all know each other, so we all went to a pub (about 10mins away) for lunch both days as we had 2.5hrs between mornin/arvo sessions so i think we spent a good 1.5hrs chillin there enjoying Lemonades... :cheers:

I reckon it was a great event, you drift guys really did some epic carnage to your cars and each other. At one point we were trying to pick which cars weren't gonna come back with damage, was great viewing indeed! Was really well run from the Track guys perspective.

How bout you guys? Looked like it was running well?

cheers. i wish it was a tad louder... if my car sounded like that Red 33 high tech oils one i'd be quite happy haha.

was a great event.. as you said mega carnage. was my good mate in the blue 32 who wrote it off earlier on in the sat so was a real damper on the moods to start with. very un forgiving layout but we all had fun. as you can see drifters are a uncaring bunch.. most were going for broke lol.

the time attack stuff was a great idea to put with it... it gives the crowds something else to watch. and the sounds from the cars going full noise all the way round the dome while standing in the middle of it is brillant! i had no idea what sort of times people were doing as the PA down our end of the pits was lacking big time!

    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
    • these are not the same
    • Best kept secret for seized bolts is crayons... Heat the sucker up with a torch, and push/melt crayon into it. Works a wonder. See if I can go 2 from 2 for you on how to get your bolts out...
