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!

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
