Do we have definitive photographers for the day? If so, can we pay them and get all the shots of our cars (hopefully lots) in RAW format or NEF or whatever, sent on a DVD? :)

Would love gorgeous hi-res shots for me to fiddle with to my heart's content...

I'll fibd out for you

Theres usually 4/5 pro's there taking pics

Pfft skidz?

Last time i smoked them i got told off! Should be called "Chirp on Sunday"

They just don't like your skids. My skids got me an award at last texi ("Best thrashing" AKA "Cassbo, please use this award as incentive to maintain your car") :D

I'm still trying to find out if Ill be in Sydney, bloody well better be, Ive got my "gotta do a skid" itch going on, trying not to hit the cones whilst doing said skids and getting around the course in a decent time is something that I'm sure will need some work.

hey execs, heads up if there is another payment for texi coming ur way under my user name. the name of the person its for is Andrej Zecevic.

and Doof, can you put him on the list? thanks baby!

Haha

You're a true hoon. Its not "burnouts cause my right foot got stuck sunday" :whistling:

On this topic though, im hoping we can allow screamers here but thats an ongoing debate, ill sms you if that gets approved

No it's called "That's not a burnout... That's from my turbo seals being blown on Sunday"

hey there,

I'm a mate of MSD-00F's and probably going to come along for this.

Quick question: As far as secondary bonnet restraints are concerned, apparently its in the CAMS rules now that the majority of standard bonnet latches qualify for this because they actually feature two completely independent mechanisms. Mine is definitely like this. The first restraint releases when you pull the lever in the cabin and the second when you lift the little tab at the front of the bonnet. neither one of them affects the operation of the other.

Do you reckon this'll pass scrutineering?? I hear its basically up to whoever's checking it on the day, and they can be lame about it.

Also, "fire extinguisher in reach of driver" or something, would in the passenger foot-well be fine?

Just don't want to get there on the day and be knocked back, raging would ensue..

Cheers!

im unsure about the bonnet latch thingy as im still tryna figure out the same thing for mine :)

but yes the passenger foot-well is the perfect spot for it. most ppl out theirs there.

SEE YA THERE ANDREJ :woot:

At the previous Texi I don't think you needed a secondary (or tertiary as the case may be) restraint to pass scrutineering. I'm sure an official will confirm shortly.

In the event that an extra restraint is required, I have seen many ways that this can be achieved. You can use a belt, a bit of rope or go and make something similar to what I have... 5kfyn9.jpg

As for a fire extinguisher, pretty much any where you can reach from the driver's seat is a good location for it. Mine is located behind the passenger seat

Actually, there is a guide on mounting fire extinguishers. It might be specific to R33s, but it will give a rough idea what you can do :)

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
