Both will teach you lots of good info!!!

Well done for giving it ago!! I have done a few days with Luffy in the past, been "entertaining!" cant say much about the EC mob as havent dealt with them.

Eitherway - enjoy the day and learn lots!

ive done both causes at EC - stage one is emergency breaking and swerving (boring but very important)

stage 2 is oversteer and understeer (really fun :P ) and taught me soooo much about my car.... you cant do stage 2 untill you have done stage 1

stage 1 is 255 as you said and stage 2 is 300

I have done stage 2 with EC driver training.

Only complaint was I couldn't rip skids as good as the instructors :P

Im going to be doing one of these soon as well. I don't think you could go wrong with either of them.

Anyone know if you can go straight to stage 2? stage 1 doesn't sound very interesting im after how to handle a car on a track/ performance driving.

Im sure you could if you pleaded your case to them Jason?

I was able to do stage 3 straight away - but havent done it yet as I dont need my cams PC licence just yet

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
