LOL - Did DV let you take that out??? Shame he couldn't get his issues with the limiter fixed; it hurt his times BADLY

I had a day I'd like to forget; got through the first session then in the second I couldn't hold boost under full load. It would rev to about 4k and then flutter and not want to rev any more where it would hold holding around 11psi; it's normally at 16. Checked the hoses and what not but no luck in fixing the issue.

Any suggestions on what it might be?

Ok cool - I enter through the WRX club; I was in the white R33.

No worries about not saying hi, I probably should have and dam that's a quick car you have too. I was out after my 1st lap in the second session and was too irritated after that so was not in that great a mood for socializing. Haha

PS Good luck for Targa

What happened to Leif? Obviously sounds like he smashed but how?

Yeah I managed to bin the car. I figure seeing as ppl are asking, I might as well explain what happened.

I got a little too keen into turn one, ran wide on the exit and put the right rear on the grass. That unsettled the car and it went spearing back across to the left, toward the inside of the track. I tried to countersteer back into it but it happened too quick and the car swapped ends. I left the track on the outside of the road between turn one and two, skated across the grass backwards and hit the concrete on the outside. Rear left hit first, then the front left. I'm pretty sure the car is a write off, but I don't know a lot yet.

I am fine. I had some whiplash to the neck and so went to the hospital as a precaution. They did xrays and stuff to make sure there was no spinal damage and it all came back fine. They discharged me after about 2hrs, so I would say that on the whole, I've been quite lucky! To be honest, I was just sitting there feeling bad that I was cutting into everyone else's track time whilst they cleared my car!

I have already spoken to quite a few people, but just wanted to say thankyou again for all the support I received. I have had so many queries about my wellbeing, and offers of help to get back out there. I am really humbled and appreciate people's concern a lot.

good to hear your ok Leif, didnt see the smash but saw the aftermath of the car.

i like how all you were worried about was taking peoples track time, very considerate but you had nothing to worry about, im sure we can all agree safety for you was the only thing people were worrying about.

Sorry to hear that was your car on Sunday but glad to hear you're okay. I didn't see you go off but saw the aftermath and that was a nasty hit

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Duncan · Posted

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
