Quote from mario @ the preformance forums.

The site is undergoing major restructuring and the server should be back online later this week.

I'm back in Switzerland at the moment, so I have a bit of time to spend on reworking alot of the stuff.

Mario.

No mention of any financial problems.

Also just thinking about it he wouldnt be getting into any financial trouble example at the start of his project he didnt want any sponsorship and then got alot of interest about his car and hence why he has all these logos brands etc on his car..so funds etc would be rolling in if not then he would get some more sponsors.

rumours...well unless i know thats it has some fact behind it then i dont really listen to stuff that someone just heard from a friends friend if you know what i mean. Personally even if he had some financial trouble its not out problem its his business and what he does to his gtr is his deal. BUt oh well it is what it is....my 2 cents.

haha, I must have posted in the wrong thread....please note this picture has *nothing* at all to do with the content of this thread

*edit* forget it, too hard :D forum doesnt let you post the same picture twice in a thread, even if youve deleted the first one.

From SDU:

The server is offline due to a failure at my host.

It's been replaced and the site should be back online later this weekend, providing their backups are ok.

The car will run on the 14th of February, at either Drag Combat at WSID or Adelaide at the Nationals.

Mario.

    • @Supernanoyour car has ended up in my hands and I was wondering if there has been any work done to the motor?  
    • Sigh... yeah OEM mount rear battery, very R33, very demure, very mindful.
    • Would need a substantial current draw in the car to make a bunch of sparks. Obvs to now test resistance to ground of the car's B+ lead. If there's a short there, you'll see it. Only likely place for that, as you suspect is alternator. But there is also the possibility that rats have had a chew on some insulation. Shitbox has the battery in the boot, yeah? Plenty of cable to attack.
    • Oh, I thought of that too... I disconnected the battery and hooked up the leads direct to the car without the battery in place. Sparks... I suspect the following: Alternator has decided to kill itself Starter has decided to kill itself I'll recharge the battery, then unplug both, and go from there. The above might take 6 months - however I did buy a Victron 15 AMP trickle charger, apparently it's better than CTEK? Amazon, delivery by tonight. https://www.amazon.com.au/Victron-Battery-Charger-15-Amp-waterproof/dp/B07P4LMMMD?ref_=ast_sto_dp
