Hey, looks like a good day out, I got called in to work so couldnt make it.

Ended up spending an 8 hour day fault finding machinery that works faultlessly 90% of the time....

Who's yellow S2 with 350z rims did I see on Orrong rd this morning?

Keen for the next run to the hills.... damn now I have maiden in my head.

PS: Thanks for the invite on my windscreen at ADGP chuckie....

looks like a good day. i was not able to come was out with friends and having to much fun driving a 34gtr lol.

yo guys i have a misfiring prob with the stag.

i have changed my plugs , coilpacks now r34 gtr with low ks on them and cleaned my afm.

the old plugs where just copper bcpr6e-11 the new 1s that auto pro gave me are bcpr6es.

i have regaped my new plugs form .8 to .7

the misfire is only at idle and u can feel it more when in gear. was told by mel at evoR to take the throttle body off and clean it.

is there any thing else u guys can think of that might cause this?

i know a bit about cars but i not know what else it could be

i found out after trying my old coil-packs, it was not the packs

then tried my old plugs and all was good.

also found out that the new plugs auto pro gave me have a higher running temp.

so not know if that would make a diff but the old 1s seem to work so will get some new 1s of the same type.

next Q how hard is it to change my s1 auto to a s2 man? and what stock ecu can i run?

I lost my tailgate nissan badge on the way home.... you can see it was going in the photo where we turned left onto West Coast Highway. In the photo where we turned onto South Terrace it had gone!

Probably happened at the right turn at the end of the traffic bridge.... that's what you get for hard acceleration I guess. Anyone got a spare?

      I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low

      In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.

      Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info

      It looks like you've got Ikeya control arms and an aftermarket sway bar, maybe whiteline?  Or am I just going crazy? lol Unfortunately it won't, but what it will do is look really pretty. That's about all unfortunately.  How much neg camber do you currently have? Generally lowing the car dials in quite a bit of neg camber as it is. If you do go down this path, your best bet is get adjustable arms, toe arms (or preferably a good HICAS elimination kit) and traction rods. With all 3 being adjustable, you'll be able to dial out any bump steer that is introduced by playing with the camber settings.
