And BU5TER, the more things change, the more they stay the same. There are a heap of people still 'talkin' it up' that are yet to see a racetrack.

I have infinitely more respect for wreckedhead who talks it up and actually RACES than someone who gives him or anyone else sh1t and sits at home being a f^&*#ng keyboard warrior.

Jeeze Ad, chill out dude! You're startin' to get some serious attitude comin' across in these posts.

Bottom line... who cares what people say (or in this case type) walk the walk and there's no need to talk. You, wreckhead, buster and co are doin' the walkin'.

Cheers,

Matt

thanks buster and 2rismo, hope to see you both at the track, so we can talk about these keyboard warriors which were mentioned earlier. anyways as for

Did u get high off the fumes when u were pouring it into your tank??

god damn pouring is easy, but driving in the car on the freeway with the window open and cant close it casue aircon wastes all the C16, after i get out of the car i feel like ive been druged for the whole week. but its all good.

whatsisname, it's all good mate. I am just constantly tormented by people either:

a/ Talking sh1t and not backing it up

OR

b/ Posting on here without engaging their brains

That's all... :P

yeah i was there, my best was 11.5 @ 120mph, got the new clutch but couldnt get the take off right, doesnt matteri was running most on bp premium so im happy with that for now, when i get used to the launches ill try again.

Best of the night was 12.679 @ 114.71 mph.

The rest of the night was launch practice. Mental note, "Riding the clutch from 6500rpm is great for 1.9 60' times but 3rd gear doesn't work". hehehe...

Basically it's still a learning curve and I learned that 5500 launches ROCK! Was down on power the whole night. Will remove melty plugs and change for 8's before next week.

hey adrian did you watch my last run, from inside the car i felt like i was all over the road, backed off first gear casue i thoguht i was gonna go into the wall. sory had to leave right after that didnt have time to chat.

would be good if you got a in the car run.

I am considering this for next time. Need one of those camera mounts from the Group Buy section I think. Either that or gaffer tape my dvcam to the passenger headrest... lol

If anyone was paying close enough attention on Wednesday, did my car seem to lose traction at about half-3/4 track? Not necessarily wheelspin, more side to side in the tail end of the car. It felt very floaty at the top of 3rd that's for sure. Scary shit.

I was telling my wife to do the same thing with our camera.. I may make up a standard Skyline camera mount... :)

Nice run 2rismo,

i was driving the blue mx5 in one of your races, i pulled a 12.9 @ 106mph that run with pretty crappy tyres hence the shitty launcehs i was doing to prevent too much wheelspin.. Will be out again soon with my new 3" dump pipe/ebc and some stickier drag radiald, hoping to get mid to low 12's..

Anyway it was cool lining up with an r33 as i used to own one...

Take it easy and might run into ya again sometime..

Cheers,

Shmick_R33, The MX-5 looked like the driver was having fun :) Say hello next time!

Brent_r33, nice work with the 13.5. You should come say hi too! :O

DJ_L3ThAL, If you liked that pic, what about this one?!?!?

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
