Oh they'd hold up alright with his driving style....you really have to keep that thing above 6-7k for a while and around long corners and shit to start starving the bearings. Oh, and a dyno at a certain workshop that will not be mentioned will also do it :D

Just run an extra L of oil for track days ;)

Blanchview is free, Nick :P

Non-members still pay a fair bit. I'm not poor but I have reasons to be saving as much as I can at this point in time so I'll have to pass on Happy Laps until things settle down a little on my end.

Moreover, am looking forward to catching up with everybody and any new members that show up :)

BTW, why does everybody think Chris drives his car slow? My reputation is unmatched 'round these parts.

Yeh they do cost a fair bit these days! It's more for the social side of things than anything...kinda forgot that they put it up by like $20 =/ Used to be $30 for non-members grrr

Yeh well I'm an unemployed bum too haha...but I reckon I might end up going yet.

Haha, well, you reckon I drive slow....you should see Chris. I almost stall out when driving off at the lights behind him ;) jk

What's with all the picking on me as to how I drive my car? I drive my car with the respect it deserves. I on the odd occasion give the old girl a squirt and maybe take the revs past 4k. I know I baby the car but if any of you owned it would yous drive it any differently to the way I do?

Anyone is welcome with any car. Except Nick and the General lee ;)

Although hell be there come hell or high water. :/

I wasn't giving you sh1t? I'd do the exact same. It's quite refreshing to see one being preserved. :)

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
