Yeah, not bad at all

There were a couple of expreienced drifters there, in particular a black 180 (I think) who put on a pretty good show (arm out window mid-drift etc), but a lot of them were just losing it left right and centre (not saying I could have done better...). But I suppose that is the place to hone your skills :)

A good day all up

Evo83: they're every month or there abouts so there will be others, although less over winter.

Nice shots there warwick :) I'm off to look at the rest, even if extremely painful on dialup.

The last one I went to, and was good fun to watch. Really want to get out there myself, but personally I think it would put a little too much pressure / risk on my car to want to do that.

Now if i had a cheaper car....maybe if i ever turbo the 31 some fun could be had :)

All I need is a VL turbo manifold, old T3, VLT ECU, dial in some relatively low boost and away I go... this doesn't have LSD either.. (yet :)).. anyhow, must not think of modifying the daily driver, must not think of modifying the daily driver! :)

Sure did, n/a's can be made to drift quite nicely. When i went to a skidpan day basically the instructor said "if its RWD, got a handbrake, and at least some go it can be drifted."

Chaos, 04FAT i think is owned by one of the guys that used to be from Drift Kings, but Drift kings died in the ass and is now called Aspley drift and drag...

I had so much fun yesterday, i cant wait for the next drift meet.

I think i did ok for my 2nd meet though! i will upload videos at a later date.

    • 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.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
