Stevesn just upset cos u r whoring his thread, but we all know he whores everyone elses...

nah, just trying to redirect Matt away from this whole drag thing, and it worked:p

The signal guys will be here for a few days at least. James has a lot of spares there, so most things shouldnt be a problem - its amazing what you can source on short notice if you have to. Signal can make things happen pretty quick too, James got some tyre sent out from Japan within days for the Melb drift comp because signal made a phone call for him. they have alot of sway with other companies in Japan, PLUS they have a huge number of bits on the shelves over there - so when the manager of Signal calls and tells them to make something happen, it will. (Hiko san, the manager of Signal will be out too, he is the owners brother, so if he cant make things happen, they were never meant to be)

Fuel, well thats easy, just drain and refill.

If everything goes pie eyed, well thats just the nature of the beast - it does happen. But this sort of opportunity wont come knocking too often. If I worry too much about what might go wrong, then I would probably never get anything done. Spose all I can do is prep the car the best I can, plugs, fuel filter, make sure there isnt anything else obviously wrong and leave the rest to the gods:)

AFAIK its still going ahead - have to check. James was trying to get it orgainised for mid May to coincide with the Drift day - he mentioned Bai was planning on heading over at the same time so he could carve up Mallala.

I will have to confirm dates, unless autObarn is out there and can confirm?

Hi all

seeking expressions of interest

D1 Garage are looking like getting Signal Japan's top tuner out here to perform their magic, they will be bringing all the laptop software for Japanese ECUS.  

It wont be cheap, expect to pay between $1000 and $1500 for a full tune - not just power, but a full map from idle.

Whilst this isnt cheap, it is quite good value for a japanese tuning guru to come over and get the best possible safe performance from your car.  

Numbers available, currently need 5 cars to make it worth while for the tuner to come out - air fairs hotel accomodation etc.  

currently 3 spots are pretty much spoken for

Anyway guys, please put the word out, I would really love to see what these guys can do with my car - this is pretty close to a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Hey Man, put me down on your list, i have a fussy bit at the top of my rev range no-one seems to be able to get rid off! I have no problem paying as long as i get a wicked tune! :aroused:

I wonder who I sent it to then?????? Sent one seconds after my last post on this thread?

I actually have bad news. Signal are going to be busy around mid May - just found out today:( I checked with James, and he is negotiating for another date, but he doesnt want to commit until it is confirmed - shouldnt be too long though.

I will definately let you know as soon as its confirmed.

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
