mine is fine.. maybe you broke something?

Nah nothing. Everything went straight in according to Scott car drives fine. Just idle lol.

They arent nismo they are megan ones. But essentially the same. Maybe I shouldve just gone nismo

Kinda off topic, kinda not....I would like to If I may talk clutches.....

what are ppl using thesedays? With what power, usage of vehicle and longevity?

I would like some recommendations please....but not of extreme....as it appears my years of support of them and my purchase of many(probably around 6 id recon) clutches still doesnt deem me important enough of a response from them....so they can shove it.....(this is the 2nd time I"ve contacted them with null response....grrrrr end rant)

Does anyone have the hookups for clutches at a better price? Its been so long since I've been in the trade now...wahhh retail hurts..

Want me to bump the idle up a bit? Perhaps its harmonics at that idle speed?

I heard something banging underneath the front too when you took off, perhaps the cooler pipe? Could you be feeling that through the wheel somehow?

I'm running an exedy HD organic, not huge power 180-190 rwkw but lasted me near on 3 years of track use so pretty happy with that.

Haha enjoy.

What do you reckon of the new marv creations? Popping candy and jelly bits.

Popping candy tasted good, though I'm guessing it's targeted at kids as pop rocks usually are. The jelly one got stuck in my teeth hard lol, ruined a pod block of chocolate for me...but my mate loved it so meh. I love mousse too, but can't beat the classics sometimes. Do you guys do Top Deck in bar form?

Cooler pipe could be right to some extent seeing as the engine has moved a little.. But I doubt that much. Drive it tonight when I come past

At the moment, I have the Nissan GTR clutch but Racepace will be strengthening it to handle 300+ rwkW.

Or go an Exedy or Nismo Coppermix.

On The Run Motorsport could help you out.

A friend of mine ordered off RHD Japan's website, take a look.

Did you pop your motor? What's planned for it?

I'm using the Nismo Super Coppermix twin plate. Great clutch which can handle a heap of power (400+kw) and it feels like your using a standard clutch.

spoke to jamie at garage cafe one of his pistons was knocking or something, he's getting it rebuilt (forgies) with -5s or similar

Think he wanted -9's. Were trying to convince him to go -5's to make use of his built engine, we'll see if he will succumb to the powah!

But nah -9's great for the street!

Hey Toby accounting question -

Is there a downside to buying a car outright (cash) I mean I know you won't claim interest etc but that's fine cos you don't have to pay it in the first place.

So im guessing the only negative is that you don't have the leverege that keeping the cash at your disposal provides

Does that make sense?

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
