Dont worry brah... I have seen this situation before... you'll get it running again... even if you have to overnight parts from japan

But I don't have my car anymore.

Its sold to import monster lol

I'll jog your memory...

You were reported to have died on 1 May 1994, as a result of your car crashing into a concrete barrier while you were leading the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Italy.

as a result of your injuries and now crispy brown skin, you decided to hide away from all the attention as a young sri lankan man living in Australia... you adopted the name Aaron, because it was the first name in the book.

From here you continued to live undercover as a simple car enthusiast, however at one fateful sandown trackday, your raw talent simply could not be hidden!

Here you kept up with far more powerful cars including stagea's skylines, ferraris, radicals, zonda's, pagani's and mclarens.

It was at this point that I realised that I am extremely bored at work... and that YOU... MUST... BE... SENNA...

don't forget as I read on jalopnic this week

lost his virginity to a fat Prostitute at age 13..

Senna that is

I beg to differ, I wAs keeping up fine with the 240kw plus cars down the straight at sandown. It's a very under estimated car

Given above 150kph, is when they start to pull away

Even gave Scott a run for is money in the 350kw Stagea. He only pulled away at 120kph.

Hence why he bought one lol

I want to see this first hand. Not saying I don't believe you

Tonight

Your car vs say Simon/Birds

Roll on from say 70km/h. That's about the exit speed at Sandown onto the coming straight

pulled away at 120...so the start of the straight?

who doing 70 on the start there ,

I'm exiting the corner at around 100-110....

was painfull at rexmas,

got out of the corner great full power down the straight,

Chris Madden going past around 50-60 km/h faster...damn that 330kw...

you are different to other amatuer drivers martin

If you were talking about overtaking me on the straight, that's because I was trying my hardest not to let my engine lean out ;)

Really need to fix that...

Edit:

I wonder if that could have been the cause of the lower power figure on the last tune...

Assuming that a single dyno pull in 4th gear doesn't completely suck all the pressure out of the system but only drops it slowly towards the end... So the upper part of my rev range could have been running at say 80% of the fuel pressure it should be running at. If it was consistant, then that would have been included/accounted for in the tune right?

Pulling hard through 2nd / 3rd / 4th was leaning it to the point of misfire / detonation, so not a great feeling on the straight.

I THINK that the Walbro 255 is affected more by a lower voltage source than a stock pump or the bosch 040 that was in there beforehand... So if I wire up a direct feed to it with a relay coming off the ECU wire, it should pump more...

But will it also have a 100% speed whine all of the time instead of varying at Idle speeds? aka, stupidly loud?

I was more so talking about corner speed of that turn before the straight

Me?

Nah blue wrx, told me 230kw. If its false then that would explain it

My GTS-T is currently running it's 252kw safe tune...we can test this "Evo is the fastest car in the world" theory tonight...but I think I know the answer already. Short gearing means SFA in a rolling drag, unless you have a substantially higher redline than me and can carry the gear for longer...it just means I have to drop down a gear to be as short as you, comprende? You get the impression that 4th gear is fast going onto the freeway because it's probably the same ratio as 3rd in a Skyline...nothing Criss Angel about it.

On an unrelated note, there's a golf r that always fangs it past my work every day at about this time... God damn they sound sick on gear change with an exhaust, brrrrraaaaaaa CRACK brrraaaaaaaaaaaaa CRACK brrrrraaaa

That driver should be considerate and yell 'FORE!' before fanging it past your work.

How ironic that you would say that... Look what is across the road from my workplace...

Boss's Porsche Boxster has been hit a few times by stray balls...

Meh, its only a Boxster...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
