I did the same a couple years ago, the instructor didn't let me go past 4k rpm. As soon as boost starts to kick in, he was like change gears! Started yelling at me to change gears when I didn't lol.

Loved it when they took drove around the back track though.

Think this largely depends on the instructor you get and how many laps you sign up for.

First 8 laps of mine were in the evo and the instructor was making me change into 4th at 60 lol, just to learn the ropes of 4WD slides...but even he didn't mind me redlining 3rd down the straight.

Second 8 laps in the STI was with another instructor and he was telling me to go faster and faster. I asked if they could put me in with him for the hot lap for this reason, then told him I'd requested him specifically. I reckon he let his ego take over cause fk me there were some hairy moments involving trees and concrete tubes. Was scared but calm cause I felt he had total control and I have no idea how he made the car do what it did. Amazing driving ability that I could never dream of having. Many of the instructors compete in ARC, so it's pretty close to the real thing when you're in that passenger seat!!!

Drove a lambo lp570 ferarri 458 and jag xkr in the las vegas canyons when I was in the U.S was sick as :D best thing is you do it solo so much fun. Ferarri was the best car, lambo was like a full on track car brakes you had to smash, steering and gearbox was like bashing you against the hard seats lol

drove the first 3:

Ok. I can check em out if you want to remove them. Or just grab some 1000's, retune and enjoy e85.

What else are you going to spend all that FIFO cash on...

The effort of removing manifold to get to injectors is the same as plonking in 1000's haha

Re fifo cash; lots of jetski's

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
