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

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

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
