i love the people that go on about Reps being deadly...

If half the national comp level drifters can use them and hit ripple strips sideways at 200kph without issues, somehow I doubt some phaggot in a VW doing 3kph to get up a wooden plank into shallow driveway to go to a circlejerk hardpark meet has anything to worry about

I dunno, examples of drift cars with limited use with shock loading can't really be compared against long term use with multiple heat cycles.

Cheaper wheels & metals would fail due to heat cycling & cracks propagating.

Drifters would probably use multiple sets per season & wouldn't clock up near the amount of km's a daily drive would do...

My drifteks have had a very hard life so far, road and track. No issues as yet...

The missus Audi rims are shite though, leaking from the factory and cracking badly through the lip from careful road driving. I have also cracked oem 350z rims, and seen a few others cracked also.

Send someone a vector graphic

"Do you have a better option for the diagram. We are putting it in our flyer and the resolution is quite poor."

Send proof of resolution being adequate by zooming in on the vector and screenshotting it.

"That's much better, I'll use that instead" - referring to using my screenshot jpeg

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
