You should definitely do DECA Greg. The 2.5 hour drive up there and back combined with a full day of high revving action is sure to end well

believe it or not, I actually made it there and back and did a beginner drift day complete with absolute rev smashing and didn't wreck the car until a week after!

Maybe you need to show your car hard love to get it liking you

I always found Skylines drove much better when you thrashed them rather than babied

They feel smoother and more licence losing

Trying to strike that balance between running down a fuel tank quickly so I can replace fuel pump and babying the car around so it doesn't kill the fuel pump, is a bitch

man forgive me for being so forward or if I've missed something but why is your car such a heap of shit? And surely it's not your everyday car if it's so unreliable?

i dont get some people (not you, well sort of.) who cant be bothered spending money on a licence.

"durhh i wanna do a deca or haunted hills, maybe do a track day sometime. how much of a cams licence?"

"$110"

"aww shit... gets pricey"

you just spent like a few grand on car bits ffs.

Haha yeah 'cbf' probably wasn't the right word it's more the spending money and renewing for one event, $110, $300 tyres, $120 deca etc etc

I'll have a think about it might come up anyway even if just watching / help time

Go at your own pace, don't worry about any other kunt, don't worry about who's behind you (easier said than done when you're one of the slower people in the group) but also don't be the flog who is painfully slow through the corners on his 1000cc then nails it down the straight and doesn't let you pass, only to hold you up with his unpredictable line into the next corner...

When you heading down?

Good tips! yeah I'll scope out the group think i'd do the slow-med to be safe not the med-fast group.

Heading down in September unsure of date yet (getting a voucher thing)

last time mine died was with a completely full tank.

that was a bitch to replace. previous times you knew it was coming, this one just stopped completely.

oh yeah price defs starts to add up. i see the licence as something you pay every year enabling you to attend an event whenever you can. though i understand people who wouldnt get enough use to justify it

I confess not knowing enough about electrical, but can someone explain to me why a submersible pump with a positive and negative lead running to it is never in danger of shorting or sparking and blowing up the whole car?

Obviously disconnect battery before working on it and turn on car / pump brake to discharge circuitry, but I still had a huge fear of something like that happening when I put this pump in first time around and started the car.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
