Hey guys, put me down for the next one aswell.

Its great not having to put with traffic and finding out what the acr is really capable of. I had no wheel squeel on the corners, but am unsure just how much harder I can push the car. (wasnt prepared to find out with so many big trees and such high speeds)

Is there any thought on a track day to help me (and in all honesty probably most of us) furter hone our skills.

Still practice makes perfect, so Ill be back for more.

PS: my brakes came good after the cruise, I had thought I'd warped the rotors after one fast section. Has anyone ever experienced this and have any ideas on how to stop it happening again. (short of having to fit 16 inch brembco's)

Hey matty, they are the 555ZR(low profile). I have also used some AVS(yokohama) semi slicks. I was getting wheel spin on acceleration in 4th with 275's. The AVS's were like ice skates until getting some heat into them...and I wasn't keen on doing a burnout for every squirt. The nitto's are absolutely awesome dead cold and in the wet. I only get slight wheel spin in first and second now. Words can't describe the difference. They are not suited to the drag strip however.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
