lol nice! he had a fair crack in that FC though, that thing looked like it had no traction all day haha

I had 4 bad tyres on. Previously ive just swapped off the rears and it worked well. This time i had no front grip and locked up if i thought about breaking. Still had fun doing skids.

Protip: keep reasonable front tyres on when going to texi.

And finally i get footage of my car spitting fire - around 1:03 for those playing at home. Thats made my day Eric :banana:

hhahah thats a good idea

any news on the car?

On my car?

I lost second gear synchro and my catch can filled up and put some oil through to the intake..... But other than that she ran very well, she kept all the cheater cars honest

Whoever owned that WRX, champ of a bloke, and a bloody good driver! In the second video I'm glad you got the launch of thr GTR. That appears like the second time l battle you I think where I didn't botch the launch... Lol

I got the vid of me frying my tyres but its actually quite boring. So unless some people actually want to see it I won't bother uploading it. My Gopro stuffed up too so all my vids have the sound out by like half a second. Really annoying!

Thanks to the organisers. I would've liked to stay around and help clean up but had to take my mate home because he had work that night.

Good fun. But kiddies don't do what i did and keep going after you've shredded your tyres. Doesn't work out too well.

Paint damage to rear quarter panels happened to 2 cars when the tread body tore away from the carcass, little steel wires in the belts do a bit of scratching!

We may look into some sort of plastic adhesive protective wrap to put over rear guards etc for a little coin, if you wish to really punish the tyres on the course....

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
