That was a great idea Steve, I'll try to drag don along next time. Had a lot of fun and to finish close to Eric's GTR is a good result for the humble FC. Thanks Eric for the run, and rerun when i changed back to normal wheels. Battling is way better on rubber with tread :teehee:

Yeah Chris, I originally wasn't going to run my car at all. But, the slightest twist of the arm and well GD2ILA was itching to have a small strech of the legs.

Was good fun! I have some video that Matt was kind enough to film too so will put that up soon.

A little more awake now.

Thanks to officials for their time and efforts. Thanks to Reece for jumping in the car to give to me pointers, I may have seemed very confused but your tips through the day made a big difference. Slower is faster but it's hard to resist the temptation to make the tyres scream. cheers.gif

Did anyone get a shots or a video of my Stag going around? Would love to see it doing it's thing, hopeful of the one hand break turn that was right.( out of many attempts ) thanks.gif

For a first timer everybody made me very welcome. Anybody sitting on the sideline worrying about being a novice or breaking your car - don't be, it's all at your own pace. As for breaking your car - refer back to previous comment re slower/faster. thumbsup.gif

I now just need to sort a new clutch before the next one so I can do those 6k launches . nyaanyaa.gif

and yes this thread needs more photos and videos.

You did great! And I think another point to make is that you drove home on the tyres you came with... so anyone thinking it's an expensive day out cos you need 11ty sets of tyres (as previous pictures would have you believe :P ), it doesn't have to be!

    • 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.
