If the brakes are fixed mid week on my GTR it's a big possibility. Won't be entering but would appreciate co-pilot for a run or 2.

GTR's booked in on the Monday to get the suspension set-up properly.

Just enter mate, you'll love it! We've had some real shitbomb cars come along with terrible suspension, mismatched tyres, weak as brakes - basically the opposite of your built GTR and those guys have all had a blast!

ok there needs to be a skid challenge now.. someone bring me a set of tyres to destroy as im a poor bastard and dont get paid till 2 days after texi..

Or if you know someone around penrith that will fit tyres for free ive got some lying around

Hey guys long time reader first time poster. I entered a few days to a week ago and paid via transfer, just wanted to confirm you had recieved my fax and transfer.

Name: Jack Drewett

Transfer would have been titled as a variation of my name with TEXI afterward

Looking forward to the day cheers

wet skids = slow skids :closedeyes:

Hopefully not man, got tyres to kill! We should convoy out :)

Edited by best guy

Just have to throw the older rims and tyres on and the car is as ready as she'll ever be. 1500rpm launches, here we come!

And, going back a few pages: Eric - of course I will have you in my car. But it is going to be slower than a 1.3l 3 cylinder Diahatsu Charade! You have been warned!

1500 launch? You mean 7500 right :thumbsup:

When you launch just hold the handbrake and slip the clutch a bit. That pre-loads the drivetrain so you don't jolt it on take off.

You'll be right!

Hey Jack,

I do have your payment but cant seem to find a form in your name.. If possible do you mind resending it?

I have put you down as no 25 on the list so dont worry about missing out.

Also list is now updated with a few more to come

Thanks for that mate, I can fax it again although it might be more reliable if I scan and email it. I saw an email address "[email protected]" listed on the entrance form - would that be OK? If not I can try to fax again.

cheers

dont forget to switch your TCS, ABS off if thats still on option on your cars people.

oh and if anyone still has HICAS get the damn thing locked!

TCS definite buzzkill. ABS doesn't bother me, although it gets terribly confused when I use the handbrake one of these days I'll remember to pull the fuse.

HICAS still operational.. I don't let it cramp my style either :)

hey just wondering if my entry was received my names tyler hartwell

Hey Tyler,

Nothing yet, how long ago did you send it?

if you only faxed it today dont stress as it will probably turn up early tomorrow morning, If you want to though u can email it to '[email protected]' or pm it to me..

I think I'm going to come up for a quick visit. I have family stuff on that day :(

Oh Dave or Steveo.. Whoever is booking these evens why don't you pick better dates and give me 4 weeks in advance notice!!

I want to get my ute out..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
