every time i fix something, something else breaks. every time i take it to the mechanic they find another 50 problems. however i havent really gotten my way with the car yet.

Haha maybe your car and mine were friends back in J land, sounds like the way mine was...... BUT its more because i modified the kent outta mine and kept breaking stock bits lol

yep...you made it sooooooGATTTTTEEEEEooooooo much better....but ruined it at the same time :-)

Had a go at formula fords today.

Think im going to get into karts, going to try organise a try day at cameron park, let me know if anyone would be interested in coming along

Interested...

150 for 3x10 lap sesions, last one is timed and ranked.

Need 10ppl and is through the week...

Not a bad deal.... I'll be stuck at work for the next couple of months tho... So not likely to be able too :/

would like to try formula Ford's.

How much for those?

and I doubt I'd fit in the cockpit.

its through those 'adrenalin' deals online. $350 gets you 10 laps around a small section of eastern creek (takes ~ less then 1min to complete a lap). because someone cancelled in our group we got 15 laps each, i would reccomend 20laps, as you do that in two parts.

its not the best thing ever, but is alot of fun. they are proper formula fords, but they put used wet tyres on?... and they may be detuned slightly?... but still went pretty hard and cornered well.

i think you would be fine fitting in. they have limits of like 120kg and 200cm or something like that.

sounds like a good day ant!

Paul has a go kart he takes to Cameron park.

looks alright but wakie is cheaper all day in something much faster ;)

really, i might need to hit him up... im heaps keen to give them a go.

i wouldnt say wakie is cheaper?... (i dont know the full costs of go karts yet though) but wear and tear on cars, even setting them up for track is very expensive. and karting you can actually enter races and be competitive as far as i understand, instead of just beating your own times etc..

not to say if i do get into karting i will never take the gtr on the track, there just two different things..

im guessing you could race all year in a go kart for maybe 5k or under including buying a kart?..

Alex races a kart too. loves it! He has the Evo but is converting that back from Time Attack spec back to a streetable nugget and just using the kart for fun as its so cheap!

Wakie isnt cheaper when you factor fuel, accomodation and track time, last time i went there it cost me $6500 :P lolz

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
