Haha don't think so because I got like 3 more runs after that which wouldn't have happened without a water pump

Just glad I got to drive it home

The diff sounds like its taken a beating haha

Missed me :P the only other ACT car to be on the track, whats your excuse :P

Mine was I spent the majority of the time trying to fix my car. Installing new rear brake pads and later a broken water pump, my day was over :(

I have no excuse I honestly didn't even seen another ACT car.

How the hell did I miss you haha

What car was it?! Photos for proof you're not f**king with me

I was told you were in the second set of garages. As Sin stated I was in one of the hundred silver R33 GTR's. Black and white number plates but ACT.

The video I shot was pretty lame this time, no real action, just slowly loosing sight of a blue R35 GTR.

Okay so a huge thank you to ROB! (not a pulsar)

This guy spent 2 hours in the sun chatting and lending tools as we changed my fan belt on the side of the road.

THEN we drove off and left him with a flat battery! and he didnt have my number.

Rob I owe you a few drinks next time we catch up

So farken sorry mate

Yeah, $1500 D2 Racing coilover package for the car of my choice. Looking at their RS range, they're almost all $1450 - $1500. So more or less, I'll grab whichever model someone wants to buy off me lol. $1250 and they're yours.

Kasko, you'll get yours Buddy!!! or perhaps you already did.

Remember when I said "maybe I should turn my Hazards lights on too?"

That's what did it. That and my immobiliser I guess.

NRMA guy said my battery looks quite small for the size of the car. Maybe he's right!!!

Still, It was a great day, so cool to finally get out to one of these events and today was awesome too,

Heaps of pics and vids of the Airport & the same for the SnS today.

Great to meet you Shell & Kasko. Didn't meet Sinista but it'll happen.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
