Take two laps to warm the brakes up ( it's very rear grabby during those two laps)

Then it become epic under brakes

Shows the limitations of the stock master

I have a massive list of things to do as usual

Number one is install the ap twin master balance bar setup I have for it with rear adjuster

It's got 4 degrees up front and 3 at the rear

Tyres seem to like that geometry

IKEA arms makes it easy

Why some much at the rear fatz? Appears to understeer in the correct GTr manner then get snappy when you touch the throttle. Less neg on the rear be a better set up?

yea was just trying a few things the car was previously at 3 front and 1.9 rear

the plan was with a agressive front lsd i wanted abit more snap at the rear at the start of the corner to suit my driving style...the 4wd then kicks in and we get out of the bend hard blazing all 4.

sau day ill dial it back as jenna is driving as she is not a massive fan of a snappy rear end.

however once the 4wd is back and working 100% then ill give it another bash.

4 degrees at the front was getting epic turn in though.

Yeah all the cool kids run four or more degrees at the front. Reckon the Japanese use massive spring rates because they don't run so much neg camber.

Looks funky but then it is next to impossible getting the right offset rims.

Get an Evo, they do that from stock. Properly driven should be faster into/through most corners if lacking some of the straight line snot.

    • My first thought is to use something like this https://www.bunnings.com.au/goof-off-177ml-adhesive-remover_p1580913
    • Here it is nice and clean and for shits n giggles he's the clearly structural piece of trim it was holding down. 😬    
    • A lot of the trim pieces on the E39 are super brittle and just dissolve when you try to get them off. It looks like a previous owner has used what can only be described as an industrial construction foam adhesive to glue down a tiny piece of trim.  Unfortunately this part of the tailgate is starting to rust because of how much shit is in here. This is stopping the water draining and there's a big build-up of dirt that is just staying wet. How can I remove this? Would a flap disc get rid of this?  I think this car spent a lot of time inland. There's so much light coloured, fine dirt and dust everywhere.  Sorry for the pic. I've cleaned this all up now so I'll get another pic of it clean today.
    • Surely, just about any shop that has done a Skyline (or Supra, or RX-7, or EVO, or WRX) will have done E85. But perhaps you need to specify what type of car, what type of engine, what ECU, you propose to be using.
    • Try an oil additive. There's a couple of options for "easier shifting". These are essentially a similar idea to what Redline put into their Shockproof gear oils. I had a 2nd hand R33 (in fact, as of right now, it is still in the car) that simply would not engage any gear with the engine running, with normal gear oil in it. We dropped that and replaced it with Shockproof lightweight, and suddenly the gear lever did what it was supposed to. At a cost, of course, of the then ongoing damage to internals done by running Shockproof. But the synchros were already totally uninterested in life, so there was no loss.
