If you have the room and don't set a deadline, it's a lot less painless.

How did Supra get written off?

It's been four years now... I miss having a running skyline :(

Plus I don't really have the room, and it's a PITA each time I need to move :(

Planning to have the room issue sorted in around 18 - 24 months though, which should be SAWEET!

Supra was written off because I stuffed up taking a corner. Spun it into a cliff. Really bad corner, that really shifts the weight of the car mid corner, and it had moss and water on it too, rear end came around, shifted weight mid corner and back the opposite way.

Drove it out from where I was and back down to an area a towie could get in, and shut it down before it over heated and damaged anything.

Bought it home and wrecked it. Actually made money on it. LOL. But god I miss that car, it was just so... Raw! LOL

Room solves the issues, when you get sick of it cover it up and leave it for a while.

Sounds like that ridiculous corner in the Royal National Park lol. I had a very tense moment on that corner.

I have been thinking about picking up a Supra - the power from standard internals appeals :)

Nah... Much worse corner than in RNP... LOL Goes from a down hill run off camber, to just a bit after the apex it shifts up hill, on camber. Hence, lack of traction incoming, rear end came around, and it massively shifted the weight right as I put some opposite lock on... Lot of oppy lock as huge grip comes back = f**king messy LOL

Until it oil surges... LOL

The supra I had was a 3rd Gen Supra a GA70 specifically, so a 2.0L I6 TT. It was NOT quick, not at all, LOL but I love it, it had character. Disconnect the waste gate vac lines and just let the turbos self regulate at around 25 PSi... Toyota had enough fuel from factory that it wouldn't knock :P

I took a JZA80 out to a motorkhana, exceptionally fun car to drive, but forget about EVER getting traction off the line. They just want to wheel spin. A very nice cruiser, although more something I'd build if I was young and stupid again and wanted a highway runner. This is where even a GTS-t kills a JZA80, ability to grip and go!

It's a left hand turn on a road country road near Wollongong.

Cliff is on opposite side of the road. So I came in, turned left, car stepped the rear end to the outside of thecorner, grabbed a whole heap of grip in the front and flung it back around the opposite way and across the road and into the cliff.

There was a lot of factors involved in why it happened, but the main one, that contributed 99% to it, was the driver farked up.

Surprisingly there is another brand of that stuff that does get sold by the 44gallon drum.

Known in industry as just "Barrier Cream"

The electricians at my old job introduced me to it, I also worked with a bunch of fitters. The fitters called the electricians poofs for using "hand cream"...

Yeah, one of the fitters finally tried it... Now the fitters are also being a bunch of poofs and using hand cream... LOL Stuff is magic for protecting your hands from grease and grime. Should get my step dad to get me some for while I'm working on cars... Although, I've also been abused into wearing gloves so I dont cut myself as much... LOL

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
