I've got some sort of Power-Drain going on with the car. 
Left it on charge overnight last night and it didn't move an inch. disconnected the battery and it immediately started to charge.
This isn't going to be fun.


How big/fast is the charger?

I've asked rotos for a new box.

You wouldn't have that rotary shit there, would ya Corey?

I have put the feelers out on Saturday night. A few guys have changed up to sequential's so may have 1 laying around

Im not 100% sure, It has little lights which light up (8 in total and when I tried to start the car it was at 6/8). 


Got a multimeter?

Don’t run a charger on the car if it has no battery. Or the charger will run flat out and the voltage could go high and cook the electronics

That's what I should have done to begin with, hindsight is a beautiful thing though.

I was orginially working towards an event that didn't come to fruition, would have given me longer and more money to build the car initially, but it didn't work out that way.

Also, 1 guy straight away said put a T56 in it and proceeded to show me the bell housing adapter i sent you ? 

If said guy would like to fund my T56 conversion, you can tell him that I'm keen to get it done. However wheels/tyres and a lift on the Humvee is more important than the Cosmo.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
