Took the shit box out with other shit boxes. Smashed the limiter again in 2nd a few times, I still haz PS belt.

Great success.

No need for an M3 anymore then... Did you chop the Evo?

Evo chopped itself, exhaust manifold cracked.

NA 4G63T lol..

Nah, would still take a F80 LCI M3 if someone is retarded enough to swap.

At the moment I still don’t have a running car and it’s like 14 weeks away 

You're nearly done, what are you on about?

 

Made a temporary, maybe temporary permanent heatshield for the ABS pump, loom wiring.

Should stop things melting on the circuit after a few laps. 

It's a bit ugly, but better than a pile of molten wiring at the track.

If money permits, might use those Real Thermal guys and wrap the gate, housing and dump.

I'm surprised you think it looks ugly, I think it looks great. 

I'm not sure if this would effect how well it works, but painting it black might help it blend in with the background if that's what you'd prefer. 

Thanks mate, I might try hitting it with engine enamel black.

Might make blend in a bit more.

Test and Learn tonight, pray to all the 33 gods out there, and the Skyline gods nothing breaks or fails.

It's alright, good to use the car instead of looking at it.

Will upload my PB lap soon, just trying to see why I can't get any of the telemetry from the VIRB. Probs dropped it a few too many times lol.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
