Sigh. There was nothing wrong with the translation in the way most people would've done it. When they were talking about boring it out from 1.6 to 1.8, that was correct. The problem was when he said "V6", the translator accidentally took into account that a Japanese person was saying that. What Toru was saying was actually "B6" which is the engine code for the Miata. Unfortunately, because Japos don't say V really well, when they usually try, they end up saying B instead. Probably not paying any attention or knowing what the guy was talking about, the translator mistook that for V6, since that is a fairly common term used when dealing with cars. So it's not really the translator's fault, and this could have only been properly translated by someone that knew the engine code for the Miata. In any case, this is my first post, and I joined the forum to correct this mistake.

Keep watching http://www.ide-fansubs.net, in my opinion they have the best quality of the 4th stage episodes.

I do have a torrent file for episodes 5 and 6 at home, but they arn't in the best of quality and the subbing is way below average. but you can still follow it.

If you want it to I can PM it to you when I get home tonight.

Torrents are the name of files that are used to download files from the Bit Torrent network.

Bit Torrent is a P2P network similar to eDonkey/eMule, Kazza. etc.

Go to http://www.bittorrent.com/ and read the Introduction there for more information on Bit Torrent.

as some of you may know I'm the proud owner of a aussie built AE86. Soon to be gutted n restored (bought original trueno seats for $150 for the pair :wave: and the back seat was $100). Currently trying to source a 4AGZE engine. Next will be modifying the suspension setup, for a bit of amature dori dori... then getting the trueno nose and maybe fibreglass/CF bonnet (failing that straight fibreglass bonnet). Then I'll try to get it to look as close as possible to the AE86 in Initial D :wave: I'll probably sell it as a replica or weekend drifeter.

    • Hi SAU family, having issues with my R34GTT which is slightly modified and tuned to e85. so scenario is, I鈥檓 driving the car to work (30km oneway) and then coming back in the arvo. Car starts and runs fine in the morning and on the way back home (in the arvo). I stop the car when i gets home and after 10-15 mins, it wont start. Battery is fine, fuel pump seems to be working. All i hear is engine clicks but wont start.  Last time, i disconnected the battery terminals and re connected them. Check fuses. Didnt start at that time but started after an hour (so I say when its cool down). Mechanic cant find the issue as its running now and nothing coming up in the diagnose. any advice,opinion or anyone gone through similar issue.   thanks 馃檹馃徎
    • 9" +35 will rub on the suspension. R33 GTR wheels are +30.
    • I know a guy with 18x9 +22 on the front of a 32 gtst, needed quite a lot of guard work, tyre stretch (215) and camber. Not sure what your current set up is, +35 won't be as much, but still a fair bit of guard work and camber.   
    • Well as expected the ECU wasn't getting proper manifold pressure reading.  Once I switched to a 3rd vacuum line directly off the back of the manifold the car runs amazing.  Still slightly lean on full throttle but only like 15 AFR, probably fixable with some tuning.
