Yep i aint really that interested in the whole drift thing either.

When i got my new brakes put in at a local shop one of the young guys asked me 'so does this do sick drifts?' i said no i aint a drifter. Then he proceded to show me his drift car, which was a stock shitbox vl with 2 smashed in windows and the panel damage to match, which ofcourse happened when he was trying to so a full sick drift!!!

well i do have an auto, but i'm not rushing out to get a manual conversion just to drift (like everyone keeps telling me! - i suppose that's what made me crack in the first place)

in the spirit of things i'll have to say 'go team wang!'

I have only been in two cars being drifted at Morwell and one felt like an accident in progress, the other I could have slept, he was so smooth.

I sort of agree with you, while im sick of every second person telling me they are "drifters", i do love it when im just sitting at the lights and see a 32 or sumthing come around the corner completely sideways, it brings a smile to my face, but the next time someone says "so are you a good drifter" or "where do you drift" im gonna rip off there leg and beat shit out of them with it, i mean whats the go, i own a r32 so all of a sudden im a d1 spec doriftor?

I dont drift, purely because i cant afford the new tryes/panel damage, and even if i could, i wouldnt consider myself a 'drifter'

That refers to alot of silvia and 180sx owners that think just coz they got those cars they are drift experts.

Well done boys, last few posts are PURE GOLD.

Main reason im going off drift, is that you look at guys doing club/circuit days and spectators etc can view for free. Charging ppl to spectate at Drift days and turning a profit out of it goes against what club level motorsport stands for.

yeah i dont agree with how much they charge... i still think something should be tho seeing as it isnt cheap in australia to hire tracks... but the normal events that arent the nats are free entry for spectators

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
