If you can afford it, yeh go drift, i'm sure it would be a hell of a lot of fun... I'd love to race cars, or drift in events but cant afford it.

When im earning better wages in a few years i might be able to... I am only a P plater, & an exceptional one at that! hahah.

how about doing all that and actually making it handle.. driving like a machine on the track instead :wave:

Drift is overrated..

p.s. there are stack of HR31 that drif.. go to any drift day and you'll see a few out there.

im confused. let me get this straight, you just purchased a nice ride. now you are thinking of respraying it and also turn it into a drift mobile. I think someone saw the jap spec orange r31 that was on one of the car magazines and wants to imitate. Although, if you have that kind of money to spend, by all means go for it.

The car they're talking about is the R31 House HR31 that came over from Japan for the drift nats.

Last year BOWZER participated in the drift nats, as well as a few other 31's.

Pics from last years drift nats

now everyone is building a "drift" car, full respray, vetrex body kit, deep dish wheel.

But how many people really able to afford drift a car like that?

a small error will cost u the bodykit or a wheel. U can see MANY example that people give up drifting their car after build up, then what's the reason of building one?

:werd:

As the title says, im wondering about what to do with the HR31. My first point is that there aren't that many HR31 GTS's on the road, my counter to that is that there aren't too many GTS's drifting,

Please guys tell mw what you think I should do

Your input would be helpful

Ok let me get this straight...From the couple of topics you've put up here, your 13 and its your dad's car yeah?? So why are you asking us what YOU should do with your dad's car?!?!?!?!?!? Im sorry but doesn't make sense to me hey

As for what i rekon your DAD should do with it, he should just leave it as it is, maybe oriantate it slightly towards track work but i wouldn't be touching it....

I read somewhere that drift is becoming the new "rice"...Im agreeing more and more every day

Right Boof, firstly my dad doesn't have time to go on the internet, so I do it for him, if you want to right stupid comments to a 13 year old, by all means go ahead, im just hear for POSITIVE comments, and constructive critism, and since when has drifting become the new rice, about 3 months ago it was huge, to my belief

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
