Well its obviously you two don't drive skylines - so you must drive like crash bandicoots and don't want to draw attention to yourselves.

Where as us skyline drives appreciate that crazy driving is saved for the track - but there are also some roads which are enjoyable and challenging to drive within the limit of the law.

If you aren't stuck behind traffic - the GOR is such an awesome drive. And at the old speed limit of 100km/hr you were really driving to get anywhere near close to it. The Great Alpine Road, Reefton Spur and the road between Flinders and Cape Schank are also some great roads in Vic.

Some other enjoyable roads I have been on include the drive over the Great Dividing Range leaving the Gold Coast to get onto the Newell Hwy and the Road from Smithfield to Karanda in Cairns is another ripper.

But the best road in terms of enjoyment, quality of surface, and limit pushing is without doubt Phillip Island Race Track.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
