Seeing as it was such a lovely night last night (cold) i thought i would go and practice some drifting around the factory areas at 3am when there isnt anyone else around.

It lasted one corner :P

Did ok coming into the corner.... coming out of it was a little different.

Was holding it sideways quite well going down the rd after the corner but let off the accelerator (i think this is why it happend) too much and the tyres gripped and threw me the other way more than i was meant to and was about to go head on into the meadian strip so i punched the accelerator all the way to the floor to get the wheels spinning and try and pull out of it and managed to flick it the other way and slow myself down a little more before hitting the concrete/grass sideon with the back wheel.

All i got out of it was a flat tyre (rear tyre sperated a little from the rim) which cost $20 to fix! :D

Think i will just wait until the good doctor shows me properly :)

      Dose's Sometimes DIY and Pay Someone Home & Boat Improvement Thread

      So good putting the valve/flap on the catch can. My clothes don't smell like shit anymore. Tempted to fully seal the catch can for daily use and feed all the crank case fumes back into the intake and expose the vent only when on the race track.  Took my daughter to go visit her grandmother, now she's making spooling noises in the car lolol.

      Stagea Boot lid wiring issue

      By thomasLait · Posted

      Hey everyone I recently have been trying to diagnose my rear glass not opening, I recently discovered that the previous owner/owners messed up the wiring real bad and now when ever my vehicle is unlocked my rear glass opener mechanisms has constant power, so whoever wired it up decided to instead fix it they just would remove the metal rod that allows the window to open, so I put the rod back in and now it's just constant power, does anyone know the wiring diagram for the door locks I've been looking a little bit and they are quite confusing, also here's a video of what I'm talking about, I posted it on YouTube so show.

      Sounds like a good one! Part of me goes "Oof, now we have to get up so early" but then also "This is the best time to drive when there is no traffic!". So, yeah, bought my ticket and am looking forward to it!

      R31 drivers side indicator not working

      By Liam2421 · Posted

      Yes your correct haha I found that the passenger side wire was cut from previous owner when it was stripped for a re spray, I now have all blinkers except for both front bar blinkers, both bulb holders have continuity but don’t illuminate, this is the same when hazards  are on, I assume I may be missing an earth

      Just a budget thing I'm sure. Super tourers didn't make it locally and the drivers in that car were paying for drives; so the business case doesn't stack up unless the base car is cheap
