they appear on day 694 for 10 days

there is 4 I wont say what they are,

2 of them are abit over $1,200,000 EACH and the other 2 are abit over 2,200,000 EACH.

so you will need about 7million to be safe to buy them all. I bought one for 1.2mil

awww....crap, oh well, got the long weekend to get some credits up at least.... now i believe i've got till sunday to fang around a GTR at the ring :rofl:

damn it... best i can muster is 7.56.097

i just cant shave enough off!!

funny thing is the ghost i saved of that time i can get 6 seconds up on in the first half of the track but lose it all over the last half of the track :(

Updated.

Geeze i'm way off the pace. I'm certainly getting more familar with the entire track but I still spend atleast 5 corners off in the grass for a while. I think a clean lap whilst staying entirely on the track could yield me maybe an 8'05 at best.

I just spent the last 3 hours trying to figure out how i stuffed my setup up...

I was doing some runs around Nurburgring in my '02 R34 GTR Skyline M-Spec NUR, finetuning some settings etc..

First Run: 6:48.023

Second Run: 6:45.431

Third Run: 6:42.209

Fourth and every other run after that: Spin out on about 4 corners, totally stuffing up the time, and i can't figure out what i changed to make it so terrible to drive! I've changed everything back to what i thought it was, plus about 50 other combinations, but to no avail :cheers:

Doesn't matter, i just bought myself an '00 R34 GTR Skyline N1, so expect to see some good times coming out of that :D

P.S. My '02 R34 GTR Skyline M-Spec Nur that i ran the 6:42.209 in, is far from stock. It has every mod available done to it, producing 614kw on the 'Valuation' screen in 'Home'. That time was done on Soft racing tyres.

I've put all the mods one can buy. The car is pumping 634 hp. The only things missing are the last two under the lightening section (roll cage and body rigidity)

Car's dropped down to approx 95 mm. Suspension set up is the trick.

Car simply sticks to the ground. By the way this was a clean run...did not lose control at all.

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • 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
