rofl the brakes russ!

adam yeah I guess so in this case coz he wasnt so close. when you are right on their bumper, you just aim straight for them and they either flick out of the way (most of the time), or you absolutely nail them (unlucky). Have a look at the vid, first flick was almost in the length of the car, then it slowly moved off the the right sliding all the way. If you go right like franks did (looked like the right place at first) you can very quickl y run out of luck.

check out the end of this vid for what can happen when you try and miss them, if I had aimed for him at the start of the spin I would have missed him by a mile

I don't understand what you're saying Duncan.

I remember seeing that video ages ago.  It made me decide that unless someone is right up my arse, if someone spins in front of me I hit the brakes hard.  Cars spinning out of control don't generally turn around and slide back the way they just came.

:werd:

Two cars lost it in front of me yesterday at EC, one was on the brakes and didnt roll back, the other must have still been on the loud pedal as the car lurched forwards when he was a good 60deg sideways, theres no prediciting what they are doing so i just jump on the anchors as best i can, shame i cant miss walls liek i miss spinning cars:(

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
