Well neither of you look that old, but you sure are sounding like old, bitter and twisted men :P

My lsd is shagged so car would be usless around Winton and just fry the tyres:( And have to find where the oily smell is coming from my car, either power steering or clutch slave cylinder perhaps???

Smoking tyres ay troy. That would be awesome for DECA around the skid pan!

For the oil leak have you checked where a set of wires go into the gear box for the reverse lights, i know i've got a bit of a leak there, but with a bit of silicone its all good.

I must say it was a lot of fun sitting on turn one, you could hear everyone screaming down the stright then jump on the breaks. The forester that was running around looked like it was going to go head over heals every time he slowed down! If my car isnt up for a track day at any stage i will be lending a hand again, espically when they give you free beer at the end of it all!

If it wasnt for the flaggies and 2-way radios i was so going to blast past him on the cool down lap :evil:

It would of had to been a sneak attack as a twist of an ankle would have put me back in my place :chairshot

Does anyone know who to speak to with regards to getting the gallery updated for 2005 events, it seems we all have pics from this day, it would be good if there were all in a central location?!?!?!

PS...i thought about it, but figured no one would have been impressed. Stupid, impulsive actions like that usually end up in tears, lol, especially when my first impression is its a good idea:(

Drew (jorg) - really nice to meet you as well. And a huge Kudos to your Mrs for giving it a go as well.

Can you tell us about your car? Pretty stock still?

Nice to meet you to Andrew. It was the first time I had got the car out on a track after putting it together, it has been a bit of a mission.

It is an R32 GTR I imported last year, I plan on doing tarmac rally stuff and a few track days, so it has been tuned conservatively to keep it all together. Apart from a decent cage and seats, it runs 6 pot AP's on the front and RE55's.

I am off to the Maserati day at Winton this weekend get some more time behind the wheel on the track.

Georgie (my wife) got in a few laps, I need to be careful though because we used to run a WRX and she got too close for comfort to my times........not sure how I would handle her going faster than me!

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
