has any one got any pics of the pit area of a japanese drift event?? just want to see what kinds of things they do to there cars,and just weird japanese things that we wouldnt see here in oz, cheers

Seriously, the Japanese guys do EXACTLY the same thing in the pits as what they do in AU. Theres not magic or wierd sh!t going on... Having said that, I don't have a drift pic, but I've got a circuit time trial event? Would that suffice?

I call BS.

A mate of a mate of a mate of a cousin said that Mr. Miyagi is often found in the garages of drift events rubbing his hands together and healing cars.

LW.

You will find there a lot more squatting in Japan.

Also I have never played Rock, Paper, Scissors with over 100 people before until in the pits after a drift event about a month ago.

Apart from that it is pretty much all the same. Aussie cars have had SuperRoo stickers and cute little drawings on them since the 60's, team stickers with slogans are around in Australia too...

One thing that you won't see is cars being run through scruitineering again, so functional, but perhaps less than perfect, repairs are done to cars so they can continue. In Australia they would probably be sent home.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
