if any of you do get out to the super sprint i will be racing in my GTR. it's gun metal grey. can't miss it, it has Rice Engineering stickers on it, car number 295. Take plenty of pics :) and don't be afraid to come and say hello.

didn't see any of you folk out at EC? don't tell me you got waylaid at the drags!

only dude to show up was my main man Thomas. I hope you got to see the nugget going 'round mate :D

hahaha Richard unfortunetly I didnt get to see the beast run.......I did see an R34 GTR with L plates driven by a teenage chick out on the skid pan !!!

Have to say though....besides the plates the stance of your car looked like it could have been on the cover of a glossy Jap car mag...tough!!!!

How did you go against some of the old school Alphas ?

i WAS there :S

i was in the white R31 :D

im a good boy :P

didn't head out to the creek, went out campbelltown way to see my niece and step brother etc etc

First time i've been there (well, been there before, the lighthouse that is, but i was like 8), so didn't know that we should have been expecting ricers trying to race us all.

Remember, neons.... 50hp each, spinners... 20hp each, clear brake lights... 25hp each, chrome fuel filler thingo... 10hp, gauges that aren't even hooked up... 35hp each.

saw a group of done up cars at wollongong.. including a few imports.. i was in a white 33.. anyone see it??

just after maccas and kfc and that..

we were comin back from gokartin to go eat..

hmm slim tried to ring ya mate, but said, phone turned off..

ahh well..

hope you enjoyed the trip to lighthouse..

yeah, the car went really well. as for how i went against the alfas i'm not really sure as we were in different classes. some of them are definately quciker than me though down in the low 1 minute 50s. I'm glad you came over to say hello anyway mate. :(

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
