Ah, I noticed when I looked into your engine bay in the break, I was like wtf, it's stock & he's caning the shit out of it! Nice strut brace though. :) Were you one of the cars that spun out 3 times in the one corner at the end of the straight??? A grey s13 did it, and there was one more but I can't remember which car it was. The third time was a 360 degree spin over the grass at the esses hahaha

Haha yeah I tried the bling approach without without much success. Just removing the mass rust from the factory brace. I lost it completely once on the first corner during the wet on my first qualifying lap much to the delight of the crowd ( hearing the cheers from them :) ) so I kept on the throttle and kept it sideways out of the grass. My main problem on that corner was that I would come out of the corner and ran out of lock and then dove towards the inside of the corner :( Sat most of the time on the limiter just punishing the tits off of my car but unfortunately my exhaust is so quiet that no one would even know.

Saw steves bumper after one of the qualifying passes ... ouch! (u better be at the next mc round!)

I hope I can get a replacement before the next round, otherwise I cant really drive my car.

I even got pulled over on the way home, fortuneately the cop was ok with it, didnt fine me or sticker the car - he did have a big smile on his face when he saw it though, his comment was 'your obviously not having a great night', he was trying pretty hard not to laugh.

Funny thing is though, probably wont cost me alot more than if the comp was in the dry, last practice I fried $450 worth of tyres :P

haha i had a black silvia get pulled over in front of me on the way home, the cops did a u-turn and chased him

Just a question, Steve when is the next round????? And second, will it be another open comp like this????? Want to get my car out there is all. :D

If you are talking about MC, its on this sunday

If you mean drift, I heard WASCC is planning on doing monthly friday night pratice sessions and was told probably middle of each month - tbc

I was also told they were thinking of doing the next comp during the day on a weekend, probably early next year.

Things are finally looking up for drift in WA, Paul, how come you didnt come and say hello :D you've changed :D

Yes my car was the black/blue 32, but no I don't have a stock zorst... :D:D:( It is just really quiet, 3 inch all the way thru, but it has a big ass muffler on it, which will be going soon (I hope)

Yes I went around a few times... and the dirt... had an absolute f**king ball tho!! :D:)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
