well he drives like a grandpa :) i assumed it was an NA because even by normal standards ............ he was REALLY crawling! All iwanted was a bit of a drag ...... just a little one :)

So whats the deal with the engine of yours Cam?

Niz - stupid speeds starting with the number 2... something goes astray and i suffer major power loss...

i drive for another 100km or so and then pull out the plugs.. and nearly break down in tears... something has gone bang inside big time..

it's idling funny and doesn't have as much power.. i'm thinkin i've hurt a valve and that the injectors need checking to find out why it all went bang...

going to get it pressure tested to find out if damage has been done on monday hopefully..

tried to drag that Morley Car Audio or whatever its called Supra last night ...... must be an N/A ..... and whoever was driving it was driving like a total grandpa ..... must be totally weighed down with all those subs probably *shrugs* ....... i thought i was going to have some fun but nope ..... maybe he didnt want to suffer the humilation of a Skyline chopping :)

no Niz your right ive raced him at the plex he drives like a grandad lol nice guy but

well i expected something - i was prepared to lose but it wouldve been nice to have a little bit of fun ....... u think someone that has invested that amount of money for speed would drive more like a Supra and a little less like a barina ....... spose not my place to criticise someones driving ..... just disappointed :)

:grouphug: Cam ...... I had a bit of same deal with ZX .... not so much bang but i put my foot down really hard and it surged power and started coughing ...... had so many bloomin fuel and injector probs after that. Hope its nothing to serious ....... it can take the beating - its a Skyline :)

    • How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.
    • Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?
    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
