  1. umm, how does the time stop?, I got smack in the middle and nothing happens OK, I was parking backwards the first time I could get the first 2 done in 17.9 seconds, the third one was a bit tricky
  2. The first 2 events are posted here, so I guess when theres a 3rd file it will be from last night http://gallery.cybix.com.au/displayimage.php?pos=-1979 EDIT: My bad, this is just Track Day information :
  3. Great event, nice to meet ant and see some Skyline action on the track. There should be a link posted soon for all to see... Too bad about the rain, noone could improve their times. Most fastest laps either 1st, 2nd or 3rd lap out.
  4. thats exactly what I do, you need to set a time and a ghost car to beat
  5. 2.5l, 2.8l, 2,600 litre.....he's messing with my head
  6. Datsun 510? Its only got 2 doors! Please tell me thats gunna be in the film
  7. I walked out to my car today to find that it has a flat tyre, Jai said he'd take a look at the puncture so hopefully I am still in for this event.... What are the bloody chances
  8. Thought you would have heard it though Mirkz, one of the cars did a burnout and the tyres were screaching pretty loud
  9. I'll give that credit as an unmodified car
  10. I saw her take down plates from 2 moving cars, none that were parked.
  11. Thats goot be the best run Ive ever been on between Karragullen and Bedfordale. This is still the best map out of all the clubs cruises I have been on, too bad about the cops at the very start. And some fellas go their licence plates taken down at the Elizabethan pub when that woman was telling everyone to leave, so watch it.....
  12. -=HICAS THREADS=- Some general info first- HICAS is Nissans 4 wheel steer system that alters the angle of the rear wheels by about 1 degree while cornering and when it goes wrong it can leave the driver with an uneasy feeling about the rear of the car. It is advised to either LOCK or completely REMOVE the system. R32 Skylines have hydrolic HICAS whereas R33 and later Skylines have electronic HICAS. Your problems may be easily fixed with checking power steering fluid level. Q. Whats this HICAS light on my dash? A. The answers can be found here, here, here, here, here and here. (just to name a few) Q. Removing HICAS on an R32 A. The answer can be found here (a few good pics on page 4) and here. Q. Removing HICAS on an R33 A. The answer can be found here. (with pics) Q. Locking HICAS with 'TOMEI Lock Kit' A. The answer can be found here.
  13. Noones done this for a while... Jaguar XJR9 Race Car - 5m29.043sec Second fastest time, woohoo!, I don't know how anyone is going to beat that 5.09 from v_twin
  14. It is a manditory occurance for all P platers to crash at least twice . They (P platers) don't know it but its not what you do in the car that makes you a good driver, its knowing what everyone else around is doing or premeditating the actions of everyday driving around you. Curtious and unhesitant is good driving, not doing a burnout and JUST missing that pole because I knew what I was doing sorry, I have to rant sometimes and i get carried away. See y'all tomorrow, yeehar!
  15. same boat **raises hand. Mine has hit a max of 84, but after a bit of driving in low and high revs the knocking is down to lower than ~30. Is this a problem at all?. If I am driving with no hard boosting the knocking is lower than 20.... Also have been told to watch for blowing smoke. White = water Brownish = fuel Black = oil is that right?
  16. The knock level only seems to be that high on startup. I reset it to zero after a few minutes of driving and it stays down in the twenty's then... I just hope nothing goes wrong this Monday night. I do give it a bit of stick every now and then while driving to test the boost and feel for engine skip-beats (possibly timing belt), which I get a few of.
  17. So thats your car is it, nice!, same path of mods I want to carry out with Nismo and Tomei by my side Please don't get a 'Rick James' Veilside kit
  18. So the R32 GTR was called the 2000R Sports Coupe, interesting
  19. I'll be getting this by next year probably, if things go right until then. You'll be lucky to find an Australian dealer with them with a good price.
  20. I thought you were the mascot not a commitee member....
  21. did you see all those small children get sucked in there....
  22. I'm sure if we make it to the same place I'll familiarise and remember the turn The sign was behind a tree for petes sake
  23. bastard , its been like this for a while though You did mention cracked cylinder (and an N1 block??) in that thread though, which sounds engine stoppingly catestrophic really.....
  24. oh....shit....is a compression test worth getting then? My power is all good and the boost pekas and holds quite nicely. What signs are there from in the car that theres something wrong with pressure?
  25. sounds like its quite close to the top of the engine, but I only ever notice it while driving in the morning and haven't had the bonnet open to listen. It quiet when idling though.
