400R

i'm in too, and for the shirt

i just got my major service at ultra-tune, taringa, and when i picked it up they openly admitted that they knew very little about the rb25 engine. I then hopped into to the car and started it and it was idleing at 500rpm then 100rpm and then 500rpm and so on. I then took the car for a drive and boost was maxing at around 1psi and under full throttle the car would splutter and i would lose all power. i took it back to them and they were clueless. they tried to tell me that it was because the ecu had reset itself when the battery was disconnected and the probelm would sort itself out in a couple of days. i called up 4doorz and we looked at the engine and the d**kheads haden't hooked up the lines to the carbon canister. we put them back on and the car is now running sweet. I would recommend that people take their skylines to places that genuinely know skylines and have the proper knowledge. I will definately be taking my car to Gavin Wood from know on as he seems to know his stuff, unlike other places around Brisbane that "reckon" they can do it.

steve, those tyres were "bottom of the line" nankang 205/55/16's and they had been sitting in my garage for closer to two years. I couldn't believe how hard they had actually got, cause you did 3 pretty long burnouts and they didn't wear that much, although your last burnout went for ages. i've got the footage of all your runs so drop round a video later in the week so i can make you a copy.

I just recently installed a heavy duty ceramic clutch along with a new flywheel and pressure plate, and was wondering how exactly are you meant to get a good launch with a clutch like this. I took it to the drags last night and all i could manage from my car was a 14.6 at 96.9mph while when the car was stock i got a 14.4 at 97.11mph. i was launching the car at 3 grand and it just sat there spinning the tyres. Any ideas?????

congratulations to Steve for kicking my ass twice in a row, next time i'm bringing the old man's M3 out to teach you a lesson.

I managed to get a best of 14.627 at 96.69mph for the night, although when my car was stock i ran a personal best of 14.483 at 97.11mph. The funny thing was that for my best run last night i turned the boost down to 5 psi from 10 psi and ran 0.2 of a second faster. My new clutch seems to be the main problem (single plate ceramic with new flywheel and pressure plate). It was the first time i had raced with it and even when i dropped the clutch at 3 grand my car just sat at the line spinning the tyres. I've tried slipping it off the line but that doesn't work either. Oh well, looks like i'll be needing to invest in some slicks.

[TI-3VOM] backwards it spells "MOVE IT", would scare cars looking at you in there rear-vision mirror

i was there with a beanbag in the back of a forester gt turbo. Great drifting MR>E u were making more smoke than alot of the cars out there. got lots of good footage but unfortunately can't upload them to computer.

i'll definetly be there and will bring my video camera

here's a good pic of MR>E

i don't think a genuine gtr spoiler will fit a gts-t so better to go for a copy

coming down tambourine mt with my windscreen totally fogged up was pretty bloody scary, cause i kept misjudging those hairpins corners, but it was good to get my car out there and really test it's handling limits

was a good night overall. on the way back to the city from mudgerabah was an experience, with hundreds of cars racing on the M1 and every second one coming alongside me and trying to race. sorry to the r31 and the r32 gtr that ended up following me the wrong way twice, next time i'd better read the directions

i'm still keen, last cruise i went on only had about 6 cars but was still fun

the cosworth in getaway in stockholm 2 kills the supra, and watching it do the 4-wheel burnouts in the credits gets me all excited

sounds good

i'll be able to make it if we meet at like 8:00pm or later as i finish work at 7:30pm.

my mate used to be a complier (until a couple of weeks ago) and says the cars he gets through have genuine odometer readings but he'll see the same car a couple of weeks later with a ridicoulus odometer reading. b.t.w a 32 gts-t rarely has less than 100,000 km on the clock according to him but i've seen plenty at car yards with less kilometres than that, i think the car dealers are at fault

broadwater carpark only had about 20 cars in it around 11:30, i was amazed. ausgtr's skyline rocks, was great seeing it take off down the M1, now if only i could afford one owned a cute blonde in an integra on the way home, but i swear she kept getting up beside me and winking, must be my sexy car. i only 5 skylines were at office works, but still was an enjoyable night, especially when a drunk ONE-ARMED man came up and threatened to kick all our asses because one of us apparently tried to run him over, got the cops over and he escaped up the road only to threaten a council worker. The cops laughed their asses off

bigfella - is that through the department of transport?

i might just try that if my other plan falls through

chaos - couldn't agree with you more

i'm lucky i own a skyline otherwise i wouldn't of been able to outrun them, and they probably would of ran my car off the road
