Fatz, Fatz, Fatz, you always covert what you internally yearn for.

In words that you will understand “Your hot for some man sausage you front bum!”

Ok now thats over, lets talk about the "Corsair Challange"

I think the sedan dropping its load all over the track ruiened what was going to be a level playing field.

Phil did a 1.46.14 to start off,

Steve did a 1.42.XX

Adam did a 1.40.1X

Oil spil

Paul did a 1.46.46

John did a 1.40.08

Phil did a 1.42.xx

Paul did a 1.39.87

John has the exact times.

The car survived and showed no signes of not being able to play again. With the entry money, john will be able to replace the clutch and get some mods ready ready for next round.

Well done everyone, and lets get ready to play next time!

I had the best fun in this Corsair. Almost as much fun as passing GTR's at the track. Waiting.........

Such a contrast for everyone and nice to know even if blows up or something disasterous goes wrong it does not cost anything, even for me as I have written it off and virtually owes me nothing accept fuel and maintenance, unless it gets major then off to the wreckers for scrap.

Official times from first in the car.

Phil 146.14

Steve 142.77

Adam 140.70 with an extra cheat lap after missing a gear and grabbing first was it over the bridge and nearly left gear box behind and as expected though a good drive.

Then a big oil down around most of th track from a sports sedan

Paul 146.90

John straight after 140.61

Later Phill improved to a 1 43 something and Paul after oil cleared a lot on track 139.87 yet to be confirmed by clerk of the coarse and out of the event. Then ran out of day and no one else had a chance for improvement of their time.

Rematch apples for apples next track day should be hilarious action again. I almost dragged the door handles on some corners and top fun.

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
