Hey boys, going to pick up my rims today and placing an order for tyres. Just wondering who you would trust with your rims to get fitted, i'm going for a stretched look on 20's and i really don't feel like picking them up with dents or marks or anything on my brand spankers. Thanks

Pretty tough R32 GTR just came past my work, was sort of a gun metal grey/matte black in colour. Had a GTR front bar and the turbo sounded so good. Heard it take off from up the road and come past, nearly jizzed.

So many tunes to do this week for Matsuri...! Who's going? Should be a good day.

If you aren't aware of the drift track just outside of mackay (About 50 mins away) - http://www.facebook.com/mackaydrift

Huge drift meet This saturday and sunday (22nd and 23rd).

Yeah 8sec pass is in the bag, which is pretty freaking awesome, ran a time of 8.97 @150mph and a 1.35 sec 60ft

. Believe it or not but this puts us 0.02 sec off Theo's world record for fastest H-pattern street tyred GTR, only a bee's dick in it. The car was re-dynoed at Godzilla Motorsport before the Jambo making 900rwhp on 30psi and the gear vs speed was setup so in 4th gear it was running approx 33psi. Had the car weighed as well and came in at 1440kg with half tank of fuel, bit heavy but has all steel panels still.

On the next run the boost was pumped up to approx 35-36psi which was probably close to 1000rwhp and launched the car, it was 3mph up by half track then 3rd gear decided to let go :( $$$$ oh well no world record this year. But hoping to smash it to bits once the gearbox is rebuilt. Can only get faster from now on considering there is approx 100kg + we can loose and it still has more power in the engine. Looking forward to next years Jambo f**k yeah.

f**k yeah

Was it an OS Giken gear set, seem to remember something like that. Where to from there?

Must be slightly disappointing. So close to the record its redicuolous lol. But I guess at that power/speed it doesn't take much.

Nah it was PPG Dogbox strongest box on the market but not Hipo GTR proof, where to from here probably strip the gearbox and see how much damage has been done it will be cheaper to rebuild it rather change setup then have another crack at the record.

That's right. I knew it was one of the top ones (would have to be lol)

Hopefully its not to bad then. Won't be real fun if your rebuilding gearboxes after every few runs

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
