My one and only excusion to the plex resulted in a fully fried ATS twin plate, i'm running the exedy now too.

Was weird driving home after, every time she came on boost in any gear the engine would climb to red line with out the car actually doing anything. Probably lucky to make it back.

Enjoy sunny AFrica = lol. I'd give at least 1 maybe 2 of my balls to be back in Bulgy rolling in the snow with a hottie while drinking TOO much vodka. Ah yeah Bill Reece says to say hi, we get on the piss every night here as well but hey that's mining.

Good luck with the 11's, thats just a fantasy at the moment for me.

Give Reecey a slap or me :)

Was a great day and thoroughly enjoyed it even though I didn't crack a 10 (best was 11.1 with a sh1tty 1.7 60' due to very "average" tyres).

Lessons learnt:

* 2 year old hard and bald street tyres don't help the 60' times any

* Torque split controllers are "good things" :D

* Forgetting to switch back into 4wd for launch is a "bad thing" :)

Gav has black R32 GTR .... was in the finals .... lost to a commodore cos of the "forgetfulness about the torque split" we don't talk anymore .... the shame of losing to a VL is too much to bear *jk*

15.1 was best i could manage in zed .... i started beating myself up about it then i remembered the first time i ran the skyline - i was doing worse times than that .... so it can only get better from here :D

Hey All, was great weather and there were quite a few quick Lines there today. . . think i saw 2 R33 GTST's with RB26's bolted in :D one with a VG30!

Saw Nizmo's Zed. . . practice i say! good start though :)

Not much of a crowd there spectating today though.

Definately enter myself next season, even if only in QS. . .

My wife and I went down today to watch as well. Very nice day out.

Bad luck gav, looked like that was the case from the sideline. Fairly sure it was yours i was watching earlier on in the eastern lane launced with all wheels spinning for the first 30 meters, very cool.

And to everyone else.. well done getting out there and having a go.

James.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
