its a hit and miss really, sometimes cops will be picky and hand out defects, othertimes they wont, alot comes down to how you present the car, if you have stupidly obvious defects, eg, loud as, wheels majorly out of guards etc you are gonna be more likely to be picked on, but if you present yourself in a good manner you are gonna have a better chance of nothing happening to you.

An example was G1 rnd 1, simon drove his 32 home after the event, he had front bar missing and headlight and front 1/4 damage, he got pulled into the driver checking station, cop did their routine stuff and let him on his way, why? i would say because he presents himself well and doesnt give the impression of some street racer.

Thats my rambling done but it gives you a good idea, i have been informed by a extremely reliable source that the events will be cracked down on more with the sport becoming more popular so if you have worries about being defected best thing to do would be grab the parents car or jump in with your mates in the least defectable and hope your all good lol.

Oh, matty, i did pm angry about the group buy but havnt heard anything, so if he lets you know anything please let me know also.

CHeers.

thats wat i thought! dont even wanna risk driving there!!

which sucks coz i know atm my car is stock! but prob still get done for something even thou i passed regency on monday!

and it means that if cops are gonna pick on cars going to a drift comp then y have a comp? coz most to all cars will get done even if there just going to watch a "sport"

kinda sucks!

nah have to disagree, i highly doubt you would get done in your car if its stock, we have taken flicks 32 through there quite a few times and never been done. The cops up there arent as bad as you think. One of the main cops up there is actually on a couple of the forums now too. He is trying to help things with the sport. The cops there are mainly just to detoure people from doing stupid stuff, the odd person might get done but considering how many defectable cars roll through there, its a very small percentage. Im sure simon will agree too when he reads this.

I think nisskid may have been one of the unlucky ones to cop a defect but i believe all he got done for was a cracked indicator and it coulda been much worse. So they arent up there to just try and screw us over.

which means a million piece of shit ke70s with homemade guards, mismatched wheels, rust, p plates and a douche behind the wheel that cant drive to save himself.

i say bring on the defects if its getting wankers like that off the road.

im sure if your car was presentable, not bald tyres, not mismatched rims etc, like said above, then im sure you wouldnt have a problem, and the police would more then likely know your just going for a drive and to watch the drifts.

I would hazard a guess at saying it looks like full boost of 19psi by about 3500 to 4000 rpm.

Trailing of to 18 psi at the end of the dyno. :thumbsup:

Need more info on mods etc......assuming normal fuel, how much timing, what are the AFR's, etc?

If its a GTR with PFC & Exh, then its excellent power....if its a GTR with 10g spent under the bonnet, then its very average.

Ramp speed at 150 is a good start (more realistic & comparable to real life on the bitumen).

On the other hand, too many tunes are done at 200 just to impress the customer with numbers and are generally fine on the dyno but pingers on the bitumen going up hill.

PEOPLE & THEIR DRINKS

A recent magazine survey, interviewed fifty bartenders and they were asked if they could identify a customer’s personality on what drinks they ordered?

Although interviewed separately, they concurred on almost all counts.

The results:

If Women Drink ...

Beer

Personality: Casual, low maintenance; down to earth.

Approach: Challenge her to a game of pool.

Cocktails or Blender drinks with umbrella

Personality: Flaky, annoying, dizzy, and a pain in the ass.

Approach: Avoid her, unless you want to be her cabin boy.

Mixed drinks - no umbrellas e.g.; Gin and tonic / Scotch and soda

Personality: Mature, has picky taste; knows what she wants

Approach: If she wants you, she’ll send YOU a drink.

Water

Personality: Pretentious and is looking for a serious relationship.

Approach: Don’t.

Wine - (bottled, not 4 litre cask)

Personality: Conservative and classy, sophisticated.

Approach: Try and weave Paris and clothing into the conversation.

Bacardi Breezer, Red Square, Archers Cooler, Smirnoff Ice, Mudshake etc.

Personality: Easy; thinks she is trendy and sophisticated actually has no clue.

Approach: Make her feel smarter than she is... and you’re in.

Cape Velvet

Personality: Annoying voice, bit of a tart.

Approach: Stand close and mention the alley next to the pub.

Shots and Slammers (Tequila, Vodka, Aftershock etc.)

Personality: Hangs around with male work pals or looking to get drunk...and naked.

Approach: Easiest hit in the pub, Nothing to do but wait.......

IF MEN DRINK... (As always, very simple and clear cut.)

Cider

He’s probably under-aged and wants to get laid.

Cheap Domestic Beer

He’s poor / student and wants to get laid.

Castle Lager Beer

He likes good beer and wants to get laid.

Imported Beer

He’s old; he likes good beer and wants to get laid.

Guinness

The man is a rapist and will get laid one way or another.

Water

He just threw up and is trying to wash the taste out of his mouth so that he can still get laid

Wine

He’s hoping that the wine thing will give him a sophisticated image and help him get laid.

Vodka or Brandy

Extremely horny hound, would shag a warm scarf. Desperate to get laid.

Port

Thinks he’s sophisticated, secretly likes men and wants to get laid.

Whisky

He doesn’t give two shits about anything and will hit anyone who will get in his way of getting laid.

Jack Daniels

Not as masculine as the whisky drinker, knows all about feminine activities (knitting, crochet etc.) to weasel himself into getting laid.

Rum or Tequila

Likes fighting almost as much as getting laid.

Bacardi Breezer, Red Square, Archers Cooler, Smirnoff Ice, etc

He’s gay (blatantly) - don’t turn your back or pick up any dropped change.

    • ..m'kay.... I see on my phone you're having difficulties interpreting the artfully hand drawn R31 wiring diagrams... you wouldn't credit it, but they're actually more accurate than those colour diagrams in gregory's and the like... ...for your purposes though, the wiring colour legend is on sheet 1.... ....the fuel pump connector is top right on sheet 2.... ...pin1 (black) goes to chassis ground -- pin5 (light green/red trace)... The best way to navigate those drawings, is to open them up in whatever image manipulation/paint program you like, and use the straight line/ruler  tool (with a highlight colour) to trace along the wire lines...not hard, no rocket science involved... Fun facts: The OEM diagrams are drawn to top trim level spec ~ so for example, you're looking at Silo spec wiring, but the base S3 Executive trim is also covered by the same drawing (base models just don't have all the add-on luxury bits) One of the more sublime bits of errata, is this bit... The wire splice between pins7,14 doesn't exist (red) -- the bridge on the cluster PCB between the same pins (green) does exist...but it's not 'there' physically...it's actually more towards the center of the PCB, exactly at the spot where they tend to crack...and if it does, only half the dash lights work... can drive you nuts chasing it ; don't ; just solder in the missing splice... These are 'intentional' soldered and taped splices inside the loom(s) ~ there's also unintentional splices like this, due to manufacturing process when a spool of one particular coloured wire runs out, and they splice in/on a new spool. Those splices above are in the loom, LHS, underneath the front guard panel (remove to get at loom)... if water's gotten into the looms, you can expect corrosion at these splices ... keep this stuff in mind, if in the future you get any weird electrical faults... 👍  
    • that looks identical to the WGNC34 Stagea one I was poking around the other day. Is the other end of that not the ECU plug? If so checking continuity at both ends will tell you which ECU wire it is.  I can start by telling you ECU pin 31 is the top of the large pins on the right in your second pic
    • Bit late....but the one on my stagea has additional holes too, it is for clearance of the bolt heads which hold the radiator latch upright to the radiator support (ie, they are not to locate the panel)
    • My gut feeling was also blowby, it is absolutely crazy when you see how much engines actually breathe when they run a lot of boost or are heavily modified. If you can ever see a motor on a dyno it's pretty crazy, full on steam train action. I thought I was going crazy when filling a 500ml catch can in one 20 minute track session, or maybe two. It's been awhile. But then I saw how much _worse_ it is with harder running engines and I was pretty shocked. In any case I would definitely use more than 1L in 1000miles with that kind of load going through it :p It going nowhere.... is... unusual
