Thread revival.

After powercruise I had decided to leave the drag radials on, ordering a another pair soon so I can put my 18s back on the rear. Its the only tyre that has decent traction.

Took the car to the drags in June and only managed a feel out run before I destroyed the diff and snapped a half shaft :(

The spline from one of the shafts spun inside the axle gear which pushed it apart, then the other shaft snapped clean. Even though one gear broke I had to order two from Tomei which was a wallet killer! Could have almost bought a new diff.

So I only did a 12.3 at 137mph.

Done a few cruises and all up put about 1500kms on the motor. Took it out last night for a run up the mountains to fill up at the new United in Blaxland that sell E85.

Much better drive for me than going to Rozelle for fuel.

So now Im just doing some little tidy up stuff and would like to get the car resprayed at some stage.

Here are some vids from last night:

Awesome car! I love the first video of you feathering the throttle on flyby, awesome power and sound!

Do you also run on 95ULP at times or just E85 the whole time? Do you need to make any changes to the management system or does it self adjust to accomodate between the different fuels??

I've got a United servo near me that sells E85 (conveniently on the way to Calder Park too) so would love to run the odd tank here and there but not all the time. I've got a Power FC though.

Cheers.

    • I don't really know general street pads too well, but there is no reason you can't get a low dust, long wearing, no squeal pad that works for those calipers at a reasonable price....they would just be a low end to medium price daily style pad.  If new pads don't have much bite or they loose it over time, it is probably just the pad glazing up which you can fix by giving them a good thrashing every now and then (or get the mechanic to deglaze them at next service) Track or semi track pads are where you have to put up with excessive dust (and potentially squealing as a side effect of that) in return for good bite and performance when very hot. Street pads have nothing like that sort of punishment, even long downhills with the brakes on are easier than a track session
    • lol yeah I'll check that, reminds me of the LDV thread!  I don't think that is the problem here, the starter doesn't even solenoid click. I did do a super quick test by removing the starter motor's power cable from the engine bay fuse box and the battery voltage was still 10v, so something super fishy is going on. BTW here is a R33 fuse box table I threw together from a few sources....use at own risk! R33 Fuse Box and Sources.xlsx
    • Johnny's approach, throw all the Nissan electronics into the trash. Best thing I've done to my shit box, go DBW.
    • Sounds like the JAX guys must have installed some really awful pads, are they BenShit/BenDicks pads by any chance?
