Went to see these badboys over the weekend just gone and it was well worth the money!

The cars in the flesh are nuts and the sound of the R35 GT cars at full throttle is soooo sex! even tho they use the V8.

The NSX's are another thing all together.....the 3.2L V6 screams like a banshee!!

Cusco WRX and the RE-Amemiya FD also gave the eardrums a good old thrashing.

For those of you use to the V8 supercars here, the GT cars just blew me away!!

As for the circuit, we dont have anything in aus that comes close!

If anyone gets the chance to go to sepang i thoroughly endorse it, the track and facilities are amazing....

anyways heres a few happy snaps to share with you lot......

farkk...those cars a bombed..

how was malaysia?..any good car performance shops or alot jap cars on the streets?

I didnt see many around KL but there were heaps in the carpark at sepang, even a handful of farrari's (custom paint and bling)

they have their own local D1 comp which i didnt know, had full dori spec S15 and hatchi on display (got a few pics)

also had 3 hard tuned R34's on display (one with GT bodykit and full matte black paint) and a couple of R33's...........all GTR's mind you

and a few EVO's, supra's, R32 Golfs and Lotus's all road going but pretty heavily modded, few caged, semi slicks etc.....

could find any tuning shops, but i was mostly in the central KL area..... most car/bike shops are located on the fringes.

with KL, like japan, you gotta go into the county side to find all the tuning shops. Sepang's nuts, and the GT brings out all the Waja warriors on the roads. Mind you there's a healthy sprinkling of ceffies, s13's and toyotas in the mix, not to mention the guys who make the yearly pilgrimage from Singapore (these guys usually bring the expensive cars) and Thailand (the 1JZ crazy country).

haha yer a whole lota waja/wira "evo" lookalikes!

and the hwy's there are also killa...... oh to have had my 32 with me!

will def do it again next year.

well proton was mitsubishi once so they all run mitsubishi gear. Some even have evo transplants in them, so dont be surprised when the take off.....but majority are still shitters!

    • Only reason to keep a MAF on your RB25 is to be able to easily calculate true VE if you know what the factory voltage curve represents in grams per second of flow. Also allows you to do things like pull the original OEM ignition + AFR target tables and use those as a starting point for your base map. Once you're well and truly done tuning though there's no need to retain the MAF.
    • Do you think they'll merge there performance divisions and we'll end up HoMo?
    • Very true, if buying new, I would not get an PP either. Minimum is an Elite 2500, which is also considered outdated. Get something that supports DBW, delete that cable throttle. Best thing I've ever done to the Skyline, next best is refreshing the A/C with a new condenser. It's cold, but not as cold as modern car, but colder than most 90s JDM shit boxes imported into Australia.
    • Haltech have a nice comparison table between the Elite and Nexus models -  https://www.haltech.com/ecu-buyers-guide/ In general, the Nexus is better. Haltech have some nice product videos on their YouTube page, I'd have a look at those and if you're still not confident what way to go, I'd give them a call. They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I'm sure they'll be able to help you out. 
    • Not to mention, that the correct diagnostic approach to "electrical thing does not work" is to start with what I outlined above. You only do swaptronics for things that can't be tested really easily, like ignition coils, AFMs, etc etc. And even then you hold your breath in case the fault that possibly killed the original unit kills the swapped in unit too.
