Obviously 32 GTRs and Evo 4s aren't video worthy! :D

I know :) Ive sent the guy a message hoping to hear back to see if he has any extra footage of the GTR...

The Lambo flamage is so cool tho :banana: Jason is a pretty cool guy!

I'm always amused by the old "driver needs nav" thing...... like, what happened to the last poor bastard who sat beside you?

Haha - doesn't say much for me does it. My next rally is likely to be Targa High Country which will be my fouth rally and will most likely be with my fourth different Nav!

But I can see it's going to be harder and harder to find new ones since my old ones all seem to get abducted!

One was abducted by an EMO, one by Indians and the other by Aliens (who removed his manhood)*

*this may not be true but its the only logical answer I can come up with so far.

Before I forget.... came across the best.rallystory.ever. recently...

How A $500 Craigslist Car Beat $400K Rally Racers

Proves there's yet hope for all of us backyard races :(

Trying to choose my favourite quote:

Parked the crapcan with Loeb, Hirvonen, the whole crew. I can only imagine what the other drivers where thinking when they strapped in: "WTF? I wasn't even born when that model came out."

OR...

Got there too late to do reconnaissance and had to mooch stage notes from the Peruvian rally champion. Dude is cool but notes are in Spanish or something. So e's are rights and d's are lefts?

OR

I once asked Bill why he insisted on going through every spectator section crossed up and with the engine banging off the limiter. "Dude," he said, "I don't care if it costs me a couple of tenths. It makes the fans go nuts."

So for those unaware, Lake Mountain saw some interesting times when a high profile Porsche (may have been driven by one K. Weeks) came upon a fellow competitior coming back down the stage on a closed road...Needless to say, Mr Weeks was very animated when he was telling us at the start line on the next stage.

Video evidence has now emerged...

You only need to watch the first minute!

That is well Crazy! I love it!

i was just about to post the same link. what was the go there? Anyone know why it happened, or couldn't the poor emo make it up the hill?

Little Emo spun and decided it would be a great idea to go back down the stage a little to turn around, as where he spun was armco on one side, cliff face on the other...stupid stupid decision.

Worst part is, he'll be at Targa! :(

I saw the marks and wondered if that was the case.

easy, just sandbag the prolouge, then you don't have to worry about any other cars. :(

LOL, last weekend would have taking a lot of string pulling for both of us...but Targa High Country, just look at India as the driving force for me losing my will to live and in part losing my fear of death....plus all those drunk'n tuk-tuk rides means i am far better prepared for sitting in the silly seat :banana:

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
