not a single issue!

til i got home and off the trailer. motor was cold by then and i stalled it and it refused to start... turns out it flooded it and all plugs were dripping with fuel.

might need to touch up the cold start and low temp side of the map a bit.

  • 2 weeks later...

quick little vid of my deliberate 360 on the straight after doing my extreme entry run. hahaha had hell fun and kept it pinned in 3rd and 4th around the whole track

VID

and heres some pics my team mates got for me.

Trip to winton started off like this... X2... blew out the tyre then chucked spare on and that blew out also. limped it 25k's to keith and then managed to buy a second hand tyre the right size and for a decent price too! half hour later and we were moving again.

then we hit the (wet) track... i went pretty hard straight away, as you do, it was when ity got patchy that it f**ked me right up.. that was gay as aids as it was dry on the straight and the first judged corner but mid corner/apex it turned into a mudslick... made it for very eventful final prac session and qualifying laps.

pass rides were fun... my mates loved it. but 40 each was a rip for the limited time they got.

Qualified 5th... got a bye. was loving that but i needed a run on a dry track being an interstater and all..

first battle was with ferds. nailed the first run. he made a mistake which i didnt know about and i made a mistake going too hard on the follow lap. was a re run. then on the lead lap i couldnt downchange from 4th to 3rd as the box wouldnt let at all. tried like 3 times and at that point i was too wide, and went in the mud. knew straight away that i'd lost the whole battle unless ferds stuffed up his lead run. no chance of that but i went hard and stuck as close and possible.. was an awesome run and at a few points it was damn close haha

after the losee i was kinda dejected... but you get that. thats comps for ya. got back into the spirit of things with team drift with robbo and Nathan, and we formulated a plan before hand and it worked out and we nailed two pretty awesome runs... we won the team drift but yeah we shoulda come up with a better name... for the record the name was picked ON the startline about 15 seconds before we left lol.

some other random shots.

you need some sau stickers on your car, would have said hi if i new you were on here, also did that isc car end up giving rides, it was coming on and off the track a fair bit, was going to go for a ride but i left my wallet at home, turned out it was a good thing, would have ended up in the ke70 which was struggling to link corners.

if someone wants to mail me an SAU sticker i'll happily run some. or maybe i should hit HESLO up since im doing his 33 GTR headgasket atm haha.

yeah that red ke was a bit of a suprise for me... i know i woulodnt have paid 40 for a ride.

not sure how the isc guy got into giving rides but i know his car was a bit f**ked after his tie rod snapped and they welded it back together,... wheel alignmentr wouldnt have been the best after that

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
