We are on the final list with both cars - EVO X and R35 GTR, so come up and say 'hi' :)

Saw that. Hope you guys have a ball. I'll try to avoid the combination of whiplash and jizzing my pants as you tear past me :)

Awesome, heard back from ASP today and all details have been confirmed ... I'll be camping there Saturday night also. See you guys there. I'm sure I'll be wearing the standard issue gay orange overalls ... but I'll be sure to keep the SAU-SA cap on. :dry:

so you might be a contender for mt alma especially in a production class against the flat out race cars is another story but your not going there to beat them

True......Third outright - 0.4 seconds off P1 in the GTR, and thats on the factory Dunlop road tyres. A great result

Telling though was that the GTR clocked outright fastest time into the first split all weekend where power really counts in the drag race up the hill :happy:

Our Evo X missed the top 12 shootuout by 0.1 seconds or thereabouts.

A great weekend for the Willall R35 and crew :D

Was awesome to witness the GTR in action. I've got pics and vids to post up after the track day at Mallala today fellas.

Martin, coulda sworn you made the top 12. Bugger! Oh well, next year then? :happy:

Stay tuned. :D

went for a drive up that way yesterday. lots of cool cars out.

unfortunately the combination of wet weather, small child and my poor preperation for the conditions meant that i couldn't stay too long.

did you have a missfire issue at Mallala on the weekend? Even with that, your car is seriously fast!

Yes, very frustrating. :) Tried different leads, coil packs and gapping/cleaning up the plugs in between sessions, but unfortunately didn't have any spare new evo 9 plugs with me to fix the problem. It was painfully breaking down under load, so I was short shifting and throtling at 70% to avoid it on the straights. Despite the misfire it was good to get some track time and use the tyres to keep the lap times somewhat respectable. In the end it was only a demo, but worth all the pain just to drift turn 1! :D

    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
    • Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
    • I installed it all myself,  It was really easy to install.  I got a professional to do the degas/gas.
