you're not accelerating if the clutch is in

Fair point :) I accelerate/brake simultaneously in other circumstances though.

Especially in an auto lol. My ZX. Accelerator + brake = lots of smoke :cool:

you heel toe an MR2? when? why?

I have to double-clutch to shift from 4th to 3rd because my gearbox is f**ked. Plus I think it's a good exercise anyway because it reduces wear on your syncros.

nor are you accelerating if you are braking :) how can you be going faster and slowing down AT THE SAME TIME?

I think Newton would have something to say about that..

The engine could be accelerating though :cool: Just not the car itself.

but you can accelerate while applying the brakes

lol what idiot told you that? you know that doesn't apply to modern (post 1990's) gearboxes right? they engage syncros as soon as you push the clutch in. I put it to you that you're fucking up your syncro's MORE by jumping on the accelerator like a tard and not matching revs to gears exactly (ie not needing to use syncros) while using your clutch still while you "heel-toe".

Also, syncro gears cost less than drive gears to replace. Unless you're driving an auto, in which case heel toeing is 100% retarded.

Widebody and still got poke. Damn.. Wonder what the specs on those wheels are.

I know exactly what spec they are. They're "omg look at this sweet shit on yahoo auctions, cheap too, I'll buy em and find out if they'll fit later" spec.

actually just looking at that pic, he may be running hard as fuck suspension so his tyres don't scrape and slight poke purposely. points to him if he is.

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
