Never driven on a track, never driven that track! I'm gunna die :P

Matt, few tips.

- Brake (when you're going in a straight line) just before the corner. This shifts weight to the front end and allows a sharper turn in. Can unsettle the car if you brake while turning.

- When you're going into the corner, look at the apex and look where you want to exit. You ideally want to take the corner in a straight line after you've turned in.

-Don't be afraid of coming out wide on the corner, this can help to minimise tyre squeel and allow you to start accelerating earlier, the secret is to use all the space the track gives you.

- Once you've hit the apex of the corner you can accelerate.

360rwkw in a RWD car will be a handful on the track so just go into it slow until you become comfortable with the track and the lines required.

oh man theres gunna be some hectic cars in there!!! though your a first timer

you drive with people with similar experience not power. youll be in the 1:25 section for the first couple runs, then move up slowly till your in the right place

pretty keen now mannnn

Will be awesome man!! I am getting an SAU NEWCASTLE sticker :P

Lol no idea what trail braking is, but if that means brake before turn-in while car is pointing straight, then yes!.

Your a clown!! Your giving advice and don't understand what it means? Dumb ass :P GTFO

Dude, I actually read what Matt said as Newcastle Skylines sticker as well =S.

Summoning GTR-34A, are you going to the trackday?

Have you got shit in your eye again?

LOL, I'm a lot more confident in my driving ability, than my ability to install a $70 shift knob =D

Got it..... You can't drive and love the knob?

    • Son, in this country, that is a piece of Gyprock. f**king drywall. FFS! I also like the autocorrect of trailer to tablet. I was reading it and thing, "what the hell drugs is he on?" Then the photo made it clear enough.
    • SO whats the deal with this issue? I've read a heap of posts from the infinity owners in the US having full engine swaps done under warranty. Most claims are done on earlier cars than 2019 but I'm sure I've come across claims of 2020 models also having this issue. I like the 400r and Q50Red/S but can't fathom dumping close to 50k on a car with terminal issues!!! 
    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
