Yeah pauly, seriously, just go down, have some fun mate. Go there with an open mind, relax, try different things, and above all, have fun. No one expects you to be a pro on your first run... The whole point is going there to learn how to do it in a safe, controlled environment. I'm thinking of heading down this wednesday too. I'd be happy to run against you, considering I'm new to it too...

Really man, you got nothing to worry about. Don't listen to that Rousey/383chevy dude. The skyline/holden/ford ratio is pretty much 50/50. You'll see a LOT of Iron Masks down there...

And one blue focus. :(

Holden Engineering design team

"We're getting creams by these ***in jap cars! they're better engineered, better build, cheaper and an assload faster!. Soon we might even lose the taxi/company car market!"

"What do you propose we do? we must improve our package"

Many weeks pass as the development team put their heads together and try to come up with a plan.........

"By joe i've got it. All we have to do it make the engines even BIGGER!. Everybody loves big engines"

keep it on topic or put it in whore town :warning:

hell man do the run youll love it i swear im the slowest turbo out there and i still have a ball

iff a few guys are gunna head down i mite just be forced to give it another go too

sooooooooo whos up for this wendsdy (2nd march)?????????

i have been there only once and there was about 3 of you pissant skyliners. we just took the shit out of yas all night with your shit jap crap cars it was good fun!

Thats pretty normal. Plenty of the Trevs are always on hand to dish out the crap, in the propper bogan way.

It just wouldn't be australia without them. It's all good.

btw you have a 383 stoker commo?

what times have you run in it mate?

erm

383chevvy is just goulash. remember goulash? well he's back... in pog form

So pauly, are you going down there this wednesday?

I'll definitely be there, if the prelude chops you, then you can race me and chop my car to make yourself feel better. It's only a stocker, so I don't mind losing to anyone... I need a baseline figure to work off before I start "da mods".

what i dont know my car is a 1.3liter

I wen't down there a few weeks ago, my first time. I was the only skyline there. I only got 3 runs, against two wrx's one was an sti and some gemini. I beat all of them.

Some tool forgot to brake at the end of the strip and went into the sand pit.

Ne way I was running high 13s with a stock r33 with exhaust and 10 psi, I was hoping for better. To much wheel spin and reaction time could have been better.

Dan the man.. Whos this 383Chevvy guy? Have you guys looked at all the posts he has made.. I dont think people like this should be posting on these forums at all.

Back onto the topic, is anyone going down to whoop arse wednesday tonight?

-

I went down. Got 4 runs in before a rider fell off his motorbike. He hurt himself, but walked away. They took AGES cleaning the track, so I left before I did a 5th. I'll scan and post the timeslip later. 16.1sec, bog stock. First time ever. I met a SAU guy... DeviousDan or something. If you're reading this dude, sorry I didn't remember your name.

Im heading down the plex probably on the 23rd March. My cars in the panel beaters as of next wednesday for nearly 2 weeks apparently. I just got a new s/s exhaust and high flow cat.. Nows a good a time as any to see what it can do i guess

didnt get to go down last nite :) apparently my mate didnt have enuff money ;) which means i think hes running scared. Ive convinced him to pencil wednesday comin up into the diary so i'll definatly be headin down this wednesday even without him. Anybody else have a good run?

    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
    • To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
