well he drives like a grandpa :) i assumed it was an NA because even by normal standards ............ he was REALLY crawling! All iwanted was a bit of a drag ...... just a little one :)

So whats the deal with the engine of yours Cam?

Niz - stupid speeds starting with the number 2... something goes astray and i suffer major power loss...

i drive for another 100km or so and then pull out the plugs.. and nearly break down in tears... something has gone bang inside big time..

it's idling funny and doesn't have as much power.. i'm thinkin i've hurt a valve and that the injectors need checking to find out why it all went bang...

going to get it pressure tested to find out if damage has been done on monday hopefully..

tried to drag that Morley Car Audio or whatever its called Supra last night ...... must be an N/A ..... and whoever was driving it was driving like a total grandpa ..... must be totally weighed down with all those subs probably *shrugs* ....... i thought i was going to have some fun but nope ..... maybe he didnt want to suffer the humilation of a Skyline chopping :)

no Niz your right ive raced him at the plex he drives like a grandad lol nice guy but

well i expected something - i was prepared to lose but it wouldve been nice to have a little bit of fun ....... u think someone that has invested that amount of money for speed would drive more like a Supra and a little less like a barina ....... spose not my place to criticise someones driving ..... just disappointed :)

:grouphug: Cam ...... I had a bit of same deal with ZX .... not so much bang but i put my foot down really hard and it surged power and started coughing ...... had so many bloomin fuel and injector probs after that. Hope its nothing to serious ....... it can take the beating - its a Skyline :)

    • I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol
    • My purchase experience was no where near as glorious as yours but still a significant moment in my life! Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma as to whether you bring it back or not!  Obviously a massive waste of time and effort to bring it back if you're only going to move there anyway!
    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
