Ugh what a shocking night :( :(

* Bad gear selection problems on all 5 runs

* Ben can't drive

* New rear muffler is super restrictive so I had no top end and low boost

* Ben can't drive

* Paul decides their aren't enough clouds in the sky so makes his own

* Ben can't drive

* Mark has a damaged gearbox

Ah well I still did a new PB's for everything (R/time, 60ft, TS, ET) so I guess I got what I set out to do. I'll be out there again sometime over the next month hoping for a massive improvement.

f**king worst experience of motoring i have ever done

shithouse f**king gearbox. did not wanna break it (so i would be around long enough for the burnout comp!!) so launched off slicks with low revs - bog down and get shithouse times

whack some streeties on. cant get into 2nd gear on the drag.

then burnout comp. car works for 30 seconds. then lose all power

f**k cars

wish i had a 6 pack in the fridge right now

Nick you bastard you didnt even say hi !!! :blink:

First time ever out on the drag strip.....so yeah not too pissed off but not too happy either about the 13.9.

What did piss me off was the fact that I only got 3 runs in the space of 3 hours......

Mark once again thanks for lending me the helmet......and I hope ya can get ya car up and running again..

Paul and Stace it was nice to finally meet yall :D

Lets hope it IS an oil seal and nothing major........

Did someone say twin HKS 3037s ???? :D

Ruk thanks for the ciggies between the runs........helped calm the nerves :D hehehehe....

Mona you suck at being pit crew......haha only kidding....thanks for coming out :)

Ok now that all the thankyous etc are out of the way.....I have to say that I now have a lot more "respek" for this drag racing thing....its not as easy as I thought.....and wsid only being 10min from my house...I think I could get addicted :D

but nah....have to stay true to circuit racing...

Oh and Pete...ie fatz....I cant beleive you carry an esky with you everywhere you go !!!!! oh and when can I get one of them clutchfcuker shirts ?? :D

hahahaha....

Edited by shonen

sounds like a busy night. did you run nick?

What kind of time did paul run before the failure?

and ben, must be good to be out in the GTR mate. i think we need to work on those short times though :P with the 104mph you should be able to drop down that time a bit without needing any more power. congrats though on breaking into the 13 sec zone :O:) :)

yeah pete is great eye candy to have around too. only problem is i can never score when he's near by as all the chicks are fighting each other to get into his pants.

lol i go once a year

and every time i go i say man that was boring as shit... what a waste of time... and once again i left with the same feeling

mind you he two scouters running a 29's each was a highlight

the gtr that blew the turbo seal man you should have heard it at half track lol id say 10-20 seconds away from a massive engine blow up go the 5 cylinder gtr

marks car is dead and might have ripped its last burnout for a while

best part was the burnout truck ... yea baby

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
