** Rounds 4 and 5 Update ** Round 4- Anti clockwise (Saturday) Keith started the day in real wet damp foggy conditions, during the morning we wondered if the day would be cancelled! Fog cleared came back again and rained on and off all day. With the new Tein suspension we ran full soft and dropped the tyre pressures accordingly Even still Keith had a job to get the power down with all the standing water. He managed 6th overall and 3rd in class with a time of 1:03:615 Round 5 – Clockwise (Sunday) Cloudy but dry start to the day, slight standing water in the in the first practise with plenty over steer due the long session and 8+laps With the Toyo R888’s overheating and started to go off. Tyre pressure and suspension setting changed Keith went out going quicker and quicker. He was quickest in class in practise and going quicker but with two Evo’s hot on his heels it was going to be close. In qualifying Keith managed a personal best of 56.851 his fastest time yet the suspension making a huge difference to how the car felt. Not forgetting it Is still a full weight road car against full on race trim motors. Less than a second separated the top three in class. Then in the final Wayne Sutherland managed quicker just beating Keith by less than 300ths of a second. It was close all day, Keith came second in class although his time was unbeaten in class. Well done to Keith and looking forward to the final in September

While I've no doubt these are an improvement over tired rubber bushes not all polyurethane is the same, also the process for making the bushes can differ widely. You mentioned the price of Superpro bushes but this is like comparing a Falken tyre to a Michelin they are not the same quality, Superpro offer a lifetime warranty for a reason Whiteline bushes use a different material to Superpro called synthetic elastomer this is cheaper to produce hence why they are cheaper than the Supepro but still offer's good compliance on the road. We have tried all the main poly bushes in various road cars, track cars and race/rally cars and the Superpro comes out on top, the Whiteline bushes are still excellent though and great if you are looking to save a bit of money.

Were off to (a hopefully sunny) Knockhill again this weekend for rounds 4 and 5 of SLS. Supporting Keith Cowie in his R35 GTR whos currently second in the championship. We have new Tein suspension fitted this week which we are hoping will improve lap times. We are there for Saturday and Sunday so if anyone's coming along pop over and say hello

Top result

I would say most of the time the slave cylinder sorts it, very rare for the master cylinder to need changed and its more of an involved job than changing the slave

Wouldn't imagine it would be a chain issue at that mileage, might be worth a call to Mark at abbey to see if he has any ideas

P0300 is a random misfire and P0011 is Intake valve timing control so it could point to and issue with the chain/tensoner what mileage has the car covered?

did he rule out the chain being stretched?

Opps sorry should have taken my own advice there sorry mate

Its just the old roulette wheel that is car insurance

Pretty shocking really as they simply unbolt from the units

Nissan will only supply them with the complete VCT unit Dan, so around £800 + VAT each!

Just a quick update Nissan finally got some stocks of the Nismo tee as shown in previous post but have taken all that they had to a festival in Germany, they are coming back this week so I am to call them again Friday to check if they have arrived.
