Calder is putting together a little 2 day Road Touring Rally all to be held on the premises at Calder Park on March 11-12.

Basically this will be like a mini Dutton Rally etc in that events will range from track, to drag, to motokhana auto tests. I understand they will utilise the the track, the motorbike training area and even the ThunderDome.

You can enter either as a driver only or as a driver / co-driver team.

Requirements are the usual track day requirements of LS2 or equivalent license, helemt, fire extinguishers and wrist to ankle clothing.

Entry fee is very reasonable at $350pp.

More detail here> http://www.motorsport.com.au/news/rallymastsers.htm

Down side is it is on the same weekend as our Championship Round at Phillip Island. However despite this I am entering into this event.

Cheers.

Hey - it's just been announced over the weekend as part of this event one of the track "layouts" to be used will be the GP Track Layout which incorperates both the main track and the Dome into one lap. This layout has only ever been used once before for the 1989 World Touring Car round - which was won funnily enough by a Skyline!

Here's the layout

It doesn't take very long so you should only need to be there for half an hour max. Gives you a good excuse to take the day off and put the zillion stickers I'm sure they will give us on.

The only oddity compared to a normal track day requirement is 2kgs worth of fire extinguishers instead of 1. (Which is the same requirement for the Dutton). So if you have a 1kg one already you can simply put in another one and that is sufficiant.

So far we could have a nice little SAU contingent attending this! :)

:P

Are you guys doing this event by yourself? I have just put out some feelers for some NSW Co-Drivers. NSW cant lose!

Normally I'd do an event like this with a co-driver but in this case I'm not confident in the life span of my engine so I'm entering as driver only.

Plus - my usual co-driver is convinced that in these types of competitions his car is better so this will be a good test to see if it really is or not.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
