If there is enough interest we should be able to fit in a drift session.

I think from memory I got 5 track days and about 10,000 k's out of my compliance tyres (read cheap and nasty) so yes there will be some major wear but as long as they are not almost gone already you will still get many more k's out of them.

Please ignor my ilitericy (ha ha), I re-read the post to see SAU & RENEWS, not UAS & RENEWS. I will book in once the minister of entertainment and finance passes my application.

What about spectators can they just turn up, is there a entry fee???? or is it a closed event as we are new and moving to sydney and I would like to check out ORAN PARK as we have only seen it on tv and some of the drivers :)

I live about 5 mins away from Oran, I'll be there for sure. I've been going out there at every opportunity since I heard the track is due to be closed.

If you need a flag marshall, i'm more than happy to give it a go - i'll need some pointers as to what needs to be done.

Cheers,

Matt

No entry fee for spectators and you could even volunteer to be a flaggie like Matt.

Matt we would very much like you to be a flaggie as we need a few.

Thanks for volunteering, I am booking you in for it.

Abo Bob,

Yesterday at the Aaron McGill Drive day my wife did not get a chance to drive my car and said she would like to get out and have a go. Whats the best way to go about this. I understand she will need her L2S, but she would like to have me in the car when she goes round the track, will this be a possibility on the day. Whats the cost for 2 drivers and 1 car? The wife does not like Oran Park that much so she is probably only going to do 1 or 2 sessions.

Let me know in a post or call me to discuss.

Thanks

Let me In.... :laugh:

I was out on Sunday at OC GP in the new 15 year old datsun & want my final go in the 72 (REAL!!!) skyline, more fun beter noise.

She is going up for sale for real this time, I can't/won't fit a baby seat in it and the boss said I'm only allowed some cars....

She is going up for sale for real this time

hahaha. that's a good one. havent laughed this hard in a while.

ps. I am also interested to know what the situation is with one car, two drivers?

Well make sure you pay up on pay day so you don't run out of money.

This will be a worthwhile day for you to get a good feel for your car.

There will be plenty of people around to instruct on the day.

About time fatzzzzzz. Let's see how that thing grips!

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
