at least it was only a silvia that bit the concrete. good riddance i say. that engine got a chance to shine in a real car after that.

I really wanna come bob,

But im getting payed monthly now... I get payed on wednesday and its all gone + some as i preordered my xbox360,

What is the latest i can pay? Also being an SAU NSW Member i have a cams licence dont i?

Hey guys,

Get your payment in ASAP... this will be a top day that all can enjoy, I know I'm putting my name down, the car WILL be ready by then, so come on out and have a blat with me!

This day will be fantastic for all levels, from beginners to full race car's (all in different categories of course). And we can have a good old friendly time battle with the rotor boys and girls also... that is always some fun :)

If we are lucky the boys and I might get a chance to go for a drift sometime and smoke some serious rubber only inchs away from each other...

Be there or be square kids!

Dan.

Oh man, I really really wanna be in for this, but I've started having alot of trouble with cooling lately, and its put me back alot on getting the front mount :P

I may have to just come down to spectate, at least then I can check things out before I do em.

I sooooo wanted to start doing track days this year though :(

The day is structured in groups that go out together one every 10 seconds from the pits - not a grid. The groups will be of cars that are doing similar lap times.

Last track day we did two car sprints in the middle of the day for 5 laps which was fun and I think we are doing this again if there is enough interest.

Mr Plunk - perhaps you could start a thread for us to help you with your cooling problems.

Jay - we are always willing to help out newbies. We want you to be addicted to the track like us. :mad:

There is no test for the licence.

You need a helmet.

There are a few threads on here about getting your car ready for the track but we can easily tell you the basics when it gets closer to the day.

Also, one of the more experienced and level headed guys will be coming out with you on your first laps to give you pointers on saftey and how to get the most out of your car.

There are not many track days better for newbies than SAU/RENEW ones but the fast guys still get free rein in their group.

Does that help everyone?

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
