ahahahahaha. Nice one Toulia.

I just wanted to give direct thanks to bob, dan, neil, duncan and fatz!

Thank you for making this day so very memorible!!!!

Thanks goes to eveyone else and the rotory club for making it happen!!!!

First thought this morning when i woke up... *says to girflriend* babe can we go to oran park today?

I cant wait for the next meet at the next track! Lets hope i still have a car at that time! (i dont want to sell her now, i want to modify it more.)

For having stock Suspension and not many power mods i was happy with my three times:

- 1.38min

- 1.33min

- 1.30min

I will start another thread for track times, for all tracks and could one of the modz sticky it under the 1/4 mile times which silver-gtst started.

theres a track time thread in motorsport i think

Fantastic pics mate,,,,your a legend. Remind me to book you next time the cars on the track.

Beautiful work

Neil.

Yeah, it was a good day, I was a little pissed with the wasted time and the 10 cars on the track rule, but one of the RENEWS guys came up at the end and said it was mainly due to the new CAMS officials pushing them around.

1.22 Im happy thats, it my fastest lap time. We can now get ready for the next AArom Mcgill day in 4 weeks, I will post it up Monday morning. Did anyone get any shoots of me on 3 wheels into turn 1?

The cams people were very strict overall, which in some cases was a good thing

the 10 car on the track rule was ok, until the marshall stuffed up and sent 11 out in your group, then when you changed tyres/checked pressure (it looked low ion the front from my spot at turn 11) she told the marshall to hold you until the next group, still, from how she sounded on the radios i though she was going to make you wait for your next group session and that you would be out for at least 20 mins while the others had their go's

Your car looks great out there - unlike your ass at the drivers briefing. (i was standing next to duncan)

If the McGill day is the same curcuit - im in!!!

Also, any requests from - http://www.itexcellence.com.au/sau/default.html

please email anthony (at) itexcellence.com.au

He is also more than happy to do personally shoots for your car just drop him an email!

Mate i think you'll find your quickest lap was 1.33, check natsoft for fastest times. I didn't see anyone running a 1.30, Your quickest was 1.33, sorry to disappoint you. :

Well it was good to be out at another trackday, especially the full circuit at OP which is extremely rare however if this CAM's day was run any slower I would have gone home 10yrs younger.

Having only 10 cars on a full GP circuit is extremely lame even more so when their was more than half the track not even being used because most drivers were bunching up. Having a 40min drivers briefing is pointless and starting the first session at 10:30 is a waste of atleast 1.5hrs of track time (every trackday ive been to the briefings have been at 8am and racing starts at 9am) and did I mention that 1980's BMW's suck ass despite what some people may think?

On the other hand their were some very quick rotors out there, 1 in particular had the main straight flaggys ducking for cover everytime he drove past as it backfired going into turn 1 :D

Was good to see some new faces at the track both on and off the circuit. It just shows that their is still plenty of interest for private days just the costs and availability are still a problem.

Great day.. great day. My first time spectating at a track day too. I tell ya, I'm now itching to get onto the track. So much so I think I have a rash :worship:

Anyway here are a few of my shots. They're a bit soft. Wish I had a bigger lens...

From both Amanda and I thanks to Benm and Oz for their support during the day. And thanks to Abobob for organising such a great day! (AGAIN!!)

For someone that's basically only gotten her licence to drive, and only been driving a manual for 7months I reckon Amanda did bloody brilliantly! :)

ahh, now i know who dragged the dirt onto the track... lol

i had just assumed it was pete.

Well done to all involved in getting this day together.

Top time Adam, man you got those 4 doors around there quick. :D

Weather was much kinder than the last track day.

Spewing that I had work commitments, would have been

fun to have another boat out there chasing the Liners. LOL :worship:

and the flame thrower

As Shaun may not see this pic - ill just add for anybody wondering, Yes - it did burn/warp the back bar, and yes i have photos od the bar after a trip to the carwash, i will upload them at work tommorrow :worship:

After one full lap (to get exhaust temp up), it flamed out on every change of gear and everytime he got off the gas approaching a braking zone

Not really helping fuel economy :D

And i bet if she tried the BMW owner could do a 1min50sec :worship:

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
