DIDO... as usual great day.

I thought the witches hats were a great idea, i normally tip in too early and wash out the front end on the exit or corners, i think it helped my line.

...and life begins with DJ-01s, speed limiter thru turn 1 !!!!!

Ok, I've got some pics from the day, I don't know all of you so I'm not familiar with whose car is whose in many cases. :D

Please also note that the track day was my first ever attempt at panning practice, and as you can see there's more practice to be had, so sorry if your car is blurry. :D I can only say I'll be at many more track days, so hopefully in the future these pics will come out consistently good. That said, some of these shots look pretty cool I reckon. Not a bad first effort. :(

Enjoy!

Cheers to every one who went. I had a great day on the track for my first time its good to have had no incidents or failures with the car.

Thanks Roy, I enjoyed your 32 aswell. Next time you drive mine it might have breaks and I'll try and dial out the instability in the rear.

You can try a bit more boost next time!!!

If any one out there thinks their a quick driver and havn't been on a track, think again. And inject your balls with steroids too if you want to take turn one at more than 180k.

By any chance did some one pick up my ferrari hat at the Cricketers Arms. I think I left it there?????

Guys, was a top day... good to get back to the days where we had plenty of space in our group... just a shame that the nembies had to run with the oldies... shit... gotta think of a better way of putting that! They could have got more of an opportunity to get out with people that have been before rather than following them. I think following helped at least Carlo though... And it appears that we have a few more addictees!

Unfortunatly I was not as lucky as the rest of you... I managed to shear 3 bolts in my exhaust manifold and thus have a car that will be off the road now untill the 16th of April. Oh well could have been worse.

I'm looking forward to the next one... which will be on the Monday the 9th of June (that is ages away) however it is a public holiday... so no excuses!

:Owned:

Majanal said there was a shortcut over to turn 5...but I think he lied.

And I would have got away with it if it wasn't for the paparazzi on the hill there.....the price of fame.....

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
