Hey guys

Just letting everyone here know that we (GtirOz & EvolutionOz) are holding an lvma/skidpan day at mt cotton on Saturday the 8th of July

Anyone from Skylinesaustralia is welcome to to come along, just pm me if you are interested. There will be evos, gtirs, silvias, wrx's etc....

An LVMA is a Large Vehicle Manouvering Area. It is where Semi Trailer drivers are trained to handle their rigs, so its quite a large area.

Usually there are around three events set up on it, a timed slalom, a timed motorkhana, and an untimed motorkhana on the training road.

We will be running this section similar to what we have done of WRX Club Days in the past. It will consists of 3 simultaneous activities (2 x different timed driving motorkhana type tests, 1 x windy hillclimbs). This means that the group would be split into 3 evenly, and you would rotate in your groups between each activity for the duration of the morning

The skidpan is basically a figure 8 track which is sprinklered down with water, so you can slip and slide all you like, it really shows you the limit of your car, and can really help with your driving.

The LVMA session will be in the morning, with the skidpan following in the afternoon.

you can do either one, or both of the events.

Location:- Mt Cotton Driver Training Center

Date:- Saturday 8th July

Cost:- heres some info from one of the organisers

For the LVMA area you really need min 15 cars to make it feasible and no more than 24 cars to ensure everyone gets plenty of play time. Skidpan bookings allow up to 12 people.

LVMA $1056 (no max participants but suggest no more than 24)

SKIDPAN $1056 (max 12 participants)

So assuming that we get around 15 people for the LVMA, it will be $70.40 per person

And with 12 people for the skidpan, it will be $88

Noise Requirements:-

1. The Hirer acknowledges that all invitees and participants of courses are advised of the Centre's noise management regulations prior to the commencement of any activities. Participants or vehicles not meeting these regulations will be denied use of the facility.

2. Noise measurement:

Engines to be measured as follows (in accordance with Australian Design Rule standards):

i) 5 cylinders or less @ 4000rpm.

ii) 6 cylinders @ 3500rpm.

iii) 8 cylinders @ 3500rpm.

iv) more than 8 cylinders @ 4300rpm.

v) rotary engine @ 4500rpm.

The measurement will not exceed a noise level of 90db(A) @ 3m 45degrees from the exhaust

the LVMA isnt tested, but the skidpan is because it is closer to a residential area.

i will be bringing along my 3ccd digital video cam and tripod, and will copy all the footage to dvd for people :mellow:

please post if you would be interested, money will need to be put down as soon as next week, as a deposit is needed before the 9th of June

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.

When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
