Tosh,

Thanks to yourself and Powerplay once again, it was a great day all round. It was also nice to meet all the fellow enthusiasts at the track, mine was the little red S15 silvia(700). I had fun chasing the racing Skylines while trying not to get too close to those flames... :happy:

Cheers

Patrick

it was an awesome day, James (nfi) and i were having great fun beating the skylines (hey Liz that was us) in our group with our dead stock nankang-clad mx-5 :(:) :)

hey!!!! i didn't recognise you, should have come and said g'day!!!!

I swear you guys must have gotten cranky at me overtakingy ou then sliding off the track every 5 seconds!!! After I overtook you guys very late on the straight.. turn 2 got quite exciting for a second there! hahaa.

nice pics E_Lu-SHuN, especially love the one where I'm heading for the dirt.... that's how it's done boys!

can't wait to get the new clutch in and hit the track again on sunday!

Hi guys & gals,

Terry (Bathurst R32 GTR) and Rod (Gibson R31) phoned this morning to say a special thank you. They really enjoyed meeting everybody and had a great day.

Terry promised he will buy new tyres before the next track day, he has been putting it off because the GTR hardly ever goes out on the track.

So with new tyres fitted expect to see the GTR running at full pace at the next track day :P

Oh, and Rod has informed me he is bringing his passenger seat to throw me into :D

Cheers

Jo

Hey Arup,

Yes I have been lurking here for a while now, I had lots of fun trying to get into the 11's on the day I think a set of semi-slicks is the go but maybe I can find .23 of a second somewhere... :D

Good to see you guys go back on the track in the afternoon after you were looking at leaving early... :D

Cheers

Patrick

A few extra pounds of boost on the main straight or a NISMO LSD perhaps? ;)

I saw you and recongnised you but every time i was around u were busy talking to others..ill c u at skidpan day again..

it was me driving when u were coming off all the time (must have been the pressure to keep up was it not? :) )

i wasnt annoyed at all, in fact it was sort of satisfying seeing an r33 not keeping up, as i drive an r33 normally..

haha i remember the late overtaking on the straight, i though id let you through since i was planning on catching you in the corners later anyway, it felt like a proper race at that point haha, although i was slightly worried that you would come off the track badly halfway through the manouver and take me out lol!

its a shame you couldnt get into the 11s but i guess it will just make it more fun for next time!

you were the one who really convinced us to stuff leaving then for work and go back on the track, the last session finished the day off well since we were standing around waiting for ages before that! thanks for convincing us and helping quickly dump all the stuff we had packed back onto the floor :)

sounds like you guys had an awesome day.

Ive just started a new job - so going to be a bit hard to get time off for up coming trackies.

dammit!!

Great photos!!!!

:laugh:

Looks like everyone had a great time.

Wish I could have made it but a little hard to thrash a zed without a motor.

Thanks Tosh for the invite and I'll do my best to make the next track day. ;)

thanks nfi (ps i have nfi where your post went, looks like someone deleted it!)

the mx5 looked like a heap of fun, so many people underestimate them coz they look so girly! lol

I think if I had spent a little more time behind Kennedy I would have been able to creep my way a little bit closer to your 1.18 as he's an excellent driver!

Can't wait to see the s15 out there!

    • 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
