Track Times

Check Jason Edlgey's times in a love boat, first time at Wakefield and 2nd time ever at any track and 1 min 52 semi slicks stock engine and turbo's full road bling trim. They don't all ware cardigans and smoke a pipe.

Slot car went well 1 min 45.56, KAAZ fixed traction problem although being 2 way it pushes the car into a few corners so looking at doing something here. Reedy if looking here what is your KAAZ one or 1.5 or 2 way?

Can't wait for the big one with the SAU Vic boys 10th November.

John got a 1.5 way I believe it doesn't lock up so much under braking?

Had a great day as well boys especially the last few sessions.

Thanks to Abo and boys for organising it.

nice work on your times reedy, i see you are chipping away nicely. :laugh:

1.5 is definately the go for circuit work. why you bought the 2 way is beyond me johnny boy.

I saw someone taking photos at the last turn into the straight a few times. Silver Arrows maybe?

I hope there are some of mine.

The more I think about it, the more I realise how much fun I actually had, and how much I really would prefer to be back out there than sitting here in my cubicle at work infront of this damn laptop.

some good times there guys (some not so good! lol).

I would have liked to have been out there, but a massive sat night, and sunday on the couch in front of the 2.6 metre wide screen with bathurst on meant there was no chance.

I'm actually a little suprised with some of the times, I would have expected more!

good work to John on FTD! that dude in the zed is doing a good job of a 1:52 first time out too.

well theres no excuses for you next time..

you can come show us newbie's hows its done

yes, 1.5way is the goer for track use, unless you are into that weird sideways driving.

silver, i dunno about showing the way, i'm no track master! lol. certainly no gun driver either, i think my first time at EC was 1:58s :D since then down to 1:54.6 but hoping to be a little better next time. still driving my poor little R32... hehe.

thanks to those who organised it and the flaggies.

had fun playing cat and mouse with stan

more track time would of been great but had to shoot off.

Fun watch the cat n mouse.!

Seemed like when the wind changed alot of people left.

Just wanted to say thanks to Adam for setting up this great day and to whomever was involved that I didnt get to meet yesterday. There was clearly a lot of work that went into making this day happen and to all involved well done.

I was really stoked to run a 1 min 52.614 told you Adam the tune would help

There was a few interesting cars I had some tussles with. A 1977 mustang type celica had some mumbo down the straight but lacked in the corners. A white R33 with semis? was going great but seemed to struggle in the corners also.

I trailer the car as I have the slicks fitted for track days and it saves me the hassle of trying to fit all my tools etc and tyres into the zed and is also a saftey factor in case something goes bang!!

Next time out I will hopefully be chasing down a few of those top 5 cars.

Cheers

The RX7 had a split fuel line. The reason the guys couldn't put the fire out probably is because the lines were on fire from front to back of the car.

I've been over to the RENEW website and they have been effusive with their thanks for the flaggies efforts. We all really appreciate you guys.

Check my new sig :D

Here is the rest of the times.

I cant find the link to the thread?

Regardless, I had a ball. So much fun. Soooo much fun. Sorry I didn't open her up and get her sideways near the guys at turn two. I didn't want to burn the tires this time around, I have no more monies for new ones after that Oran day!

Dont worry mate - that pipe of yours sounds awesome on corner exit :D

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
