hey guys this would be my first club sprint day, would I be better off signing up for the driver training? Will there be instructors at the track? Do I still get the same amount of laps? Sorry I was going to ask these questions on the WRX forums but it seems my username hasn't been activated yet.

I haven't done a circuit driver course either and don't want to be getting in everbody's way if I sign up for the sprints... am I being paranoid?

mate the best thing id to do the driver training cos then at least you get to see what the track like and not have the problem of some of the fast car come up from behind and you blocking them and them getting pissed .

so my advice would be to do the training.

Looks like there will be a few training so you wont feel out of place at all.

also if you need help with anything there are many people who will help.

how late can you sign up for this?

I havent recieved any info from SAU or CAMS regarding my licence i signed up for at the drift day last weekend, so dunno my CAMS LIC#, also have 2 things to do to my car to make it track ready, and dont wanna pay an then not be able to run due to not passing scrutineering.

if I'm not at this one, i'll be at the next one. Best I do DT first go too, as havent done a track day on 4 wheels before.

Its up to you but i dont think driver training is a must. Its not a bad idea, i took Snowman with me my first time out...it was really good as after listening carfully to every word he said i knew exactly what not to do :D

I think its a good idea as you at least get some pointers on the layout at the track.

And at the end of the day, even the seemingly simple things like how to turn the steering wheel, we are all different and whatever is comfortable to you...but there are some bad habits that ppl bring to the track which may catch you out at speed.

When you paid SAU for CAMS license you would have got a CAMS 30 days receipt and that will do.

It is a wrx club requirement that you do DT if you have not done any track work previously.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      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 ?

      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

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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.
