Sorry if this has been asked in the previous 13 pages...but, this is my first trackday so i have a few questions..

What exactly is required?

1. Obviously a helmet, long sleeved shirt, anything else..?

2. Bonnet catch? Battery sticker thingy?

3. Also can we mount a camera inside our cars to catch the action? Will this pass scrutineering?

4. Do we need a fire extinguisher?

Thats about it really..

Cheers

1. Head to ankle to wrist clothing, and helmet

2. Standard one should do, not for this day i dont think

3. Yes, mount it firmly

4. Even if its not a must have, get a decent one

:rolleyes:

hehe yes. I think everyone learnt that lesson at the last track day!

Hey Steve - Are wakefield aware of the numbers for Wednesday? I'm just a bit concerned they'll be over crowded. I'm more han happy do a few laps hten sit out and let the QLDers and Victorias take the track .. but some of the other NSW people might not be as keen.

I spoke to them earlier, they're expecting the best part of 40 Skylines :laugh:

They seem confident they can handle all of us.....just like the accomodation last time :D

Are passengers allowed on open track days? :happy:

Not sure on that one

regardless of how much track time we get, this day is going to be an absolute BLAST!

the rules say passengers are allowed for tuition purposes.. not for "joy rides"

that being said, when i was there on the wednesday just past, there were a couple of guys there taking each other for joy rides in their falcons.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
