Hi Guys,

I have put the final running list up on the site:

http://www.timeattack.com.au/coming_trackday.php

I'll be at the MacDonalds Jindalee also, but at around 6am. lol

Getting all the final details together. Looks set to be a big day !!

See you all there.

Paul

So all it costs to enter is $20 a session? So you can participate for $40 for both events.

Or is there another price for the full day. Sorry if I am blind and have missed it!

Edited by zaffa

Yea you have missed it. lol.

The $20 is for the 'Shoot Out' event only. It is an extra event for those already doing the track day proper which is $120 for a half day.

Plus the event is fully booked out.

We are on the final count down now !!

Sorry sometimes I think my eyes are painted on! lol

Shall be interested in this when I get my license back, as it sounds quite good! Have you got dates set for next years track days. The time attack website doesnt seem to be working for me?

Thanks

If anyone else is interested meeting up to cruise out to the track, it at the Caltex opposite the Mazda and Subaru car yards near the bus depot at Toowong.

7am departure.

Come out with us Mr gilly or is that to late for you.

We are only spectators, but i spose if your racing you will have to leave earlier.

where the hell is jindalee? lol

Do you remember Amazons water park near there, take the exit just as you go over the bridge on the centenary Hwy. Maccas is up around the corner.

Bring some spare engine oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid & coolant...

Dont forget to bring a hand full of spanners and a few screwdrivers, althought ive never needed my tools at the track I never run the risk, just incase something does happen... Dont forget to bring food and drinks and your camera also...

Wow i wasnt expecting that reply. If something caused me to loose my engine oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid or coolant i think im gonna need a lil more than just a handful of spanners and a few screwdrivers lol. I guess its not a bad idea tho incase a clamp comes loose and needs to be tightened. My car is only lightly modified but i think my air/fuel ratio is like 10.5:1 at high revs so yeah it drinks. Plus the new fuel pump needs more fuel in the tank than stock so i'll take plenty of fuel just incase. Thanks for all your help leading upto 2morrow guys. Cant wait to meet u all out there!!

Yeah I always take a few spare fluids... You never know when you will need them...

Better to have them there and not use them, then to not have them and need them...

If you need a few spanners tho Ill be there, evryone know my car...

Was a great day, it was good to finally meet you guys.

I will definately catch up with you all at one of the Tuesday night dinners.

How nice was that GT2 porsche.

P.S. See you all on Sunday for the cruise..

Wholy crap, what a crazy day. I'm so exhuasted lol Thanks to all the event organisers. I learnt so much more today than i thought i would. For example driving on the track in street tyres is a bad idea, understeering through fast corners and over steering through slow corners doesnt do much for my time. It was however alot of fun counter steering at 160k's! I admit i was the slowest in the arvo session but from what i could see i was by a long shot the youngest. I'll get there one day, once i join the evo population haha

    • No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.
    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
