Well, its on again, the Bathurst Speed Weekend.

On the Saturday is a supersprint - standing start near the top of conrod right down thru the chase finishing at the main finish line.

Sunday is even better, a hillclimb up the track from conrod right up to macphillamy park.

$115 for each day, very cheap! And a good opportunity for a beer or 3 on sat night.

All you need is long clothing, AS approved helmet, fire extinguisher and battery triangle (and 2nd bonnet restraint if your car is pre 83)

aww shit

my old car

boys, this truly is a top event

the supersprint starting on conrod is tops

and as for the hillclimb, you get to do a "tyre warming exercise" (no shit, thats what they officially call it) beforehand./ so smoko the tyres

get entered

duncan, pls keep me informed of this event. id like to come watch on sunday. cheers, mark

Sounds good. I guess we should start organising accomodation now.

Minimum 4 runs, max 100 entries on day one, minimum 3 runs, max 80 entries on day 2.

I certainly hope we get more than 3 runs in one day. That would suck arse to go all that way for 7 runs over 2 days.

Yeah i was reading that... it seems a little harsh :)

I guess though.. 100 vehicles is a fair number, but still, so little runs as a minimum is suprising. Hopefully they dont get so many entrants!

no such thing as "track days" at bathurst using the whole track. unless you are racing a race car, built to a class you have no hope of driving the full track under closed 'race' conditions. :(

(Well, for watching unless someone donates a car)

finish your own car you butt pirate! this is 2 months away. stop bludging and get crackin'. gives you something to aim for. :(

You know what ive been doing this afternoon?

Shopping :dry:

There's just too much to consider, its getting to be a giant headache

Still, ill be driving up in one of the cars either way, so yeah, pub on Saturday night sounds good

You know the worst part about this? I was having those CV joint problems when this was on last year, and only the week before i magaed to get it all finished/fixed, so i missed out :P Still, the observant ones wouldve noticed it parked up there on top of the hill :P

Ya gotta love a race car driver that doesn't read the sup regs!!!. Sunday's hillclimb starts on Mountain Straight not Conrod. Duncan were you on the turps when you posted up?.

Talking of turps,,,Saturday night sounds like a top idea to me,,,good thinking 99.

hge better be ready buddy or you could always use another car or 2 in the stable.

Come on everybody fill those entry forms out and lets have some fun.

Neil.

ps - with the supersprint - is there any point with the 180 speed limiter???

I guess it depends on your power, I didn't get it with my old gtst.

And last Time I did it there was no-where near 100 entries, and I got 6 runs each day....which is a lot for a hillclimb.

Also, don't forget its only $115 each day, its a great weekend away and not hard on the car.

supersprint is started halfway down conrod (in the dip) so if you do 180 before the kink you'll be a happy boy. easy done

supersprint i only got in about 5 last time, but damn it's fun

hillclimb i got plenty of runs

with any luck, it'll rain. makes for more fun

    • 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.
