Duncan,

slicks are allowed. just means you compete in Type 4

its definitely an event worth doing. last year we got 5 runs of the Conrod Supersprint and 4 runs at the Mountain Straight Hillclimb.

Good idea Chris

Also, ill be coming up but not driving (someone lend me their car for a run?) the event, has someone organised accomodation?

If so, ill come up and do the pub thing with you lot, otherwise ill leave Sydney early Sunday and head up :P

Paul,what Harry said is correct,,,but running slicks anyway is not a great idea. You won't get any heat in to them and you would be much better off running semi's mate.

You will enjoy the weekend though.

Neil.

Cant make sunday - in the office - and spewing you cant make it Jon :rolleyes:

for those who have entered - theres my thread in the other section - just post there so we can get a list of who is coming etc

My application for a leave pass was refused, apparently we have to look after Zane's little girl for the night and apparently being 35 weeks pregnant means you have to have your husband round for moral support. Enjoy yourselves!

hey a live in bathurst and will be up there all weekend with my friends racing there 200sx, should be unreal weekend, there was a hill climb last weekend and was great to watch, some bloke in a open wheeler broke the record for thrn weekend with a 21 something...

I'll be up there too but won't have the skyline cause of the tree, hope to have it back on the road in january so i can drive on the cruise we are trying to organise.... just hope the council pays for the repairs.... i'll bring up some photos to show you kane. But it looks like it'll take a while for them to decide whether they pay for the repairs or if it goes to court. :(

Neil was up there competing in the capri too, and a local GTR was entered as well, it was a good weekend with a huge field (150 entrants!). Crap weather on fridy night tho!

It was an interesting competition for outright class, Gumley has won the last few years and did hold the record, 22.81....but over the weekend 4 people went under the record, pretty amazing.

And the $300k specialist car that flew out from the UK didn't take the win :whistling: It was a local F3000 car instead....21.62!

yeh that gtr was mad.. anyone know what mods he has???

yes crap weather friday but not to bad the other days.

also a unreal 260z with 6.6l in it 4wd to heard someone say gtr running gear?????

hahah you probably heard me dribbling crap then! I was under the impression it did have gtr running gear, but they were kind enough to leave the car there overnight so I could roll around underneath.....looks like hilux 4wd drivetrain.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
