Hey all.

A thought occured to me. I regularly see track days organised but is SAU an offical car club to paying members? If so does this mean it would make you eligable to buy a cams licence and attend cams events?

The track day are organised by www.timeattack.com.au. The SAU club is not cams affilated from what I know so if you joined and wanted a cams licence, you will need to join another club as well....

There are very few tracks that are CAMS affiliated anyway and as Paul (MountainRunner) said, we race at QR and they use AASA.

You would have to travel a long way to need a CAMS licence unless the organiser required it for a tarmac rally around here????

funny you say that as we are competing in a cams event at qr over sat and sunday next weekend. This weekend is the sprints and top gear and next weekend is a national cams event at QR.

Dont get CAMS and race tracks confused as to how they are affiliated.

It really depends on who is organising the event. QR will accept most affiliated clubs who use AASA or CAMS. It is just that CAMS is now pricing themselves out of the market and new members are wondering what they are paying so much for.

actually, the ONLY racetrack that doesn't use CAMS is QR, and even then as R33_racer pointed out, that's only for their own sprint series and topgear race metings, and mountainrunner's timeattack track days. EVERY OTHER racetrack, sprint series, hillclimb, autocross, motorkhana, khanacross that I know of uses CAMS.

Not to worry...CAMS will get alot better slowly as all the fogeys start moving on and the newer and younger folk start changing things for the better. Too many old people stuck with their old mind set and old old ways and dont want to change cause if it worked back in the 60's why change it now?

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
