I'd love to come to this, but Sunday is a bitch of a day!

I hate the thought of having to drive most of the day and then drive back to Newcastle!

You Sydney lot have it so easy when it comes to race tracks and track days, we can't even get the council to get their heads out of their arses when it comes to getting ours approved!

How come only 1 track day this year?

Insurance just way too much these days?

i will try and make this i reckon it would be good fun. Could do with someone with more experiance giving me some pointers :(

There will be heaps of experienced people there to take you out and look after you. This will be a very noob friendly track day with heaps of instruction.

There is a limit but it's a generous limit. No doubt 60% of the people in this thread who have posted up that they will come wont actually make it.

Yeah this is likely! Although the last few track days have sold out pretty comfortably from memory so there should be no hesitation when deciding whether or not to run the day IMO ;)

The other people that I really want there are the club elders, the guys with heaps of experience and fast cars. We need you guys to be our instructors.

I might be able to secure the services (not his car) of a Fujitsu V8 Support Series driver if your interested or you think he might be of some assistance.

I'll try to get my PNV back together for this.

Cheers, D

OK I reckon i'll be in on this, another track day n00bie so stick me in the n00bie group.

Will there be a group booking for accomodation for the sat night, or just organise it yourself?

I'm sure we'll manage to organise a group booking! Probably a bit closer to the date I assume.

I definately recommend staying the night though!!!

F'uck it... I'm in!

That's the spirit!

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
