Liz - I wasn't holding back, I had a dud entry to the straight, and the car had been miss firing all day (lambda sensor died, couldn't tune it), so I was never gonna catch you, but you were quick through the kink, I just didn;t expect you to slow down so much for turn 1 - I didn't want to hit you, and I was aiming at turn one at the fastest possible speed - to avoid a massive lock up, and or a massive accident, I aimed for the greenery - which turned kitty litter brown very quickly... and I couldn't drive it through it, it was soo soft by then

Dunc - I killed it, but we think turbo seal - We won't touch it til later in the week, we need a break from working on it, dad spent all last week getting it ready for sunday

Cheers

Matt

PS - Any pics of my car on the track??

dont worry Duncan i wont be running 2 bar next time....but will get the better clamps and maybe the silicon...

Is any other newbie lying in bed thinking about the next track day and how they can improve their times?

Absolutely. Ive been thinking about the next day and how i could handle a few corners better without spinning 65 times around! how did you go on your timings this time around anthony?

I love spining I got it down to a fine art!

Im looking foward to the next track day and i tell you i will definateley have semis next time that was the only thing letting me down on the weekend was my tires my brakes were fine i was out braking most the cars even the ones that were faster so definatly need better tyres next time. Anybody got and other photos of my gun grey 32 the one with all the advertising on it any on the track would be great.

Traman i dont know if anyone timed me....semi slicks are definitely required...my 245's all round are good in the wet but average on a track....plus i need more driving experience.....when is the next track day?

Great day, heaps of track time, wet and dry conditions and nice cold temps for the tubos.

My only problem with the cold temps was that by the time my tyres were up to temp my brakes were overheating, (dam standard brakes!)

Thanks to the organisers, well done.

you drive your car well...get good pads on board.

It was an awesome day - A huge thank you to the organisers/volunteers.

I have an interesting helmet cam shot of someone getting a bit loose in front. I'll find an editing program and cut it down small enough for youtube. Then the driver can put their hand up :nyaanyaa: and say who it was hehe.

Thanks again for a great day... I wish I didn't have to leave early.

    • 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.
