Who is keen.

I am very keen after having my accident.

I would rather spin out and hit a cone then hit an enbankment again. Alot cheaper in my mind.

I also want to feel what my car can do in the right environment.

Who is keen on a safe and controlled environment to see what their cars are capable of doing?

If I get enough interest i will look into it further.

All i know of is the AAMI driver awarness course thing out at AAMI stadium.

Does anyone else know of other driver training courses in SA.

I'd be keen

I would prefer a day at Malalar with plenty of practice time (not all theory).

I believe Manta Racing can arrange this with a pro driver (can't remember who) if we can get sufficient numbers.

For those contemplating this it would be worth budgeting for new brake pads (unless changed recently) new fluids (brake, and engine/trans oils) as well as a wheel allignment prior to the track day.

very keen

from memory i have seen similar thread at least a few times in the past.

Everytime, we have a lot of people express their interest but can't make it at the end for various reasons

so please ask for a deposit before organise anything to avoid disappointment

As Maxx said.

I have seen a few other threads like this and have noticed that ppl say they are keen but don't pull through in the end.

I will continue my research in the matter and once i have finer details I will post them up.

And yes a deposit will be needed so I can lock in numbers.

As 4door_Sleeper said.

New brake pads will be a must. Coolant/ oils well i change mine too often. LOL well I did when my car was on the road. 3months baby :(.

I will talk to Clem out at Mallala when I go there for the G1 drift comp on the 17th.

I will also look into this Manta Racing company.

Oh and who is the Stig. LOL, Who claims they are the bomb of driving??????????

For some reason I am Looking at you Joel (cubes) :woot:

I think if u are with Shannons they will either give a discount of full refund of the cost of the course (they do with bike rider safe training) as they deem it to be a benefit to you not having any accidents...

Cubes aint a racer....let him take out the baby seat in the rear of the car :woot:

I 'd be interested too... maybe we should all just join the evo club track day in march and have a thrash round mallala... of course there is no instruction involved... I don't think so anyway!

OK AAMI Dkilled Drivers course is out of the question.

Under 25's only or some crap like that.

I think a track day out at Mallala will be the only way to do this.

I wish Port Gawler was still open. Or AIR.

More research needed.

Oh and who is the Stig. LOL, Who claims they are the bomb of driving??????????

For some reason I am Looking at you Joel (cubes) :woot:

haha how cool would it be to have a control car and everyone gets 3 laps to determine.... the stig of adelaide :(

oh well we can dream

    • 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.
