Another reason it happens around the dandenong area i would think is cause its so far away from calder. I have heard of the huge laverton drags and that. But they are closer to calder park. So really they should just go there.

But who can be stuffed going through city link all the time.

the place i work at now in dandy probly has a 2 kilometre straight road.

Where australia post is. Follow progress street for reference. Its pretty new, but its bound for some late night time trials, although only one exit. bummer. (could even have some drags inside the factories there come to think of it. they are huge.

But yeah, i say give more access to sandown raceway aswell. Night drags just like at calder.

Would get a big turn out i'd say.

ciao

i think if they opened up a new strip somwhere at the back of

deer park or somehwere...

charged 20 buxs entery

and was open 4 days a week

there would be no illigal street racing,,

but steve bracks is a poof and im gonna end up doin demos on

his front lawn again tonite in my 1985 magna

$20 tight asses wouldn't pay, but its getting there in terms of what's needed..

exactly zdenko (hey u said something intelligent? who is using your account??!)... see it just has to be an area that isn't a drag strip..drag strips are for full drag cars, not really street cars.

sanddown would be cool. Really the people who should be (cops and government) just aren't thinking of alternatives, so people will just get bored and street race. Until they come up with something, people will just continue to do so. But of course they make money $165 everytime they canary somebody so sad to say, but that seems to be what they'd prefer to do..

Actually, maybe we should be proactive and write some letters to our local MP's (anonymous of course)... with some intelligent suggestions. You never know, they might just take notice of it.

You'll be surprised what actually standing up and doing something intelligent about it rather than just wingeing about it can do....

It has got me what I have wanted many times. A well worded letter can do wonders if makes somebody at least thing for a moment outside their little box.

The problem is they probably only hear from dickheads about the whole thing which just reinforces their opinions that it should be banned under every circumstance, and more drastic crackdowns should be implemented.

theres no chance they will build another place for cars to race. 2 is enough. My question is what is the $17 which everyone is going to pay on rego going towards. Overseas travel for politicians or what. When you think about it. $17 isn't really that much, but when everyone has to pay it. Its close to $20 million dollars..

I think the problem with the racing meets are the liability insurance which the places have to pay. If they are cahrging shitloads for basketball places, imagine what they'd have to pay for racing events. would be huge.

yer, i know, that is a large part of the problem.. the liabilitity insurance. But why can't they just disclaim all responsibility?? and if people take the risk they do so on their own.

damn fat lawyers.. hate em all.. ****ing american bullshit creeping into our country.. get out .. hate hate!

I am not to sure. The way i see it, is if they say "enter at own risk", then they may not be able to operate, for saftey reasons, and the government will not allow it.

So seeing as the venue is taking on responsibility for what goes on there, they have to have the insurance (i would think). Its not only what happens on the track, spectators are also covered incase of a misshap.

Thats the way world is coming to these days.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
