Hey guys,

Ive been asked by the WRX Club to see if there is anyone who might be able to assisst as back-up recovery for the next track day at Phillip Island on Sat March 31.

Stephen Dean has already kindly offered his services for the day, but in case there are multiple incidences they are hoping to have a second car there on the day.

Its such a big track and in the spirit of giving drivers as much time driving as possible, they are looking for help with this one.

Anyone who might be able to help out, can you post here, or email Lyn at [email protected]

Also, if anyone else wants to assisst with flagging, etc on the day - please email Lyn as above.

Thanks guys and girls,

:(

You'll be provided with a handy Russian recovery vehicle with lights and stickers too.

B - I'll be there for this, with both cars - so will help instruct volunteers as well as cheat.

Essentially you park just off the track behind the barriers at a convenient location (if we can get three vehicles then it would most likely be pit exit, Honda and Hayshed) and if you are lucky, the most you will have to do is pickup and deliver the flaggies/equipment during the day. What normally happens is that if a car goes off or stops for any reason, then they are towed by one of the recovery vehicles either back on to the track if they can recover to the pits under their own power, or are towed back to the pits if they can't.

I'll be there with the Navara, but I'd be lucky to break three minutes around the track in it, so having a few extra helpers would be very good.

Want to get close to the track?

Want to get great views?

Want to be right there amoungst the action?

If you answered YES to any of the above, then you want to help out with flagging on the 31st. :happy:

If you are interested in helping out, please email Lyn at [email protected]

:cheers:

How are you getting both cars down to the island James?

Do you need a second driver?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
