IN! :santa:

You guys are legends!! Lakeside is the perfect track to be flogging aound in a Skyline. Tell your mates, we need all the help the SAU can provide. Clubs from other Nissan models have also been really supportive and see benefits of claiming their northside track back.

QLD SAUers are a bunch of carpark cruisers.

all the photoshoot, coffee meet ups, dyno day events/threads gets loads of attendance/response/views, but to save a historic race track gets next to nothing.

it's the same group time and time again attending the QR time attack events, skidpans, street sprints, and what not.

where have all the 300rwkw, hks hypermax, gt wing, light weight volk racers gone?

i'll make my best attempts to be there work pending!

I will be there!!!

No need to point fingers Eug, you don't get to all the events either, but I understand the sentiment.

true, not saying everyone should attend every event.

any sort of reasonably half arsed effort from each member should get the ball rolling for the club in terms of moving on to bigger and better things.

just trying to gee these ricers up, that's all :santa:

they probably won't even bother clicking this thread to read it anyway.

I understand your frustrations, there's always a lot of apathy in all motorsport groups and that's one of the reasons we're so easily defeated by small groups of politically correct nut jobs imposing their lifestyle preferences on others. You'll never get everyone, but we have to get all the hardcore guys to attend.

However, one way to get people to get off the couch is to show them the benefits to them of taking action.

50% of the conversations on forums is people complaining about something and on car club forums, its usually about getting fined for speeding, defect notices or general police harrassment.

A dedicated facility such as a race track provides instant protection for enthusiasts from all these problems plus actually making the activities safer for themselves, the public and even their cars! NO gum trees to hit on the side of a race track.

If Lakeside was to get re-opened, maybe it could become a safe, harrassment-free location for all the "carpark cruisers" to meet!

Finally I think your point about most peopl not even reading the post is correct, just look at the thread numbers. So, you could engage in conversation with people you know in other forums and talk to them directly about Lakeside or give out some links to the thread. Just a thought.

Lakeside rocks compared to that boring arse QR. A far more technical track with the most wicked entry on to the main straight and a great selection of corners including some neg camber stuff.

The only thing it has in common with QR is the little series of unsettling bumps at the end of the main straight.

Like you Eug I struggle to understand what motivates the 5 kay back and shuffle crowd. (They drive 5 kays, back up and shuffle around) but in the end its their ride and they can do what they want with it. Why you would need big ponys for that tho is beyond me unless, heaven forbid....They are street racing. :laughing-smiley-014: Nah, Liners wouldnt do that. :P

agree with technicality of the track. i've never raced it, but i like the fact that it's a high speed track, and like you said with the off camber corners and varied elevation. definitely looks like it requires a bit more driver input and concentration than QR = fun!

personally think that QR is a fairly HP dependent track, where time is easily made by making more power.

i have 300rwkw... i'm cool yeah?*

i might use this track. but its a fair way away. but still im here to support.

sweet!

QR is the only track around. darlington park has been shut down, and the next one is morgan park (in warwick!)

*may or may not be true... most likely the later.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
