Improved Production Nationals 29-30sept


Recommended Posts

The Improved Production Nationals are on at Morgan Park Warwick next weekend. Included in some of the high quality cars coming up from down south are at least two of the best GTRs running around. One driven by Dave Loftus and the other by John Boston. They're extremely well built cars and definitely worth coming to see. I'll be there on Sunday to see if my mate's track record gets done by the interstate GTRs!

So if you want to see 2 or 3 GTRs out the front of a field again like the good old days of Group A racing and this pic from the last NSW IPRA round get out to Warwick and check it out!

warwick is about 2hrs roughly from brissy. Funny cause the qr state champs are on also at qr same date. I would love to go and see the gtrs race, hopefully someone will get some video footage.

I dont know how to get there, But im keen as... is that the warick like 130kms past ipswich?

that's right. its about a 2hr drive from brisbane. Just keep going on the highway past QR/Willowbank and that will take you straight into Warwick. There are permanent big Green signs on the roadside directing you to Morgan Park Raceway - you go through Warwick and pretty much out the other side of the town towards Stanthorpe before you see the sign directing you to Morgan Park

I can't find any info on gate costs or a race program, but from experience, qualifying will be on Saturday morning and most of the races including the final will be on Sunday. They're running a Top 10 shootout on Saturday afternoon for the Top 10 in both over and under 2L classes, so that might be worth watching too. I'd expect gate cost to be about $30? I'll see if I can find out more.

The QLD IPRA Nationals page doesn't have much info at all...

Road Trip!!!!!

I'd be up for that. I'll be heading out there on the Sunday if anyone want to meet up for the drive?

I've only got a diesel Patrol at the moment though, so you might have to wait for me to catch up after Cunningham's Gap! :lol actually, I'm not joking - it ain't fast up hills... but I'm negotiating with a guy about a Skyline in Melbourne at the moment though, and there's a slight possibility it might be here in time if all goes well :D

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
