just want to know, would u have to drive ur own car or is a test car suppled?

also what do u get out of it? eg like certificate's?, more demerit points on ur licence?, cheaper car insurance? etc..

cheers

bill

you have to drive your own car i believe

what you get out of it is basically you learn how to control and drive your car in a way that you have total control of it (i believe thats more or less the goal for the day)

as for demerit points and cheaper car insurance, dont think that is the case

Saturday is going to be 35 :D

anything to specifically look at/check/take care of with the car before going through a whole driving day in that heat?

Advanced Driving Course is not very hard on your car, just a normal check over is fine.

Typical Melbourne - wouldnt worry about the heat anymore

Have fun tomorrow guys - im sure itll be a blast :huh:

wet track, should be fun :D

are we cruising to this thing, or we just making our own ways there?

EDIT: i just rang Shannons, shannonites should be getting full cover for the day! As it's not time trial related, not CAMS related, doesn't require special license, qualified instructors will be there and it's purely about increasing ones skills in relation to controlling a car.

Pg.30 of some booklet shannon's people will find the info

cheers :D

    • How many of you guys run the synchro os giken set and at what power? Do you then also use the billet plate?  How is it launching with it, any dragy times from 0-60? 60ft?
    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
