Which day for the track day? No dates yet. Tickets would be around the 150 to 155 mark with these numbers.

It seems like the NSW vs VIC track day went well why dont we take on anther forum?

Like a supra forum?

its just a thought and could be quite interesting to see how the supras come up agains the skylines.

Prices would be around the $150 to $155 mark with the numbers listed in the pole.

Vote for more that one option if it suits you!

Any comments?

Cheers,

Keith

I might give wakefield a call and see how much it would cost us to get the day timed.

Or do we think it would be better not timed?

I know we have to pay for other things aswell when we get it timed.

for timed days you'll end up paying around 155 each i think.

Thats the normal entry, plus the hire and use of the timing gear

I was thinking about buying a laptop and some timing gear (just basic stuff but would be plenty good enough) and I would be happy to lend it out, pending I get it buy then

Just attended the Ferrari track day with timing and it was a well run event. I did invite anyone but no one showed any interest.

Cost was 150 members or 175 non members. To break even they said they needed about 40 entrants. I had no problems with cars slowing me up and everyone was very considerate of each other.

This was run with Wakefield licences so possibly only with Wakefield insurance.

Just getting 20 people from the skyline group would be very hard. We were lucky to get 10 at the dyno day prepaid (thanks to Frink). We ended up with 18 people in the end, but the majority were not skylines.

^^ yeah mate new about this one. Engine is still in the build, another few weeks and i shall be running her in :)

Regards to the timming gear and laptop, that would be sweet. And i am sure we could all swing a little money for the loan of it.

i would've loved to have gone! i wish i'd had known about it. i dont have the net at home, so i can only check the forums at work... :P

i'd be happy to pay that kind of cost. but its something that i think needs a date sometime into future, like Feb or March. you cant organise these events on short notice. also may be a good idea to invite some of the SAU NSW people to make up numbers....

Well I found out about it the day I posted. I was a guest and seeing as I had nothing to do with the running or organising and did not know what the day would be like, I was not going to make it a big thing and gets lot of people attending due to this.

I hope I made a good impression for next time and I've asked to be on the invite list for next time.

Hey Frink, can you PM me some info on some street legal track tyres for the standard GTR rims, and what PSI to use around the track. I was more worried about wearing through the sidewalls than the tread at 34psi.

Sounds like the way to go,

Got onto wakefield, we cant get timed unless we book the track.

But i agree we need to set this one a few months after christmas so we can get good numbers from both the supra club and us.

PS, how many cars would it time???

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
