15-Mar-2008 $160.00 AUTOsports @ Wakefield Wakefield Park Raceway

I'd be keen to just pick the auto sports day in the future and book into that if I continue to have no success. Yes we could make maybe $2000 for the club if we ran it ourselves, but there's also the $500 loss possibility.

Hi everyone.

I'm Niko and I'm the vice president of the ACT Supra Club.

John has been keeping us updated on sf.com.au regarding this track day, so I thought I'd come on here and introduce myself.

The ACT Supra Club started last year in July with hopes of attracting 15 to 20 members. We have now just ticked over 30 members so things are progressing better than expected. Along with a few memebrs of the NSWSC that actually take their car to the track, I'm sure that we can contribute to the numbers required.

We have generated some interest on our forum regarding this event. A lot of our members are young but they are very keen to have a go at the track. I'm sure that more interest would be created once a date is set.

I mean more Supra drivers are sure to come just to shut you Skyline owners up :)

We are keen to get this up and running so let us know if we can help.

Welcome :banana:

Thats excellent Niko :D I think we can make a fun day out of this. How do your members feel if its a few more dollars but less cars i.e. more time on the track?

Haha... Nice...

Like we always say... The lack of 4WD and extra lag is just a courteous head start :D You think we are in your rear view mirror and then you realise we've overtaken and pulling away. It must be nice to have that 4WD 'training wheels' system though. :banana:

Open wheelers cant run with sedans... Its a saftey thing for us open Wheelers the big heavey fat sedan drivers tend not to see us going past them and run us down. Not nice having 1400kg on top of a 600kg or less openwheeler.

HAHAHAHAHA, If you need help beating a GTR, i will turn off my 4wd for you and with my rb26 starting to come on boost at 5.5 (10 psi) and on hard by 6 i am sure i will be just as laggy as you. (if not your turbo is just to big :banana: and you will flog us on the dyno day....) lol.

I want to go up agianst supras soooo Bad... I love them, hmmmm 2jz.

hahaha! gotta love the rivalry already! training wheels... love it!!! :laughing-smiley-014:

perhaps we should all make a payment of $165 to a trustworthy person, and get them to make a booking with payment on a friday later in the year, say in August or something similar, that way, we have our day booked, people have a crap load of time to get time off work and we've already paid for it. just a thought.....

I know a couple of these supra people, dyno we are going to lose, but at least one of these high horsepower supras cant drive it for shit and I mean FOR SHIT!! *cough* Danny *cough*

And ive heard a few stories, so it will be a different kettle on the track.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
