Hey guys,

Just thought i would give out some information on getting yourself a "Competition License" so you can compete in up coming events be it AHG, Wanneroo or a whole bunch of other events.

You will need one of 2 licenses. The CAMS License covers basically all events and venues in Perth (some exceptions of course). The the option is the AASA license which covers all events at AHG Driving Centre.

To get a CAMS License you need to be a member of a CAMS affiliated Club (SAUWA is not CAMS Affiliated) however there is several Perth clubs that are. All Fours and Rotaries, WASCC or even No Limit Events (Conditions apply with No Limits Events). Cost of the CAMS License is $88 per year, plus you car club membership. This is a very handy license to have if you want to do several forms of events. If you need any further info on this, check out CAMS website:

http://www.cams.com.au

Option 2 is the very cost effective AASA (Australian Auto Sport Alliance) license. THIS LICENSE IS ONLY USEABLE ON LIMITED EVENTS! This license is useable for all AHG/MC Motorsport events. Weather it be an MC Motorsport Autotest, or Sprint Series, or even a Club event, this license is permitted. The cost of this license is $50 per year. This gives excellent value for the occasional race at AHG. All our SAUWA Timed events will require this license at a minimum! If you need more details about this, check their website:

I hope this infomation helps you out. SAUWA Is planning timed events for members in the new year so we suggest that you organise your license soon. All events are offered to members only...so if your not a member and want to race your Skyline against other Skylines, sign up now :)

Cheers

Brad

As said you need to be a member of an affiliated car club to get a CAMS license. The WASCC is particularly good value for money if you enjoy your motorsport. You get:

1. Access to all the events held there, which include the V8 (all days), truck races, drift events plus all the local stuff.

2. A voucher for a practice day where you get to do as many laps of the track as you can manage/be bothered.

3. Quarterly mag.

4. Plus loads of other stuff as per the www.wascc.com.au website.

Yes it is more expensive than some other affiliated clubs but there again you get much more value for your dollar. Hell if you take out the cost of just attending the V8 race for Sunday alone (With, say a pit pass) it is nearly half paid for.

I think AFARCC is the most cost effective way to join a CAMS Affiliated Club, but in order to join you will need to attend one of there monthly meetings.

No Limits is a good option too, but in order to join you need to participate in one of there events.

Just to clarify that a touch, you dont get free entry to ALL events at Waneroo raceway with WASCC membership.

Private events, such as NO LIMITS for example are not covered as its not a WASCC Event. However, it is still an excellent club at an excellent price if you attend enough events, plus you get the practise days quite cheap.

Yeah sorry - I should have been more clear. Something like free spectator entry to all WASCC events or similar. Private stuff is perhaps a different matter, but then again I have never been asked to pay for turning up to watch so I dunno.

In any case it covers the most expensive/interesting ones.

Actually while we are in the business of clarification the WASCC memberships are for the calender year, not from the date of application. So paying your subscription now will get you all of 2008 not from November 2007 to November 2008.

Cost is $220 for a silver membership, but you can also nominate an associate member for $165 (basically a season pass) Junior memberships are $60.

I sure hope that was the long track :huh:

Lots of Skylines at the No Limits Events, and I'm hoping to compete in some of the Speed Event Series next year.

i think i might just joint you paul, once the car is back up and running and very interested in hitting the track as much as i can

so brad is sauwa planning on holding events where a cams will be required or are we going to do mainly stuff at ahg my aasa is up in feb i think and interested in what i should get

cant really see me doing much at barbagello yet all im hoping for is mabe afew rounds of the sprint at ahg and another fun year of autotest along with whatever motorsport the club has

Gavin we would love to run our own events at Barbagallo, Jacks hill etc but we need more licensed drivers. I think for the short term future, our main events will be held at AHG on either skid pans, or circuit. I only plan to renew my AASA license.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
