From 2nd January 2008 to 9th January 2008 Grand Prix Circuit

I have an exam on the 8th so........I could be tempted for another round anytime after that.

Hmm, let me get this right, OPGP track EVERY DAY from 2-9 Jan? Hmm, hot or not, I'm keen. Turn the boost down and go round and round and round!

i guess its the start of new year and they have lots of days unfilled.

but call up beforehand anyway just in case.

If you go on the 2nd or the 3rd ill come and watch

you didn't need one the other day?

anyway....you need a club exec....myself, adam (abo-bob), Jess (Sinful), steve (n1gtr), Shell, Neil. If one of us is out there on the day we can sort it out. Or you will have to catch one of us beforehand

yeah i paid the extra $20 for a one day pass, but now i've sent my forms to melbounre and i have the little tear off bit on the bottom to be signed...

so whats the next day for this... i can do the 3rd and the 5th-9th...he he (just maybe not all of them...damn money for tyres and shit)

Time to get myself a stop watch

ok so i didnt go today, was too tired and last night the car gave me some greif..(just little comestic things but you know how you can get angry and all when shit messes up)

anyway i didnt hear from anyone in time to come and drive too or just event watch so when can we do this again poeple and who can make what???

i still need an admin to sign my temp cams licence please...

you didn't miss out on anything special yesterday.... there were a group of drifters there, so it was 3 sessions instead of 2 sessions... which cut the track time down heaps!

I also got there late as I chewed through one of my tyres on the way there (lucky mum came to drop me some spare tyres to the tyre shop!)

I got 4 sessions, 3 were like... one lap on, one lap cool down... one lap on one lap cool down...and the 4th was 4 laps and thanks to dave, no more overheating!!

damn it was hot out there yesterday

hey liz, so just explain the session thing to me again for your day yesterday???

are you saying you only got to do 4 sessions all day with two of those only being 2 laps in total???

when i went there on the 28th i must have had like 10-15 sessions and each one was 4 laps and a cool down lap!

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
