Congrats JET,

Can't wait to have a close look at it in person.

KEEP SAFE BUDDY!!

Seriously consider doing an advanced driving course.

We (SAU) should do one together, as a club day. It would be mad and we could learn a thing or two. My heart sinks when i hear of a skyline being involved in an accedent.

CONGRATS!!!

Can't wait to see it up close and personal.

KEEP SAFE BUDDY!

Seriously consider doing an advanced driving course. We (SAU) should do one together. Have a great day learning the limits of our babies (in jets case 1/4 of the limit will be more than enough :P) and learn a thing or two.

C ya soon!

Hey Mick, you do driving courses? or track days??

Sorry for being off topic...

I used to instruct advanced/defensive driver training courses and I used to do a hell of a lot of track days with different clubs etc.

Since I got my GTR I have done one track day at Winton too test set up and get myself used to the car. Getting a GTR fast is easy, getting it around really fast is not. My car needs new springs (on order in soon) and I need to retrain myself.

I have been speaking to a few guys I know who used to instruct with me or with other groups and we may get back into it soon.

Mick.

I have not done it but a few of the old crew like the John Bowe courses. Drive safe used to run a very nice course and I'll speak to a mate of mine regards Mircots now days. Used to be the best but they did loose a lot of really good personal. I think there is a real skyline freak there though now days which is always a bonus if someone is really interested in your cars.

If we ever get off our asses and start running courses again I will post it here. In the mean time do them all. With 400 rwkw no BS you need to really learn how to pedal it. That things is a serious tree hugger. You should be looking to build up and do motor sprot courses and get a Cams licence. The more time you put in on the track the better off you will be. If you get a track day that you can have passangers give me a yell. I'll meet you there and show you around.

Mick.

Calder Park.

Last friday of every month. You can do a few laps, just let the pass cars get about 3/4 of a lap in fron of you.

Problem is that you only get 3-4 laps, other slower cars are on the track and you catch up quick, real quick. But still fun.

Haven't been for a few months myself.

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
