Quite a few of the NSW and ACT R31 faction go...

its a fun event, I went in 06, and I'll be going again this year.

About 8 31's from NSW and ACT went last year... R31's repped well but we had a fairly poor 32+ showing.

This year the Track events will be at Winton.

Agenda is as follows.

Friday Night Welcome Dinner - Venue yet to be confirmed.

Saturday Morning Registration - Function Room, Sundowner Park Lake Motel. Start 8.00 Am, Finish 10.30am.

After Registration head accross the road to show and shine and the Victoria Park Lake. Pricing same as last year. $5.00 to Park, $20.00 to Park and Judge. Lions club will be there again, and so will the merchandise stand. We need 6 people to help with registrations and organising cars for the show and shine. Cars must be parked by 11am. This event will go until 4pm.

Saturday night is your to do what you want, same as last year.

Sunday.

Winton Sprints and regularity events. Will be checking whether we can have drift. but this IS NOT likely. We will be hiring Flaggies and Marshalls, so your input is limited. Lions club will be there with the hot food again, as well as the merchandise tent.

This event is going to be very expensive to run. You will require either a CAMS L2 or a AASA Licence to compete at Winton. AASA Licences will be available on the day for weekend pass pricing. (Price to be confirmed).

To get this event paid for, we are looking for some early bird payments.

To compete at Winton,

Payment by the 31st January 2008, $135.00

Payment by the 31st March 2008, $150.00

Payment by the 15th July 2008, $165.00

Payment on the day $190.00.

There's some incentive to get in early. There will only be 60 spots for this event. All model Nissans/Datsuns are welcome.

I would definately be up for something like this if its on this year.EDIT- july

Do you need a cams license?

You need Cams for Winton for sure and the DECA motorkhana event I think you would need one.

Its only $88 for the year and you just fill out the form, but you do need to be a member of a cams affiliated club like SAU NSW :yes:

Aww thanks, I like it!

You live close and know Brad and Jeff dont you :down:

I do.I remember Brad telling me about the little damage on that rear quarter.Who would of thought someone would run into the same spot?Some people have all the luck. :D

LOL I know what you mean!

Have you gone to Skyline Nationals before or even a DECA??

No, but heard so many good things about DECA last year that I was insanely jealous and plan to go this year. I'm guessing the Nationals will be similar?

Yeah DECA is the bomb!! They do 4 a year at same complex as where the Nationals are getting held..The SAU Vics organise that ;) Im going to atleast one this year!!

Not sure what the nationals will be like but sure it will be good even if it is freezing! :)

you can also get an AASA pass for the weekend, which alot of blokes did in 2006 - I think they were around $60... might be a bit more this year, kind of pointless seeing the cost of a CAMS licence tho :)

here is a pic from the show n shine... weather was perfect.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
