The winners of each class, and the place holders, will be presented trophies at the end of the year.

Thanks Noel. Are you in for the day ?

We need some more guys from the Skyline camp to even the battle. So far I have 9 EVO's booked in and only 3 GTR's. Hopefully over the next week or so the numbers even up.

yeah booked the time from work Paul, Hook me up for a morning shot please bud. :P

Sounds like a plan. The EVO count keeps going up, those guys want to dominate the AWD class.

I am also going to run Motorkahna at the Feb 5 track day. I have converted my electronic timing system from lap timing to khanna timing.

I have a beam for the start, and another for the end. Timing at 1/1000 of a sec. Plus my big electronic sign will show the elapsed time live to the crowd.

  • 2 weeks later...

damn straight! lol :banana:

I am after the dude that was sat on the back straight early in the morning session. got me having a big backwards moment ploughing the fields into turn 3!!!

;)

Fantastic Day.

the track is looking very green. Makes a nice change to the usual brown up there (keep in mind i'm only going from TV and pics haven't been up there .....yet)

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
