Ok,

So track day is from 9am - 5pm, is that the time we need to arrive for briefing and scrutineering or the time we start on the track, hence we need to be there around 8:15-8:30am?

Could someone please confirm?

Bonks, we cruising down together as usual, and is sis coming? What time you leaving? Fred wants to cruise with us also.

Cheers,

Dan.

All,

I will ring Dave Stone tomorrow and confirm times for everything and post once I know.

What I do know is that whatever the kickoff time we all have to be there in time to complete our paperwork and have cars scrutineered, so allow half an hour for that.

People it is also important that we organise to collect the money and pay as a group to get the discount, this means find me as I will be collecting the credits. I will also collect the indemnity forms so don't hand them to the Moto people.

Most of you know me from previous track days so if you are bringing friends let them know also - if you don't know me, my car is a black GTS with sparco wheels and I am the young looking old fart - HA!

As usual scoops at the Cricketer's Arms post event.

All,

I have spoken to Motoconcepts about the time to get to the track, they suggest 0730 - 0800 so that there is time for scrutineering, completion of indemnity forms and attending the compulsory drivers briefing.

Sorry Pete the BOM forcast is for a dry day, SW/NW winds, min temp 7, max 19.

Current list of drivers is:

Full day

Silver-Arrows + 4

Julian GTS-t

Roy

XrSiSt + 2

Bonks

Zane

Majanal + 1

Matt

Total = 15

Morning

What the hell is going on. My car just sheared its rear left control arm. My car now runs 5-8 degrees positive camber.

Just spoke to my mechanic, 95% sure can get it all fixed tomorrow. Just thought i should give you people the heads up, that more bad luck tomorrow may mean i ll have no car to drive.

The car was rear ended 9 months ago, maybe that had something to do with it.

Interested to hear from guys who run Teins etc compared to my Bilsteins, whether they have had problems with bending control arms, suspension failure etc.

If this is a freak occurence, trust that it would happen to me.

G'day Simon......I had plan to pick up my brother who doesnt live with me in Birrong at 8:05am(i cant pick him up any earlier) and I'd assume we'd get there around 8:45am??

The main issue is whether or not I'll still get the group discount of $130 and if they accept cars for the track day around that time.

If they only have ONE session where they check the cars and no other.........then I suppose i'll have to change my plans.

If you like i can give my rego number to XRSIST and the payment of $130 so that im included in your list but will be just comming later.

William.

If you use the M4 it should only take you about 25 minutes so you won't be to late. No use sending money with Xrsist cos' you have to fill in forms and stuff anyway.

Xrsist,

Wasup, why arn't you happy fella?

People - does anyone know if there are others coming that I have left off the list cos' we still don't have 15 names.

    • 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...
