need to be there by like 8.30am

am pretty sure its a 1.5 hr drive - so i plan on leaving home about 7ish

*fingers crossed* it gets me there in time :D

there is also a group of officials leaving the Village Green at 7am

Damn, that was seriously cold and wet!

Didn't get to take many pics due to being reasonably busy with flagging. Here's the pics I did take. Apologies to the drivers that my camera auto flashed :):banana:

this was a test to see how long the cam took to take a pic... at least there isn't a blurry car in it

Note to self: Get a new camera... that's not crap

Good day though, especially the free lunch :) Noting too exciting near my corner which is a good thing for the cars, just a couple of geese that got too close to the track :O

Aaron did a 1:44.8.. :worship:

That is all....

Aaron is BACK!!! Yeahhhh damn that's impressive.

I wanted to be there, but had last minute f*ck up with my car.... I'm going to get down there for the PIARC weekend

Was a great day, Just glad my car kept on keeping on without too many hiccups... It was dissapointing some of the other datsuns didn't get through scrutineering considering they had both raced before with the same setup, but what can you do..

I don't suppose anyone has any pics of the datsuns?

I think i saw someone with a camera on turn 2 in the wet, and i'd love to see the photos :worship:

Yeah i had a good day as well, only got in the practice and one session before the rain though. While i'm on that... what the hell happened with the day? gates opened around eight and drivers briefing still going at 10:30? plenty more session could have come before the rain if things were running on time!

That aside i benefitted from some bigger wheels/ tyres and some new front suspension and brakes. it was great to be able to pull up with ease, one extra vote for the QFM A1RM pads :worship:

How would i go about joining the PIARC day in about a month?

It was a good weekend. as good as it can be when you arent driving. not a very big skyline crowd down there for some reason.

As for the track day itself, unless there is some unknow hiccups behind the scene, it was average... Cars were not on track until 11ish!!! the porsche club were there today and they were on track at about 9am....

I don't suppose anyone has any pics of the datsuns?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
