Why the rule banning Porsches from ClubSprint class ? Is the event going to be predominantly Japanese vehicles or are other Australian/Eurp marques encouraged to enter. I see some BMWs are in the mix

We would like to see it mainly Japanese vehicles which is the reason for the no rear 6 Cylinder or above rule to rule out the millions of porsches which would take over the event. A good point has been raised by a few people about ferraris and lambo's being able to enter. I am fine with that mainly because I can count on 1 hand how many lambo's and Ferrari's will enter whereas I would not be able to count with both hands how many porsches we would end up with. We will see a few Holdens and fords and some Euros in there to mix things up and keep you Jap racers honest :(

So rally rego is OK for Street Car Class?

Cheers

The vehicle must have legal registration papers for the state it is registered in. Remembering though all vehicles in Clubsprint Class MUST have a Catalytic Conveter and a FULL interior.

I also have an RX2 Nc historic racer, will it be eligable for the street class?

Only if the car is registered and has a full interior.

Help me!!! is there a class that my car will qualify for?

Its from a major manufacturer (its a March), its mid mount, engine is stock.

Can I come? purty please? Oh bugger! I'm pretty sure my tyres are R compound :down:

Unfortunately Open Wheelers are not allowed to enter.

haha yeah we all know what ferraris and lambos are used for don't we. Wonder if any ferrari or lambo owners will ahve the balls to take their car out for a few laps.

A bit of mix wouldn't hurt, hope some euro cars turn up.

Are you sure the R35 GTRs in the Clubsprint class will have rego by the time the event rolls around?

And personally i wouldnt be too worried about Porsches dominating the event. I mean, they are more of a risk in the Open Class then the Clubsprint. My little GTSt is quicker then just about any 993 RSCS or 997 GT3s that i have been on the track with. And the Boxster S which in std form is a pretty good damn thing is not actually rear engined. So if you may want to tweak that rule to stop Boxster/Caymans with twin tubos setups from rocking up and giving a lot of cars some hurry up

So does that mean we carnt use the Kumho V70A's?

And we can use the Federal 595RS's as they have a 180AAA rating?

The Kumho V70A has a UTQG Rating of 50 so is not useable for Clubsprint entrants. But the Federal 595RS's are 180 so they are fine.

damn i built my car specifically for these kinds of events but i got a 30/25. I think this has actually worked against me. My car is 100% a daily driven street legal car but the engine puts me into the open class which is full of hardcore track vehicles. The fact i need to use my car as a daily driver and its completely financed by one 22 year old means i'll be completely out of place competing in the same category.

Mine is much the same mate, and is financed by a 23 year old :D I'll be entering open class. I'd have a zero chance of winning, but hey, it'll be fun!

Guys i spoke to nathan for a while yesterday, i mentioned to him the position the rules put cars like mine (and a few of you others) into. He said that there's most likely going to be another class opened up soon but not for this first event

So im going to this first event to help boost numbers, have a fun day out, thrash the car - and meet some of the other tough GTR owners from around the place

Next time we (RB30 crew) can have a good shot :D

Exactly the same here, 23 too. This year will just be having fun and getting experience, then when money isn't so hard to come by I'll field a much more competitive car!

Agreed!

Worst case we have our own 23 year old battle... SR22 vs RB25/30's :D

SR22 vs RB2530 vs RB2630

Lets have it anyway! $20 in the pot, winner (regardless of class) takes the whole pot

dam you all you young wipper snappers :P (26 'ere...)

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
