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.

I know of atleast one who would bring a Lambo. Gallardo for Open Class but at the moment he is bringing an Evo as I said no to the Lambo at first haha.

haa haha, would be cool to see how it goes on the track.

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

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!

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...)

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
