Ok time to ramp this up people. We need:

A) Excitement.

B) More entrants.

Can you all please tell all the people who you know like track or could be interested in it as we need more entrants to make this financially viable. If you are a keen and helpful club member put it in your signature and let's get this show on the road!!

Hey Mate. As long as it passes scruiteenering it's all good.

Sorry to sound like a ninny, but, what do they look for in scrutineering? my car is completely stripped out with just a seat, dash cluster, harness and fire extinguisher. will this pass?

It's basically eveything has to be secure in engine bay and inside the car, no lose articles in the car and no fluid leaks..

What have you used the car for in the past?? sound tuff if all stripped out :D

Evil weevil and DIF will be able to clarify anything else

mmmk,

basically has to road worthy.

inside...

seat is secure

no loose objects

harness in date (if using) otherwise seatbelt in good condition

brake pedal feels good (pressure)

firewalls are closed

boot is cleared and empty

engine bay...

no leaks

battery clamped well and tight

tyres in good condition

ADR approved helmet in good nick

lng sleeved clothing

thats basically it

usuall things that get checked

*Your brakelights need to work and if it's raining, your windscreen wipers need to work.

*Your car cannot have any fluid leaks at all.

*seatbelts in good cond

*brake pedal feels solid

*engine bay in good cond/everythiung secure

*tyres can't be bald

*make sure there is nothing loose in the car (boot/cabin)

*remove your space saver on the day (make sure it's still in the car on the way there.. you may need it :( )

Sounds like your car would be fine to pass though. Chris (Evil_Weevil and D_I_F will be doing the scrscruteneer checks on the day, so shoot one of them a PM or they can answer in here if they see this :D

Do you have any major exhaust mods, or do you have battery/oil/fuel relocated ?? this obviously needs to be done properly and enclosed where needed etc..

Its a 31 2door that i bought earilier this year to turn into a race/drift car, and this will be its first run (and mine :) ) on a track. I just wanted get it on the track to see what it really needs and not what i think it needs.

Orsm, thanks for the quick replies guys.

What about exhaust mods like this?? Done by yours truly but very tidy and very very secure... Just not RTA or EPA compliant...

That's fine. as long as the tape is heat resistant and it's all secured.

I'd need Chris to give the final answer, but i'd say that wouldnt be an issue.

Ahem! What am I, chop liver?

If you need the numbers to be viable... let Neil and I know and we can bring in the open wheelers :P:blink:

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
