Albert,,,it's all cool mate,,,I'm thinking you are talking about the visor ,in a car with windows and a roof it doesn't matter.

You can do the hell what ever you like with the visor.Use it,,,don't use it whatever.

Help is only a question away and please ask.

cool. so do we have to have "hans" devices?

and do we all have to have our sump plug and gearbox plugs lock wired?

what about the fire extingisher? its usaly just tek screwed in, is this ok?

and since our cars are all rated to over 2.5litres (turbo multiplier) do we have to have 3 litre catch cans?

also do we have to remove all window tint?

will we be black flagged for not running valve caps on our tyres?

do we have to drain our coolant and refil with a non glycol based inhibiter?

do we need window nets?

and if we have a harness does it have to be in date?

are secondary bonnet locks needed?

what about anti shatter adhesive covers to glass light lenses?

do we need a cams approved tail shaft loop?

lets be seriouse here lol.

things like floor mats, spare tyre( held in with bolts, and passed adr crash tests..) fine. no major oil leaks and nothing baulky loose in the cabin. thats about it. just common sence.

suction cuped electronics are allowed. your waring a helmet so what can it do to you......lets not be assholes like a phillip island..

its not a full on cams target scrutineering sesson peeps.

its turn up, get all the loose shit out of the car, on with your helmet and away you go. if we are going to be full on captain cams, (confederation against motor sport) then all the items i listed above need to be implemented, and some. or its just a half assed crock.. lol :P

lets just be realistic here.. cheeres :P

Wakefield are now even selling in car cameras... have a look when you sign up, they're on the shelf next to the helmets. My suction one is also rated to 150mph and has passed CAMS scrutineering in the past, but its up to the Chief Steward to make the final decision either way, so can change accordingly at their discretion.

Cool I havent seen there cameras,I will check them out cause looking for one to go in my car :(

I took my visor off Albert found it got in the way at times. Like the others said you dont need it down in the car..I put it back on the helmet when I go karting :P

I do find sunglasses help loads when the sun comes out on the track, can get a bit glary...but it's all personal preference..

Is there going to be shirts for this track day?? Like last time?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
