Posted this in a new thread since I can't edit the old one.

Ok Gave hume a call. I reckon probably the best time to Book is:

29th June Sunday or 6th July Sunday some time.

Cheapest way to do it is to book the whole track out for an hour. Cost is 540$ So if we get 10 people it's 54$ each

Maximum of 10 karts in one race. If we get more than 10 people wanting in, could probably work something out, but would probably need some like 16-20 people, and then we'd book it out for two hours.

Format would be : 3 x 15 minute races or 4 x 10 minutes races. (plenty to tire you out lol).

If people are in on this, please advise what days you can make it or not. If we get 8 or 10 will book this in. Booking the track exclusively for an hour is the cheapest, means only us are on it too. Hume also has a BBQ etc to use.

Yes for 2 either date currently.

Can you check the format. 4 x 10min = 40 mins allowing for breaks we should be able to get 5x10min in I think.

Comparing to normal prices of $45 for 3 x 10 min and we don't need to have any specific numbers, which is the better deal?

You can try but trust me I think after the 4th race you'll be pretty knackered.

Checked the format on the phone. I think other wise, each 10min race is charged at 17$ so thats 68$ for 4 races compared to 54$ if we get 10 people. A 5 minute break between each race isn't too much anyway.

Can have a look of doing it individually, but it is around 17$ for a 10 min race, or a bit more for a 15 minute race.

I agree that after 3 or 4 races the arms are very tired. If you ask the guys how much 30 mins is (3*10 min races) you will find it is a LOT cheaper than the 10 min race by its self.

This way we don't need 10 people and we don't need a set time.

The price for 3*10 mins sessions is only like $40 but you can get caught up with slower people or real arseholes if you don't hire it out

Ok Unless I cant count looks like 7 people have said yes so far. Will give it a day or two before I decide to book in, looks like 29th of June.

Also just to cover myself, need to tell you guys you will need to sign a disclaimer form, just incase something happens as usual, you will also either need to bring a helmet or use one there.

Probably a bit too late to book in an hour now, this thing slipped my mind, bit short of 10 people too, but happy to turn up sunday arvo to have a go just booking in individiually, or reschedule to some other time.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
