Some old fella timed one lap of the white R33 with no wing, sorry to the owner dont know who it is. Licence plate starts with BBR

He pulled a 1:09 on that lap. And pretty much from watching his car in group four while it was still out there in the morning, must have been the quickest car and probably bettered that 1:09 at some stage.

Good to see everyone had fun, wouldn't a cold day have been better for the car? Greg congrats on the fast times mate, sounds like you beat Chubbs :D Everyone else who knows me, I hope to see you all again soon with the new car :rofl:

Haha i wish! But no instead of a good time i managed to massacre my turbo

hahaha

go team redbull!!!

man we had a bit of beer at Mikes before the club

Car looks clean at the end Spanna!

p.s. I wants 4.5 neg camber like you!!

Yeah those beers were only in an hour or so too!!

Then you need to speak to "teh mechanic" if you wants the camber :D

Anna, What brakes are they on the fronts? they are fooking massive.

Yeah they are massive !! ... Alcon K type Nascar calipers ... rotors are Alcon 355 x 32mm... just finding/ordering the matching rears now... the standard size rears look pitiful atm!

Haha i wish! But no instead of a good time i managed to massacre my turbo

Oh no! :D That's no good mate! Going for the same turbo again? Are you still on the Thursday night cruises btw Greg? I should have the new car on the road in about 3-4 weeks and it'd be good to see you guys again.

Hey Anna, how much did you pay for those brakes? They look like a good investment.

Anna, UAS have the 4 piston ALCON kit with 335MM rotors. But its ~3500.

cool, thats what I need for the rears.... they are different to my fronts... although I wont be buying new, can basically half that cost by buying second hand calipers and getting hats made for the rotors :rofl:

Need to look in the right places for the "k" types... ie racing circles.... :D

sounds like a top day. :rofl: really sorry I couldn't make it down there. :D

Thanks to the organisers, I'm so glad we have people in our club giving their time to make these events happen. well done. :P

also, well done to all those who got out there and had some fun. I'm very impressed by all the times I've seen posted so far. so many guys in the teens which is really moving in a road car around wakefield. well done! you should all be proud.

What a fantastic day!! Well done to all organisers and volunteers :P

I had a great day and the car has held up well, I loved my new paint job, the "mud look" and I was the same as you Anna, I had mud everywhere from my EPIC FAIL off the fish hook on my first session. It took me two goes to wash it off and was coming off in chunks under the car so I was going around most of the day with extra weight :laugh:

I learnt some new lines and was rocketing over some of those MASSIVE ripple strips up the top. I reckon I was airborne at least once :laugh:

Had the best fun and was good to see everyone :laugh:

I wouldn't have a clue what times I was doing but that's the quickest I have ever gone around wakie so far so hope I have cracked the 1:10's :P

Cant wait to see the pictures!

Was nice meeting you Luke!

Aww I did admire your car as I was going past :P I wanted to see what Wakie was like on and off the track, I paid for it tho with loads of cleaning after and I am pretty sore :laughing-smiley-014:

Had a great day with plenty of track time. Ended up using a whole tank of fuel, which is quite an effort in my car.

Thanks to the organisers for a well run event even though Corinne did tease my SR20 :laugh: .

We should try and do this more often.

Short day for me as tow car Commy did alternator in the morning and then battery change at servo along the way, long story, delayed getting there until after 2pm. Huge bunch of Skylines though and great to see. Not ideal conditions being so cold, not so good for grip plus dirt on the track from everyone gong off including me which is rare. Best time I did was 1 5.49 which was PB by 3 tenths.

Well done to Neil and Duncan and everyone for your efforts. :laugh:

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
