Steveo, as per our discussion in the middle of the night last friday!!

Am i taking your spot for Dave or completing a new one??? Needs to know so I can pay whoever and do the form!!

Yes you're taking mine :P

Yes you're taking mine ;)

ah okies... send me your bank details then puhlease... can't find em :)

Il get Dave to do the form this weekend..... still no idea which car!! Thinking mine though.... he's much funnier to watch in rwd mode :(

there's a great photo from 12 months ago of turismo's starlet going over that with 4 wheels off the ground ;)
Post up that picture!

Yeah, I never saw that photo, pic or ban :laugh:

farrkkk, how fast was he going?

110ish maybe quicker, didn't really look down, to busy concentrating on flight

thought of another noobie question....

is there a provision to change tyres from the rims down there coz i got some shitty rears in my garage with about 20-30% tread left on them and just incase i happen to get the ones currently on my car down to mettal, would i be able tochange the tyres without having to somehow bring the rims aswell???? if not the dosnt matter i'll just keep the smokeing to a minimum...

Nope, there's no tyre changing facilities down there unfortunately, unless you go to a wheel and tyre shop down there, and I doubt there'd be much open on a Sunday afternoon...

We want to avoid any unintentional skidding or spinning, and we're not allowing drifting or burnouts due to the rules of the facility itself, and we don't want another visit from the EPA for noise pollution either...

so does that mean the skid pan is going to be wet? coz if its dry my tyres will shred like no tomorrow and there will be heaps of noise...... and why does epa care? looking on google earth there doesnt seem to be any houses very near.....???

ps: id rather a wet skid pan anyway

Hey guys, just wondering how many spots are still available? I'm hoping to put the engine back into my GTR this weekend and would love to take it for a thrash if there are still spots available. It would be my first SAU event so it all sounds like awesome fun

There are still spots available :)

epa cares as theres a guy with a noise meter across the valley who rings them up as soon as it goes 1 db over the limit, and it will be the wet skidpan.

What a tosser... who doesnt like the sound of a car revving off its guts :)

Dang.. that was a quick responce boys!.. :laugh:

Thanks for the help..

Ill be confirming or not within the next few days..

And whats the CHEAPEST form accomodation that is NOT sleeping in the car.. Fixed back buckets are not comfortable to sleep in..

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
