I like how a combination of tracks can be used at anyone time - except the international of course.

Though I don't like how the drift bowl will be part of the international track...........

Drifting by nature, tends to ruin the surface, especially when they drag all the dirt onto the track. Else I like.

That is one of the nicest, most balanced and ingenious layouts of any track...

Would've like to have seen a tighter last corner, aside from that though, looks really technical, and the long main and back straights allow for great passing spots! :P

Send THAT BLOKE TO BARBAGALLOS!!!! :P

"John Cotter, the President of the ARDC, announced that the master plan would be a way to cover for the impending closure of Oran Park, as well as provide world-class facilities to hold world class events, such as Japanese Super GT, FIA GT World Championship and GP2 Asia."

Super GT....super!

Actually, to me, it looks overly tight with only one potential overtaking place. Loads of mickey mouse stuff & only one even remotely high speed corner in sight. :P To be a good circuit it needs a couple things - namely elevation change combined with high speed turns.

On the upside it looks to have flexible layouts. Does anyone see the resemblance of the National Track to AIR? They have packed alot of tarmac into a small space - maybe too much?

Hopefully there will be something in it for the paying spectator, not just the bloody corporates.

So please keep this sort of thing away from Wanneroo.

yeah I'm a bit of a sceptic too. and it's as shame where we once had a nice, fast, open turn 1 we'll now have a hairpin instead. d'oh.

there are a lot of positives though. :P and it does make good use of the space.

my only other gripe is the drift track should be seperate from the main circuit and they should build another, BIG skid pan and actually let clubs use it for khana events and even drift practice etc.

Looks fun.......but!!!!

I'm with djr81. It also doesn't look like it has the same high speed flowing as the current layout.

No more high speed turn one!......I'll miss her :google:

Drift track defiantly needs to be bigger and separate to the main circuit.

Personally i don't like it and I definatley don't like the implications of making it happen. The current track is great as it is,,,there's plenty of overtaking spots unlike most other tracks in skippy land.

My only bug-bear with the current setup is you can't see shit as a spectator.

Why not bulldoze coporate hill and turn 2's hill flat,,,build some simple covered grandstands and heaps of stepped seating like next door.

Neil.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
