some advice

- how is the event advertised?

- has it been offered to other car clubs?

- if you arent on the forums how would u know about this event?

- are there any incentives for previous guys who attended the last texikhana - ie : discount etc?

- have you got any sponsors to help cover costs?

- be careful and ensure posts come across as constructive and not immature - i can see heaps of silly posts in this thread, which likely place doubt and 'uncertainty' for those considering the event

- what documentation / information is available for those who might be interested in attending?

hi guys!

i was an early interest-expressor; and had a ball at the last one. BUT

haven't driven the car for 2 months after some problems. i am about to fire up the motor which should be fine but i am still uncertain about the gearbox... anyway i havent paid because i dont know if i can get there yet obviously. I will hopefully be able to confirm on or before friday to make it easier for you, but if i get home and its dark i cant do much basically.

hope to see you all there for another great event!

- yes, unofficially

- you wouldn't, you also wouldn't know about the car club itself. Although we do have a few ways of advertising to non forum members (word of mouth mainly and things like business cards)

- I believe people who helped last time get a discount.

- Not sure (and exec may be able to help with this). Although most would argue that $115 (non member) entry fee is more than reasonable for a full day of motorsport.

- I am guilty of this, but we are trying to promote a fun, safe event, and desperate times call for desperate measures. We aren't running a nazi camp, we are here to run events that members enjoy.

- All the info has been posted in the events thread, this here thread as a last ditch effort to gain interest before the event gets cancelled.

got a mate with the 180 who said he'll decide by thursday or friday at latest..... hes keen but alittle tight on cash so hes just gota work out a few things first and might have no choice but to sleep in the car saturday night in canberra lol

I think it was 4 by the end of it. Abo bob can confirm, but basically we were SO close. The difference between running this event and not running this event is all in the "hey mate im doing this day with the skylines club, its fun and cheap, come along!" between mates

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
