Any objections to a random spectator? I won't have my brakes done by then so unwilling to hurt them much in the condition they are in, but don't mind watching.

Spectors ar enot only welcomed, they are encouraged! Please come along anyway.

As for your brakes, its not a really high speed type setup so std brakes will be fine. Top speed will probably be around 90-100kph. Plus, its not a race, so no need to put unnecassary pressure on yourself or the car.

As long as your car would pull up they would be fine, in my opinion if you would drive it on the street you could drive it on the skidpan ;) From memory once or twice I hit about 110 (maybe a bit more) last time out before I thought it would be a better idea to get on the brakes rather than try to clear the grass onto the v8 track :P That's a great thing about it with the instructors, you find out so much more about good braking points & turning lines :)

I'm waiting on confirmation of our paintball windup before I start swapping sessions. That said, if we can attend the afternoon session then I'm looking for another spot in the arvo for my mate :dry:

What shop is the best to purchase helmets from? I've failed to try and find a thread where I recall I think someone saying the Suzuki Bike Shop in Midland was meant to be good with good prices too. I cbf shopping around, rather just go to one shop and get the helmet with little fuss.

There's a new place next to Superchump in Morley that sells helmets and stuff.

If you're investing in a new helmet for motorsport activities then you might want to make sure you get a proper car racing helmet (can't remember what the regs and codes are) as motorcycle and car helmets are different.

If anyone is willing to swap from afternoon to morning let me know.

Seul_avec who is currently signed in for morning would rather go afternoon...

I'll take that swap if it's not already taken :banana:

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • 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!
