Every one knows (or should know) that no matter how many tracks the gov builds/opens, nothings going to stop the 'hoons' from 'hooning' on the streets. Track = no adrenaline rush (sorry, but for me, driving/drifting around and around and around in a big circle just isnt for me), and theres no thrill of getting caught by the popo, in the end u dont havta pay to drag, drift or race on the street, so u will always have hoons and dick heads!

My 2c.

We'll just tell the Government/private enterprises not to bother then.

:devil:

^^ agreed.... If your "rush" is getting chased by the cops or putting others lives at risk drifting on blind turns in the hills then it is you who is the dickhead.

i think you are a complete f*ck head.

you clearly do not deserve your license back at all.

A purpose built track at torrens island has been rumoured, which sparked a bit of interest, but nothing concrete yet.

and as for "i would be more than happy to help build and upkeep the track as long as we were able to use it on a regular basis", it is far far more complex than that, your looking at state government funding, qualified people to design and build the track, insurance costs, etc etc. I see your drive, but i the stadium cash is going into the new oval at this stage, if you wanted to put in a proposal youd be waiting until at least 2012 before you could even drive on the new track. Best outcome in my opinion is to get more frequent use out of either Port Gawler or Mallala.

pt gawler now that was a fun track :D only problem there was last time i was down there i asked them about the drifting side of things and was told that theres no way its gonna be there again. :laugh: only karts and stuff from now on, but if anybody had a foot in there i could be there in 20 mins lol :cool:

and as for the complexity of keeping a track up and running i understand theres alot more in it than that but thats all i can offer :devil:

lol at Bib & Bub coming on here and alienating our regulars...........you don't get that privilege until you've clocked up a few posts mate otherwise you'll feel like a dick if you attend any of our cruises/events...............and it's not very wise to go alienating people you've never met

sorry if i rubbed you the wrong ways its just that some people piss me off :devil:

As already stated by some of the other members we already have Mallala to drift/race at so i don't see why the government would want to hand over millions of tax payers money to build another track. I would push for more drift days at lala, it seems like the best option to me.

GTR-32 have you been to a lala track day? i've been to mallala for one track day and i had way more fun in that one day than i ever have driving on the street, driving around the back turn of the track at 180km/h + is more than enough to get anyones adrenaline cranking.

I have asked Clem at Mallala how much to hire the track..

It cost $4,000 there is usually a permit in there too and with CAMS can be a pain in the arse.AASA is much easier to get and use. plus you would need a ambulance fee which is about $500 and a tow fee to get cars out of the kitty litter if they get stuck usually around the $200 mark..

You dont really need volunteers or officials on the track but it helps..

All you need is to be cams affiliated club and a few scruiteers to look over the cars to make sure there safe and have the will to take your car to the track!

I think a better idea would be to get in on the other club days and open days that are held at Malalla and ask for a drift session..

Its the latest craze over here in NSW..Most open track days are holding a drift session and if people ask at our track days we hold and there are enough that want a drift session and willing to pay it happens also.

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
