whether there is 30 cars or 100 cars the price per car stays the same, the people at willowbank are charging us $48 per car regardless of numbers and require a minimum of 30 cars for them to put it on, so even if club members do get a discount it will be paid for by the club, not subsidised by non members paying more

So then why not keep it to thirty cars... less cars = more runs...

Why would we want to pay willowbank more money if we dont need too???

Who needs warm down time... :ermm:

Going by Noels figures (4 cars per minute roughly) if we keep going and going on 30 cars (assuming no one has a spill) we will get about 16-20 runs each...

If your cars can handle 30 laps of QR a day what are you worried about???

Bring on 20 runs in a row :wave:

PS> I heard Josh is pregnant

Most people i have talked to only want half that amount of runs, plus it gives more people a chance to come out and meet other Skyline enthusiasts and have a run at the track in a friendly environment

20 runs in a row...getting significantly slower each time due to everything being heat soaked to hell...YAY ha ha

Woohah, way to change the direction of the thread. Stop being a knober or I’ll leave poo nuggets and my fetus on your crisp lawn Col-Baby

Not everyone will want 20 consecutive runs in a row, those who want to socialize and talk to other skyline owners will do so and those who want a few more runs will line back up while others are having a chat.

I see no issues?

As already mentioned it’s a set price of $48 from Willowbank.

In regards to members, it’s just like having a discount count card, holders of that loyalty program could receive a better offer then those who don’t hold that certain “loyalty card”. It’s irrelevant that it’s not an official event .

Excuses :)

Yeah no worries, I just dont wanta see 100 cars turn out... It would be nice to be able to get 10 or so runs down...

Plus even if you limit it to 30 there is alwas a 10-15% drop out at the last minute... So it makes sence to have a few extras...

So maybe 50 cars would be a reasonable number, yeah???

To address the cost issues for those who want to know.

Willowbank Raceway charges a particular rate to book the track for 2 hrs and then a fee rate/hr for any hour after that.

We have put a ceiling on the number of vehicles as to give everyone a fair go when it comes to go-fast time.

i.e fewer cars more runs/more cars less runs, I know which I prefer

As to the remarks of why cheaper for members- see Nismo_Boy above

We value our members and this event is a token of our appreciation those who have been with us on this awesome place/site to meet other Skyline owners. This is not to say that unpaid are not welcome cause you are :yes: As non members you are most welcome and there are incentives to paying for membership-so come on you'all sign on up & come have some fun. :P

As to the mention of Bikes- If you are at all interested in bringing your bike thats ok with us.

To all the noobs out there,

Drags are not how you run against others, This day is about creating a personal best 1/4 time and seeing how much you can improve it.

To all who are coming- have a great day & remember as SAU we have a reputation of being well behaved. So lets have fun & leave all baggage at the gate

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
