Next Moto Concepts Track Day, Eastern Creek, 2nd October 2003.


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

Here we go again.

I will speak to Dave Stone in the next few days to see how many spots he can give us @ $180 (approx) each but again I MUST get deposits off people or there is not going to be spots kept for them.

SO... I need to know expressions of interest soon and deposits ($50) MUST BE IN NO LATER THAN THE 19th of September. I will be in homebush on Sunday morning and at the SAU General Meeting (open to everybody, only members can have a say).

THIS IS NOT AND OFFICIAL SKYLINES AUSTRALIA EVENT.

You will need as usuall.

Full Face helmut

non-flamable Clothing. (Jeans and a cotton longsleve shirt)

Covered shoes.

Road worthy car (Basically just check for oil leaks and if it is regoed you will be fine)

$130 (balance of payment, this is easier if it is cash)

Full tank of fuel... you normally drive about 300kms in a full day at the creek... basing you fuel consumption on my average track consumption of 26L/100kms you can see that I have to head out and fill up between one of the sessions.

Tis a good idea to check all fluid levels and make sure you have at least half your front break pads left. Also advisable to bring a bottle of octaine booster with you.

Cheers,

Dan.

ahh, some members of the team have reappeared :D

Yes Duncan - it would appear that not all of us have the same flexibility with our clients as others. lol

I've got my co-driver back as well.

I'll be in the middle of moving house that week so I think I'll need the time out!

Neil puts hand up,,,I want more,,,. Carlo and Doughboy me thinks if it's $180 it's gotta be a whole day.

Ah Bonkers will be nice to catch up with you again,,,Been a while buddy.

Neil.

Wow... nice to see team track day still has it!

Updated Above.

Carlo,

Tis a full day. (That goes for you two DoughBoy!)

Bonkers,

It will most likely be $180 for the car if your only driving in one session (eg only session B) and $20 for the extra driver. It will be $180 each if your both driving a session each (eg Session A and Session B).

So where is Silver and Dino (I think he is in Paris) and akira and Prank and shit the list goes on!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
