Keep me informed and I'll let you know how my contract end date goes......

Thanks.....

Sorry guys the full information is in .doc form and I don't know how to post it in here. So if anyone want it I can sent through the email to them.

sound like fun but there aint many people here with a CAMS license!

Guys, just found what I was looking for. I have just bought a GTS-T after racing an MX5 for two years and wanted to know where I can go to do some track days with other skylines.

The day you are talking about is the HSV owners club day at the island and I have entered. The HSV guys are really nice and run excellent days as I organised many days with them with the MX5 club. Spectators are always MOST welcome and entry is free. Just let the guy know at the gate that you are there for the HSV track day.

As for the day, to run you'll need a level 2ns licence which you may be able to get on the day ($88), a fire extinguisher with metal bracket available from KMart ($32) and a second bonnet restraint. For this a netal cable with two snaplocks and body mounted ramset eyelets, all available from bunnings will do.

The HSV usually requires you to have a 4 point harness but will alow first timers to run with the standard seat belt.

Clothing is long sleeve cotton or wool. NO SYNTHETIC as if you stack and the car catches on fire you'll be shrinkwrapped!!

Anyway, hope to see some of you guys, there. My name is James and I have a silver series II R33GTS-T.

If you have any queries at all re track days feel free to send me an email.

Furthermore, back to the original reason to post, is there a specific club here that runs Nissan/Import track days?? Would be good to run with some other skylines or even a club that has a motorsport championship etc organised. Currently a member of MX5club and Maserati clubs....

Cheers...James (Brutus is my cars nick name)

Apparently I got my entry in too late so mat not be running. Don't get it as I sent it straight after talking to the organiser who stated there were 45 places left!! Very miffed as i was hanging to get this car out to the track and the island is a fun place to start!!

Will probably ber there to at least spectate anyway so if anyone goes down keep an eye out for me....

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • 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...
