I think I'll be timing officially this time with a proper track timer - plus the old man will bring out his mega uber camera so pics will be available after. Gonna strap the video camera in the car too - so track footage should be cool.....

im keen to try and make it out. if i have enough time / money to get my car reddy.

what time do u have to get there?

I think last time we tried to be there by 8am, gives plenty of time to sign in and get the car all set up.

bit more camber for the track Chad?

I wish, but i dont have any camber adjustment. Just gonna make sure its all lined up right, cos the toe in on the back looks way out on one side.

Im keen to come have a look, interested in getting my car into this sort of thing, goes well through the hills but would imagine it would need a few tweaks to get the power down around a track and run a decent time. Im interested to see a few of the set-ups other higher powered GTRs run.

A few questions:-

Is Anyone alowed in the pits?

Does the day still go ahead if its a hot day?

What time it start, and how much $ to spectate?

Cheers

Andrew

spectators are allowed anywhere except the "car park" where the cars line up to go out onto the track, and the track itself. The cars all park around the sheds, you can only have one opened if you pay for it. So when people aren't racing, you can wander around and look at everyones cars, if thats what your hinting at :thumbsup:

A few questions:-

Is Anyone alowed in the pits? YES

Does the day still go ahead if its a hot day? YES, but if its to hot i wont be going.

What time it start, and how much $ to spectate? starts about 9ish i think, and entry if free for spectators.

Cheers

started fitting my oil cooler on saturday, just need to fit all the lines and buy some new brake pads, get front guards rolled, wheel alighnment and i should be all ready for Lala ;)

Would the exact same mounting work for a 32 gtr? my cooler kit is coming soon (same except only 16 rows and braided lines) and I don't even know how to take the front bumper off.

How did you make up those mounting brackets?

Im pretty sure it would mount the same in a GTR, depends on what BOV you have? I've got a single aftermarket one so it doesent take up much space.

I made up those brackets at work just using some 3mm alloy sheet that i cut up in the gillo.

looks the goods Chad.

Have to put my brake ducts in this week as well as change engine oil, put fire extinguisher in, and do a full check of the car.

Just wondering if i take my back seat out do i need to block the hole off to the boot?

It should be fine Luke, there's no car checks or anything.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
