yo guys.

its 12:30am (just got back from a wedding) and im pumped for this morning... i hope someone has a size 17 socket so as i can take my wheels off, otherwise i'll be using some very ordinary brake pads!

as duncan repeated, meeting point will be BP/Hungry Jacks on King Georges Rd, Lakemba at 7am- allbeit i feel as though this post is too late...should be on the track by 10am.

i know of 3 other cars making it down. unsure of who else...

Great day at the track yesterday. Woulda been better if their were no bikes or v8 auscars but oh well you get that on an open day I guess.

Highlights of the day for me were:

* Stock Camry with the *beep beep* down the main straight

* White R33 GTR who couldn't help going sideways (smoke or no smoke)

* Franks R34 GTT screeeeeeaming past heading for turn 1

* Franks forgetting the directions back to the Hwy :D

Looks like an interesting track, can't wait to get out there (hopefully on an SAU Private day)

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
