great day, thanks to all that came and thanks to all that ran the day!

I took 1,133 pictures.. and that was only from the first half of the day lol..

I'll start sorting through and post some up :wub:

Hope everyone made it home with no dramas.

stoopid EMO failvia..... :wub:

something very broken in front left wheel hub area... epic shuddering and crap under brakes so only ended up getting about 10 laps in all day :D Mustered out a 1:10 which is 3 secs quicker than previous PB, but not my sub 1:10 i was after..... Hopefully once the car can brake normally, get a decent alignment, a sub 1:10 is in order!

Bloody awesome day, seeing everyone with grins from ear to ear, makes it all worth while!! Overall it seemed to run very smoothly. everyone seemed to be well behaved and fun was had by all x11ty!!

I even had the boys in blue pull me over for a 'chat' on the ride height and DB's.... that just topped off my day to a T...

All in all well done to everyone, Chubbeh in the MXfail with 1:16's.. Clapa doing the V8 boys proud with a great 1:12 and the rest of the peeps that were out there having a blast!!!

Bring on SAU Track Day - Round 2!!

Awesome day guys, another big thanks to all the organisers.

Huge thanks to Dan as well for actually showing me the correct lines compared to what i thought were the correct lines. Really helped mate! "Turn in late, later, later, later - NOW" :wub:

Ando, i think you're epic shuddering was contagious. I had no drama's all day, until i slowly hit the brakes for the first time on the way home. I'm hoping it's a warped disc or 4 (feels like it). But i think i also felt shuddering on deceleration. I'm hoping it's my imagination.

The car held up great all day, but def need decent tyres and suspension.

what an orsm day, had a blast!

A huge thanks to everyone in organising and making the day run smooth and eazy (have you done this before? :wub: )

hopfuly the 2door will running for the next one so i dont have to put up with fail suspension....

chubb... how are you settling into the new car?!?!? bit different hey?? no dramas?

I wish i was there!

Well thanks everyone for coming and thanks for behaving yourselves. I'm glad you all had fun, sux about the few that had troubles, myself included in that. Fatz ghetto coilpack fix saved my day. I couldn't seem to push out any better than a 1:09.6 today but I had fun nontheless. Ando you are going to get that car into the 1:08's, I'm sure of it.

Thanks Dan for you help - sux about the failboat. Cheers for the beers too, onto number 3 now and feeling a little better although Cali is still working at cooking me dinner. :wub:

Duncan, a world champion as usual. Spent all day helping people. Thanks mate.

Chubbs good work on flags and scruitineering. Pity about the car...

Everyone who helped out on the flags from time to time, thanks.

The weather - thank you god, I have never been to a more perfect Wakefield day.

And lastly David... just lift off a bit mate.. lift off... BRAKES... BRAKE... PUT YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE!

No probs :D . Happy to help, a glad it worked Genelle. Hope all went well in the end.

Thanks SAU for a great time!!

Being a track 'neuby', I'm glad I finally had a chance to take the beast out to a track day.

I was all over the place and chewing up my brakes and tyres, but eased up on the wear and tear once Benm came onboard for a few laps.

Thanks very much for the tips and patience!

Car held up okay, and I spun off a couple of times lol (damn turn 1!).

I went through a front set of new project mu's 400deg pads in 3 sessions, had the bendix ultimates as back up luckily!

I got timed on my last session with the 18's and street rubber, and rear wheel drive lol. Got a 1:23, with a best of 1:12.

Good to see some new faces too, well done everyone!!

Pics to come...

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
