where the hell did 1.10 come from!!!!

well done dude!!!

glad to hear your car dramas weren't anything to do with an engine!!!

and clappa! man, pumping out the 1.12s! awesome dude!

any dramas for you??

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

I wish i was there!

O hai... its Ando...

Yeah thats why i am not too fussed.. it drives okayish... lots of shudder and gaids brakes but overall should be a relative easy fix... Yeah happy with the time but a little disappointed as i know i can go quicker..

Just really confused as to what the problem is... think could be busted bearings, warped disc, stuffed caliper.. who knows.... will get it fixed same time as clutch issues :wub:

Chubbs says oh hai liz!! Settling okay, just a new driving style i need to learn... but i will get there xoxoxoxoxoxox

finally home..

ended up getting it towed.

Thanks Brad and Steph to help out anyway, Looking forward to Oran Park now lol

I had a wicked day, best fun I have had in a long time... at the track anyway... lol. :wub:

Although my day started out all optistimistic that the Drift Z would arrive and I would get to tangle with the 1 min 30 somethings... and maybe even torch a set of tyres at mid day. Seems that turn 5 ruined that... and I wasn't even driving... lol, good one GTR Jason.

But no, was great to catch up with people, and great to meet the newbies... and see everyone enjoying grass roots motorsport. I really did have a blast, and have new found motovation to drag the skyzer back out of the shed... might even try to get it going for the hugely anticipated Merli GTR Super car MK1 debut in a months time. :D

Nismo... My pleasure mate, I expect to see you back with new tyres and suspension for Oran Park... where I'll drag my money pit out to. ;)

Stay Sidewayz Kidz,

Dan.

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

lol.... sorry about that mate! ...right after you said "let's see if we can NOT see anybody spin off the track in the first session" too!! :banana:

Anyhow.. your tips were worth gold. I knocked an easy 2 seconds of my previous PB on the same shitty road tyres I ran last year. Thanks for organising a top day out. The only thing that stopped me from going out for one last session was an almost empty tank of fuel... and maybe the dead front pads.

Can't wait till the next one. Hopefully I can finally get some semis on the car and knock a few more seconds off :)

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
