Had a ridiculously good time yesterday!! Thanks to all the organisers for another perfect day. Thanks to Ando especially for the good key tips that shaved up my times --very happy mate!!! :P

Bring on the next one.

Ian, champ you did absolutley awesome! You had it down pat before i jumped in... just need some 'fine tuning' :happy: Wakefield is a great track to 'push the envolope' as such as it rewards you well with times when you give it about 90%! Hitting into the 1:14's is nothing to be sneezed at, well done mate!

As i said before we left, get to OP GP!! By far one of the best tracks, fast, technical, flowing, everything you could ask from a track!

ok here is a couple of videos from yesterday.

still editing some others so will try put more up soon

whoever had the white 33 with the plates GEE 33R you should watch the last one. it has a few laps of me behind you.

after going through my videos and timing my laps via that way. my quickest was a 1:16 which i am rather pleased with considering it was my first track day ever and on street tyres

Looks like I am the last one to say thanks, but thats to ALL for an awesome day.

All my mates hear now is "track day this... and track day that..." and they are sick of me talking about my track day already! HAHAHAHA

But i had so much fun. Was so different to go there with a club and not just randoms like i do normally.

Was great to meet the whole gang and finally put some faces to the Usernames and Avatar pictures!!!!

Cheers to chubbs for hand timing me to pull a 1:14 flat...... pretty dam stoked with that, with more mods to come, looking forward to the next day already..

THANKS AGAIN ALL!!!

Oh yeah and it was a race against time to get home on my semi slicks before the storm, just got home and them BOOM down came the rain and thunderstorm. Plus there was flooding in eastern suburbs, looked insane!!!

Good track day for me, despite a number of issues with the car... popping out of third gear was one, the shower of fuel from my tank breather hose was another. Sorry to the open-top guys who got a faceful. Fatz timed a couple of laps for me and reckons I did 1:12.97 which I certainly hope to improve on when the suspension (and other things) are sorted. Abo I hope you enjoyed watching my spin into turn one hehe. Also thanks to Mr Cass for minding my bag. Nearly had to buy a new toothbrush...

Man I wish I had a working car... You kids had so much fun!

Thank you to everyone that spent many hours organising the event, even though I didn't get to drive I'll be at the next one... for sure.

So jealous of all of your lower control arms, lol.

^^

haha, that was me. I saw you had a smile on your face and after the wave new it was all good.

Just got back from Canberra after heading down again this morning i am officially dead tired!

I also found out what my massive shuddering was any time i tapped the breaks on the way home - cracked rear right rotor. Given their condition I'm not too surprised, and gives me a good reason to upgrade i suppose :-)

    • That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.
    • Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.
    • That's convinced me I'll bump up the G30-660 to 770   Any idea if the difference in boost pressure? Cheers

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
