Hello all,

Skylines Australia ACT have been extended a personal invitation from Ultimate Tunes to attend a new event that will be taking place in Phillip on the 5th of September 2009...

JDMFEST09_sml.jpg

This looks like it could be a great event for local Jap car enthusiasts and will surely grow in popularity in the coming years... So lets show our support! :)

I have been told that there are limited spaces for the show and shine (60 in total) and there has been quite a bit of interest from other local car clubs already.

So put your hand up (or name down) if you are keen on attending the FREE Show 'n' Shine and / or DYNO Challenge so that we can get some idea of numbers.

Also - there will be prizes and giveaways on the day for entrants to the Show 'n' Shine and the DYNO comp, so as the ad says - start polishing your ride!

I'll start us off...

1. Bullet32 - Show 'n' Shine

I'll have a bash at the awd category but I aint got nothing at the rears compared to what some of those Supras are putting out there.

I might come down for a look but there's no way in the world I will ever put my car on this dyno ever again. I had a bad experience there the one and only time I was there and that's enough for me. I've forked out too much cash on my car to have it harmed on a dyno.

I'm not sure if there are any other Supra's attending though, I'm just down the road so I'll pop down to check out all the cars.

Cheers

Ross

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
