**autosports** Oran Park "grand Prix" Circuit, Thursday 17th September.


Recommended Posts

YES... THE GRAND PRIX CIRCUIT!!!

We are pretty stoked to be able to bring this date to you guys. Those that have driven this track will agree that it is without question the best permanent race track in the country

Those in the know also know that this track will 100% be closed at the end of this year and this could seriously be one of the last chances you will ever get to drive this circuit.

* $250 per driver

* Includes qualified driver trainers

* Official timing

* strictly 4 groups of 15 cars running 15 minute session

There is really only five weeks till these event and we dont want to wait till the last minute to get numbers sorted. I also don't think that it will take too long to book this event out given that dates on the GP circuit are so hard to access.

So if you want to experience driving this amazing and rewarding Grand Prix circuit... register for this event now and don't miss out!

Hey Peddler,

Long time no see. I registered for this great day. I loved SAU GP and I will like a repeat. I hope I reserved my spot via this TIXI reservation but, the $250.00 ticket costed me $264.30. So people if you register expect a little bit more!

Cheers,

Eug.

Brad's 32?

Yep yep, the one and only.

Going to try and put a passenger seat in it.

Hopefully it will last the whole day. It doesn't have a great track record with Oran Park.

  • 3 weeks later...

Here is some in car footage from my run during session 2. I've still got a bit to learn about putting the power down smoothly and trail braking more into several of the corners.

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
