Going through my window cam and working it out by the footage, the fastest times I did were 1:27's (many times), averaged 1:28 if I wasn't caught behind someone. What kinda timers are everyone using?

My 2nd off about 1minute after my dirt bath:

and my corner exit onto pit straight tank slapper:

youtube links should be right now

Thanks for the links, I was in the stocky white 33 in the vid.

Thanks to Adrian for organising a great day out, enjoyed by everyone there I'm sure....

I was the photographer out there for the morning(other commitments meant i couldent do the afternoon)

i will post some pics up here soon, was some very nice cars (was also my blue 32 in the pits incase anyone was wondering!)

cheers jamie

Jamie, were you on corner 2 just near the pit straight and then on the final corner near the start / finish line ?

last time it was dyno'd it was 170. added a couple small things since then, and the boost is a little higher (1.2 bar now, was 1.0), need to fit my ebc and adjust the timing a little bit.

fantastic day ! cheers again adrian and everyone out there.

my front pads are allllll metal, flakes and pins of metal and not an ounce of pad ! - slotted discs will be ok and fine tho.

ordered new pads as its hard to find db1250 over the counter

doing oil service right atm, ready for new pads to be dropped in tomorrow/thursday whenever delivered.

also found where the fuel map stops at 6000 - 6400rpm. needs a recalibration via a full license nistune/consult (mine cant change the logs)

Anyone who was having problems with their pads running the QFM pads.

I have done 3 track days with the set on the 180 and they (the fronts) still have at least another day left in them and the rears are bearly touched, that's pulling 1:23's as well.

cant say enough about my qfm pads. they were brilliant. only lost the pedal twice during the day, and i daresay that would have a fair bit to do with my rears f**king out repeatedly.

Here is some in car from No.96

I was meant to warm up my tyres for a lap and a half and then push on. It is amazing how an R35 going past changes plans.

I use my mobile phone to video, it is mounted next to the rear view mirror, as I got to the Southern Hair pin the phone rang and stopped videoing.

enjoy

What my brand new front QFM A1RM pads looked like after the 4th 20minute session (I only knew something was up because i heard scraping on the left front while pulling out of pits into general area.

I've done 2 track days, motorkhana and a number of spirited drives on my qfm a1rm pads and rda slotted rotors all round and theyre only about half worn.

i averaged on 1.30 at mallala on shitty street tyres and running 10psi (anyhting over computer has a fit). Minimal brake fade after 6-7 laps.

Theyre great value for money, and i will be getting another set once these are goneski.

Might also depend on the way you drive i guess, some people i know chew through pads and rotors no matter what they are.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
