as per subject..

Yeah...

I was just learning how to use my new camera, so the pics aren't as good as they should be :)

Anyway, here they are:

Merli how did those XR6's go around the track???

Cheers

Noticeably slower than the skylines... I was taking photos all day, and lap after lap I could see the order of cars changing that the XR6Ts were obviously getting overtaken by all the other cars...

Could just be inexperienced drivers? Or they might have been taking it easier? Too many factors to take into account really...

But yeah, they were definitely a little slower than the other cars out there, but still pretty good! (They were stock too)

from the track's point of view, the xr6 drivers were definately new to it all, but they all got progressively better and better with confidence.

they are quick down the straight though! i wasnt making any yards on them!

those are the very same simex tyres..

I had trouble trying to drift that last corner, the car just comes in and understeers or oversteers. By the time I figured it out they got shitty with me for drifting. Also took out ABS for this day... makes a big difference on track when you get used to it.

I had HEAPS of fun on the hairpin getting some very nice drifto around that, but alas the simex's are well and truely FARKED! I had no traction out there so drift was the only option. I think I will have to sit out on the next track day to get the tyre situation sorted.

Franky has video of me sideways up the top of the track, so I cant wait to see that.

yeah tell me about it. I dont think I have ever laughed so hard, especially when we headed down the straight and saw the guy fingering the red flag.

Very funny stuff.

Or when you were being a total maniac by drifting and doing helis all over then track...then the guy in front gets red flagged!!! LOL!!! what a classic!! I'm sorry, but it was so worth killing your brakes and tyres over :rolleyes:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
