that seems pretty cool! $200 to hire their bike for the day..

hmmmm :)

That looks like it would be heaps fun.

Interested

moar texis and driver training type of track days (like the one coming up on the 18th at OP)... oh and taxi service for those without a licence would be awesome. You get to drive someone elses' skyline for free and they get to get out of their home win-win :)

I haven't been to a texi/skidpand/track yet... as someone said not everyone can afford to trash their car/daily due to risk of ruining tyres and whatnot but for me it's a nonissue at the moment as the car's sitting in storage anyway so bring it on!

+1 for fishing type of trips .. Windsor has a nice park right accross the bridge with plenty of parking and mullet and carp are easy and fun to catch, plus the whole area is ideal for bbq/pincin/kicking a ball around ( http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&sou...mp;t=h&z=18 )

That windsor place looks good.

drag day :)

sounds good to me.

What about a dent removal day?

Seen it work with other clubs with great success.

find a dent removal guy

find a workshop who can host a heap of cars

maybe tie it in with a dyno day

get all the annoying little dents fixed at a much discounted price

Sounds even better.

I know SAUNSW is made up largely of Sydneysiders and such but could I suggest something like doing the Harbour Bridge climb or something that is more for the social side? I mean we do a lot of car stuff and yes we do have a lot of strong friendships among the clan which is why I think we should do this as a social event to get more of the new members to fit in with the core clan. :)

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
