isn't that Friday the 21st? competition Saturday 22nd?

Now im confused - from the assigned 5 sessions - surely a couple of these would be practice and surely on the Fri? or maybe 1 session per day?

Thanks for that Steve. Pity there isn't one closer though, was really hoping for an open day on the 19th/20th.

Harry: I think both days are competition mate. I was hoping to get a good day in prior.

Some bling bits just arrived for The SLot Car.

We discovered this billet alloy dry sump set up made in USA for our VQ30 twin turbo motor we are fitting. It is a girdle, sump, oil air separator, dry sump pump and oil filter bracket all in one. THe motor will be more reliable, help piston rings seal better, less drag for crank, both indirectly making more free power. so more power, less weight in front, as oil tank will go in left rear of the car. Also allows us to move the engine further back and lower, lowering the weight in the car, allows us to raise the steering rack to get rid of bump steer, rather than spacing the outer steering pivot point down. It also allows us to run a better front air dam in under tray, as has more clearance.

The new motor should have us well under 1150kg and much better balance front to rear and left to right as mounting the oil tank left rear allowing us to remove 10kg of lead.

wow sub 1150kg sure is light! :P

When we do carbon fibre tailgate with Perspex window and carbon front bar, it will be well under 1100kg. Then have plans for building a 3.8 litre VQ with VQ35 crank and Darton Sleave kit, which we have, and will be easy 500plus rwkw, maybe for next year. Also have plans for custom Chrome Molly front suspension, getting rid of the heavy king pin and upright, this should save many kilos off the front suspension, through in traction control and looking at Ikea Sequential shift kit with ignition kill and we might only be a mile away from the big guns rather than miles.

There is a ARDC supersprint the weekend before on the 16th is a round of the CAMS Supersprint Championship, would be hard to enter unless you are registered in the Supersprint championship as you get first preference, but worth a shot. I will be running the Mazda R100. When i get entry forms will let people know and then you could contact the ARDC.

Thanks for that mate, would really appreciate it.

John: Z sounds like it's coming along nicely, should be even more of a weapon soon.

So I hear on the grapevine that the Scion is coming from the States!

It's apparently now up to 1200hp and has undergone a 4WD conversion with a custom billet alloy cased gearbox! I also hear he's flying the thing over! haha

I think the entry list is nearing 10 internationals, which would be awesome!

I was giving some private tuition to a couple of guys yesterday at the creek who are both running in clubsprint. Far out, there are some fast cars around. R33 GTR in clubsprint spec doing a 45.4 on a hot day is not mucking around. Also good to see Lofty out there with the BSM R32 GTR doing some serious testing. They were pulling 280kph down the chute and were well below the 40 sec bracket :D

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Automatic Power Button Light Flashing

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      R34 Plug Identification

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
