Did Luke Heslo want a timer as well? I thought that he had his own

I do have my own Dale, but if it means the difference between hiring the gear or not I'll put my hand in my pocket :(

EDIT: You also forgot Heslo's +1

Well that's the 12 then.

There is one place available if someone wants lukes and he will use his own.

for those with iphones you can down load the GPS lap timer for a few dollars. Worst case it will be 1/10 of a second out, I'll be seeing how well it works this weekend so let me no if anyone wants feedback.

if you're talking about "trackday" i've got it on my phone but haven't had much success getting it to work yet. it took ages to register the starting point and then triggered laps at totally different parts of the track. perhaps the gps reception wasn't great - I'll try next time to get a better signal on the dash...

if its like last time (99% will be) its self-scrutineering. by signing the application form, you agree that your car is roadworthy and isnt going to dump 5L of Motul on turn 1. usually 3 groups of 20 mins each, slow med fast, you sort yourself into your own groups.by about lunch time, people with issues or those coming off early creates more space in each group, so there will be plenty of sessions with little to f**k all cars on the track, so dont sweat it if your not in your preferred group in the morning.

just make sure you wear or take a long sleeve cotton shirt with you, you can grab one from cotton on for $20, long pants, and your helmet. Fire extinguishers not required.

Hey guys, I cant wait for the day... have been so busy with work I havent driven my R35 in the

hills for over 8 weeks. Shame, shame, shame. That car should not be sitting in the shed.

Anyone want to charge the battery for me just let me know...............

As far as the R33 goes I have not driven that in 6 long months since last track day in October

so will be nice to re-introduce myself to the Holinger & give it a serve. Way too long between

drinks....(well, for the GTRs anyway - hic!)

Have just got my new 10.5" wide RE30s with new Michelin Slicks fitted so will be a great experience

to drive the car with more grip out of the corners - the yoko AO48s (3 track days old) were struggling'

to hang on out of corners so will be fun to be able to power out & get some good speed down early.

All AI need to do now is learn how to actually drive the car properly get used to braking!!!

I will drive the R35 out & give it a few goes as well, but not expecting great things as it has around

12000 hard kms on the original bridgestones & they will suffer after a few hot laps.

Unfortunately, it requires a different set of rims to the R33 so cant just swap over the slicks.

Hope the weather is just like today......

See you all there.

JM

Ps. I dont have a 12v outlet in the race GTR but would welcome the timing gear for a go

in the R35 if it is available for 1 or 2 sessions.

The Race GTR is still very much in testing mode so not too fussed about lap times.

Anyone want to charge the battery for me just let me know...............

If by 'charge the battery' you mean drive the car more regularly so that said battery maintains its change then I believe that we could come to an arrangement :(

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
