no chance you will get done for noise in a turbo car.

BTW 3J requires 2x27mm or 1x38mm restrictors. The interpretation of rules are f**king this up for everyone, and will result in decreased numbers in the medium term. far from the first time this has happened in motorsport though.

So...

How do I enter the 8th August sprint?

Need more practice...bit rusty after 7 months out of the game! 2 seconds off my PB :)

Boxhead - what happened yesterday? I saw you about to head out, was going to introduce myself after your session then I saw the car at back of skid pan?

All good?

diff bushings pulled through and the front of the diff fell out and hit the rear sway bar. Could not move the car and tried to fix it after the session but got in trouble with race control. They allowed me to wait until lunch time and i band aided it up so i could get it back on the trailer.

All sorted now but the front caliper seals went as well so waiting to get a new seal kit to rebuild them. Just put 2 bottles of new fluid in as well which is a bummer.

Matt

So that would mean factory active aero then, Eg Porka's, Audi TT's etc Only

Hi zebra,

I asked to run the active wing at sprints and was granted permission, which is why i went ahead and purchased it. But yes it can be locked in a position if required.

was granted permission to run it active? or fixed?

I have permission to run the active wing, so active, yes.

If anyone is pissed off with it perhaps ask John Bugh first. It's the last thing i need, but i would rather get it clarified than have people thinking i didnt ask / get permission / or trying to fiddle the rules; do what you feel you need to do.

FWIW I am running an SV car with slicks, so classified as 4D for points.

FWIW2 i also asked the superlap people and apparently it is ok, but given it's mounted on a carbon bootlid i believe that makes it "illegal" for clubsprint class. I believe there are cars which have OEM active aero, if that matters at all.

Zebra, if you want an official clarification on your question of "So that would mean factory active aero then, Eg Porka's, Audi TT's etc Only", then I'd suggest you contact the Supersprint Panel.

Ouch Matt, thas no good :( Same thing happened to Ryan (BOZ22N) his front diff bushes went kaboomb at wakie last week.

Yeah! A lazy 1.30!!!

Yeah - good to see you had a good time, and must have made it home safe.

Congrats to the radical, Andrie - new record and Marek R35 - new 4D record 1.38.8263 - closely followed by Duncan R35 1.38.9376 - good stuff - too fast for R33

Our right front wheel bearing exploded on third run following new class record - so looking for straight R33 uprights and hub assemblies.

Just sorted points system - reckon we are going to try slicks for the next 2 rounds. Should'nt change outright points - but keen to know what the old girl will do.

See you soon :verymad:

Sorry to hear Matt, the same thing happened to me. What front bushes were you using mate?

Well done Stuart on a new class record! Top effort considering you're day was cut short.

Also, nice to meet you Chris! Very glad for you when I saw 1:59.93 on natsoft. Good work getting under 2mins.

just ordered my cage from bonds, cant wait to meet you next year at the track :mrt:

Cool, that the go. Same as my cage. Look forward to seeing you and the skyline next year also.

Can't wait! I'm dreaming about those apexes already!

A big congratulations to Duncan Forrest on taking out the championship title 2 years in a row! Well done! Excellent achivement. :D

Comesserations Marek, it was a close battle and a hotly contested competition all year. As we know, there can only be one winner.

The lap times from the whole field this year were so much quicker than last year.

Congrats to all other class/type winners also.

See you all next year!

Who's going to the preso/skid pan day on 21/11/10?

cheers guys. i saw that duncan got 1:00.83 in the 35 :) does it have anything major done to it, or are they/he just that quick???

do we need CAMS/FIA approved seats for supersprints? can't find anything on it.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
