Am i able to sign up to SAU even though i don't have a skyline? I meant to ask this question on the day. If so, would love too as i fully support this club in what they do and practice.

Absolutely, Kory - the club is for Skyline enthusiasts, so it doesn't really matter what you drive. Heck, quite a few of our members and Execs (past and present) don't even own a Skyline anymore!

tip freaking top day. Had so much fun, as always as Wakie!!! Love that place.

Had a nice big screeching sliding off into the grass and mud in session 1 when i hit some coolant or something, apologies to Shell as my passenger........ was fun though!!!!!

My Dad had a blast in the Audi, and he loved taking passengers around all day. He was so proud that there was a queue of people waiting for a ride in the Audi ;)

Cant wait for another one. Also my camera battery died after taking 2 pictures on the day, DUH! So i'd be keen to get copies of anyones pics if that ok. Looking forward to that DVD of photos too!!!!

Cheers to Ando, Chubbs Clappa and co for all their hard work getting it organised. These days dont run themselves, and your hard work is greatly appreciated.

As Nick said, you can certainly sign up to become a member. ;)

PM me and I'll mail out forms, or check Secretary "Shell" and her Sig for a download.

Sorry, but I packed up the desk & forms at lunchtime. Cheers, T

What a great day, Ill be out at the next one in my car for sure!

Even put together a RB30 bottom end on sunday for my car, so 11tybillion killerwasps for me!

Glad I could help out, and thanks to Cassbo for taking Prue for a run :down:

and thanks to Sean and Cass for taking me out :)

Wow what a weekend! Great to hear everyone giving it the thumbs up! Only just got back on here to read up on peoples thoughts!

Again i need to say a big thank you to all that helped make this day happen and run smoothly! In no particular order, Stevo, Clapa, Chubbs, Andrew, Prue, Matt, Bobby, and everyone else who did their thing!! :down:

Can't wait for the next one!! :)

does anyone have the email address for that photo place that was handing around flyers, Oz Event photo i think its called....... i got one of their flyers but cant find it.

oep (at) activ8 (dot) net (dot) au :down:

I had a really good day :) everyone who ran it did such a good job!!

I finally went in a car Ando, happy now? Haha.

Will def be at the next one!

Don't know why you decided to go into a slow one though :down:

Sounds like everyone had a good day, lots of PB's, including two zeds. Duncan's GTR went well. The Slot Car was getting pumped up ready for the next one.

Curious what was the fast car there?

Well now that the dust has settled and i've had a bit of time to go over the car i've found a few things as a result of the day:

Both front brake discs have hairline fractures everywhere on the donut's so that explains the vibration felt while braking after the first sessions. Replacements needed

Underbody is fine despite the grass cutting sessions, although the underside of the front cf lip copped it a little bit, there's no real damage

Front brake pads need to be replaced (time for ferodo ds2500's)

A second set of rims will be needed for track days!!!

Well it wasn't me John, I spent to much time spinning around in circles!

Had my first ever spin at the fish hook. I was using Khumo Ku36 tyres, and had no idea that a street tyre needed so much heat before they worked. Came out the pits nice and easy and barely made turn 1. Took it very easy up through the top and even coming in slowly into the hook, all 4 just let go and did a nice couple of 360's.

2 laps later though, they were awesome, and easily one of best street tyres you can get for the track.

John, It was the 32 GTR previously known as FAT R...makes 500kw at the treads or so

The first couple of spins really annoyed me (I think I was just trying too hard) And I thought to myself "I'm never gonna get this right" but I got used to it by the end of the day. I was still pretty happy with how I went at the end of the day for a big newb.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
    • 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    
    • 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.
