Heys all,

Just putting it out there, i've got a 4 spots open for an ARVO double skid pan session at RAC's Driving Centre at Perth International Airport.

Starts at 12.30, so you'd be required to be there by 12.15pm the latest. Finishes approx 4.30, but you may leave when you like.

Cost is $110, non refundable unless you can find someone to take your spot.

Payment would be required as soon as possible to confirm your spot.

Would like payment, no later than 14th aug please

for noobies:

* You will need long sleeve shirt or jacket, long pants and covered in shoes

and socks.

* No loose items to be in cars, tyre pressures to be 4-5psi higher than

standard

* Helmets must meet the following accreditation-

SNELL SA2000, SA2005, SFI 31.2A (US); and

AS/NZS 1698:2006 (AS/NZS 1698)

Cheers

Its got nothing associated with SAU or SAUWA.

I dont know what was ran a month ago, but this is the double skid pan. not the track at rac driving centre.

Track is layed out using cones, and you drive around them.

yah, sounds like what happened a month ago. that was basically just a thrash session didnt learn much /shrugs

the instructors pretty much leave it up to you as to how much you want to learn.

anyway i may be interested, depending on when my new tyres arrive... not going to be much good out there running on the wires.

yeh i went to one a month or so ago, was my first time and the instructor hopped in the 1st time, told me how to handle the wheel properly, and how to turn in better. then the other 10 or so runs after was on my own. not bothered or anything, you pretty much get the feel of things and just try different methods of taking off, approaching/exiting corners etc, keeping the car poised.

every cent of the $80 was worth it though.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
