Hi All

I am putting together a privately organised track day on or around the 5th of july at lakeside raceway.

Pricing is 136 dollars for a half day. We are currently aiming for a afternoon session. This event will be run with an AASA permit and there will be timing staff there on the day.

Lakeside also confirmed that they will allow us to run bikes and cars on the same day so long as no cars and bikes are on the track at the same time, so if we can get 5 bikes then we can run 1 group of bikes and 4 groups of cars. We currently have 2 bikes, looking for at least two to three more if we are going to run bikes.

We are looking at 25 drivers for this event. We are currently over half booked with quite a few pending so its first in best dressed.

All drivers require head to toe clothing and a proper helmet and a AASA licence. No QLD Drivers license should be required to participate in this event. Bikes, if we wind up running them, require full leathers and of course an approved helmet.

Possible dates we are looking at at the moment are:

Thursday 23rd of June

Tuesday 5th of July - Preferred date

Format will be 5 groups of 5 vehicles, one group (5 vehicles) on the track at a time. Staggered starts, 1 warmup lap then 5 hot laps then 1 cooldown lap. Everyone Should get 4 - 5 sessions provided everything goes smoothly. There should be plenty of track time for the money, and the track shouldn't be very crowded.

If anyone is interested, please let me know here, or alternatively add me as a contact on facebook where there is an event page setup for this.

Regards,

Ian Batley

Currently, the groups are fairly rough. Group b is a group that has requested to run together, group A should all be roughly the same time. Groups C/D/E are subject to be reorganized once we have some more info on what their composition will be. We will aim to get everyone of roughly the same times together.

put me on that list - I'm keen to get as many runs at Lakeside as possible. I'd also echo Marlin's thoughts on grouping cars of similar lap time together. Its safer and more enjoyable for everyone that way.

Done :)

I completely agree on the grouping - could you please send me a PM with your lap times and facebook details?

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
