Need this in Sydney, sounds great.

One question though, what happens when a street car with a half cage enters, the rear seats must be removed for engineering it, is it still classed as street if the engineering cert is supplied.

Thanks Mark.

Thanks mir, we are looking forward to another big year for this event.

If rear seats are out it will be in performance class. As a general rule, guys don''t usually have a totally stock car that happens to have a roll cage. Rules are always hard to make and never fit every case. We tried to get a set of rules that define a class of car, there will always be a few exceptions though !

Says nothing about being stock

The Tyres must be DOT and ADR approved.

All OEM Tyres (This includes the factory RE070 supplied by Subaru for the STI's)

The car must be road registered.CHECK engineered

Must have OEM glass.CHECK

Must have OEM doors.CHECK

Must have OEM full dash.CHECK

Must have all seats in the vehicle. (aftermarket seats allowed) ADR approved front seats (R34GTR)

Must have full interior in the car. Not allowed to be stripped out. ??? you need to remove rear seats/belts for engineering compliance

Must not have in cabin adjustable brake bias or pedal box.CHECK

By this I could have a modified vehicle as long as it fits in the above, my reasoning is that my car is registered and enginneered but does have a roll cage for extra safety, hence removal of the rear seats.

Come to Sydney and Ill have a go at it of course but I feel the rules have got some holes that could be looked at, ie harness use without cage? safety?.

Wish I could be there for this it sounds awesome.

Mark.

thats a shame nod. Lakeside is a better track there is no doubt about that but if you want to see the gun cars you need to be at qr. lakeside noise restrictions mean you never get to see the field that attends qr. some of them are mega hp cars too so what better place to watch them stretch their legs than the paper clip.

Me, Ill run any track any time. A bad day at qr still beats a good day at work.

Before I start, it is a fantastic event and well done to all involved. I hope it goes well for everyone and continues well into the future.

A good powerful car being driven well is an awesome sight, especially at lakeside. There is almost no better place to showcase a cars true potential, Morgan Park perhaps. Big power with some awesome turns of speed now on the track extension makes Morgan even more of an all round track testing the holy trinity of performance. Power, Agility and Braking. I saw an all white V8supercar team testing out there 3 weeks ago. On the wed before Noosa hill. The buggers locked the gate on the public test day.

If I want to see a big $$$$ wallet racer stretch some legs, I'll go to the drags. QR is as close as a race track can get to a drag strip, so I guess it stands to reason for its location. As for a day at QR better than a day at work, even with a feast of fantastic cars to see, Not for this Black Sheep. For the amount of extra work and grief that goes into me taking a day away from work, not even close to worth it. Sorry

There are some top runners booked in already, expecting to see lots of great action on the day.

The PM AWD Shoot Out is booked out, just wish there were a few more Nissans to run in the AM session to fill the day up.

Presuming that all of these cars actually make it there in time I think it will be.

Looking forwards to seeing them all in action and hoping to catch up with a few old faces as well.

How do we know what the groups are (am really just keen to see who is going rather than care what group I am in)

black 34 gtr...52.8

gunmetal 35gtr...53.27

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
