Hello all,

I have hired the skidpan for half a day, because I had 10 friends interested and 'confirmed'. Anywho, two have pulled out so I have two spare spots for a skidpan day.

When: Saturday December 17th 8am - 12:30pm

Wehere: Sutton Road (Driver training centre)

How much: $130

Who: Run by Dereck 5th Gear Motoring.

Will be a very fun time, if anyone is interested please let me know.

Thanks,

Anthony.

Stupid iPhone won't let me watch awesome skids :(

But yeah theyre not to keen on skids that aren't done on the skidpan, in the water...so there's no smoke. In saying that though they like to get you to push hard and if need be use the edges of the pan (bits not soaked in water) to get really big long slides.

Yep $1300 for the day, 10 people is a good number you should get 4 runs each. I unfortunately now have 11 people so may be restricted to 3 runs each. Will try to convince Dereck to squeeze 4 in. I won't be organising another day, it's a lot of money up front and I had a lot of people cancel etc. Though, it is awesome fun. If someone else organises one I would be keen.

    • Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car 
    • 100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.
    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
