Hey Guys,

Short notice I know.

I'm heading out to the track on Sunday if you want to come join me.

Helmets and long sleeves\pants required.

No CAMS licence required.

I'm getting there at around 9:30 am.

Hey mate I'd be interested if I can get the car ready in time. Just wondering though, do you need to be part of a club and what's the cost for the day?

Also as far as the car goes what do you need? Is it just secondary bonnet restraint, fire extinguisher (size?) and blue battery triangle or do you not need that stuff for a practice day?

because it's just private practice you don't actually need anything although I strongly recommend a 2ndary bonnet restraint and a fire extinguisher (900g+)

Entry is $130 if you're not in a club or $80 if you are. You can join HSCC on the day.

Well when I said "decent" I was just planning on putting some good street tyres on the standard R32 16's as they are pretty worn, but I have been contemplating getting a second set of wheels at some stage, I did look at Veeto's wheels but wasn't sure how well they'd fit on an R32, also I don't know how serious I'm going to get with tracking the car.

I reckon they'd go nice on your ride, if you want a test fit come round on the weekend and I'll throw them on for you :)

edit, if you want some new rubber, PM Dave.TAS he gets really good prices, he supplies me with all my Federals I use for drifting.

My rear streets are... possibly legal. It will be fiiiiine.

For serious, if you're not planning on smashing any records and you take it easy any set of streets is fine :) you will just have to rest them every now and again

Yeah turned out to be a really good day for it, dried out really early and the track warmed up nicely :) Car felt good with new a1RM pads, exhaust, and slightly higher boost levels.

Had the first small issue with my car from track use, blew half the exhaust manifold gasket out toward the end of the day. For 5 track days I'm pretty happy with such a small problem, same set of tyres as when I started too ;)

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
