Yes Ferni - you need a CAMS licence. But getting one is no big deal - you can even get one on the day. Basically just a fee of $91pa (you also have to be a member of a CAMS club. But most track days you can get memberships on the day as well)

Ash - dont worry about it mate. $20 to fix it was no big deal.

Bugger off you lot....I wanted them first!!!!!!

I started another thread on Ben's awesome performance http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=38887

I was on stock tyres with rapidly disintegrating rear pads...had to drive home on metal so the brake shop gets some of my money to machine them. Ended up on a 1:36.1 but as you can see the anti roll bars need an upgrade. Tyres were melting pretty fast as well. Can't wait for Sydneykid to dismantle my setup and driving style from the pics.

BTW he will be down at Sandown this weekend (or maybe next...he did say next today so maybe this weekend is clear for the cruise.....I'm so confused) so i for one will be going for the racing and to say hello.

Hopefully R34boy (if that was him) has the pics of the 'rarri that smashed.

Slow car... slow camera.... We get the idea James, you are a slow kinda guy in general.

Aw :Oops:

I guess I'll have to pull my finger out and hit the track.

Avatar changed until I do something about it...

As was discussed at the MAS/Committee meeting last week... (might have been after you left Adam)

SAU - Vic will not have any affiliation with NDSOC in relation to CAMS etc.

Members wanting to do track will have to join with them directly.

We looked into it and currently... aint gonna happen

For more Info, see myself/Snowman/Jameszilla.

we are all upto date with whats going on there and can provide more information if you like :(

Uh huh, had left. GOD DAMN IT!! :)

Ferni - no test - just fill it in :)

Everyone who was SAU on Sunday - Sorry I didn't come say hi and introduce myself - all the excitement was too much for me!!

Also all your mega cars are a bit daunting...

im looking fwd to getting onto a track... wont fix up the body on the ceff til AFTER i do a track day :D the kit on it looks like it would be taken to peices if i went off the bitumen :D

$91 bucks? thats pretty good, i was reading and it was saying it was a few hundred / year

is there a driving test involved etc?

ferni, the C3 full race license is and needs a test. Most events like this just need L2S, you join a cams car club, fill in a form, pay $91 and you're on the track

l2s license http://www.cams.com.au/content.asp?PageID=...rs&ObjectID=311

c3 license http://www.cams.com.au/content.asp?PageID=...rs&ObjectID=301

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
