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!! :)

$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

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
