Bob, you won something :)

Can't remember what, but I'm sure they'll put up results somewhere.

OK........ Cool.. Thanks for that.

I haven't heard anything though.

Yeah, was all handed out at the Dinner. Unfortunatly a lot of the people from the S&S had shot though by then.

Was great seeing both your cars together. If you didn't catch the Guy who judged the ADM, and want that chat, you can PM on SAU under "jetwreck"

Without stating the obvious, not yet. We need to put them up here, and I don't have them, and have been at Sandown all weekend with the DR30.

However, if you had of come to the dinner, you would have known a week ago :D

Just a note on the sprint classes. Dennis has been moved across to class D and the results amended. That was done a couple of days ago when it was pointed out to me but the results are on the same link as before.

The remainder had to be checked out by myself while I dropped a sprint run to try to spot every car to check on classes. Most cars which were registered and driven to the day would have not ended up in race class, Fatz cause it is Fatz! Plus he and Jenna have been tracking that car pretty hard for a couple of years. I think Dennis is one of two cars I did not manage to spot while walking around.

The regularity results are up on the same forum link with the rest of the sprint results. To explain them, the regularity is scored by the standard deviation calculated in Excel between your three fastest laps of the day, so every driver who did at least three timed laps on the day went in the regularity, the closer together your fastest three the smaller your standard deviation and the better you do. A small club I am part of has been doing it's whole championship like that for years as we have about six regular competing members in five very different cars and the regularity format takes the car out of the picture while still not having to do anything but drive it as hard or as gently as you want.

GTR32G, just to put in another apology, I actually was expecting you to move up behind me pretty quickly and was looking for you, but between us we managed to time you moving across with me changing mirrors as I was starting to move towards the kink and I lost sight of you entirely as you went into a blind spot (Between the cage and helmet and driving position (Very very low, the windows are at my shoulder) the blind spots are not small) Just glad that there was no damage done, not what I want to see happen at a track day and certainly nothing I want to find myself involved in.

I also want to put up a thank you to everyone who helped on the day and everyone who entered, Given the format of the day (With Group A/C demos and or passenger laps between each timed run) I think that five timed runs of 12 mins plus two passenger sessions at the end of the day is not bad going. on a normal day without the historics there we would probably have had seven timed runs for the day.

Here is a HUGE word Doc with winners of the show and shine.

No doubt i will be making a smaller version and adding more photos to it as soon as i can.

And adding the missing categories

Gday, I"m wondering if the trophy for the show and shine were ever sent out ?

999 AutoShop Best R33 Modified winner – AL.62.VB

Thanks, Mark

I have your trophy sitting on my Desk, we had the rego number, but not the info for the car. can you please email [email protected], and I will get it sent out to you. Yours was only 1 of 2, of the over 100 trophies we gave out that is still to find a home. Congrats on the win, and I am looking forward to sending your Gold medal out.

    • 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
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
