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.

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.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
