Hi guys and gals,

Just letting you know, the 2nd Sprint Round for MC Motorsport is coming up. 22nd April.

Hoping to see more Skylines out there! So far there are only 4 of us among the 60odd competitors.. If you would like to have a go, come along - you don't have to have race car spec. Bring your street car and have some fun.

Here is the course we'll be running this time:

I'm tossing up whether to attend this or the WASCC Tuning Day on the Monday.

Mate, you'll be doing No Limits on the 19th..! why go over the ssssame old corners at Barbagallo again.. mix it up! Not as fast, but more technical at RAC venue..

Yes Richard this is more you, though the Targa track layout is going to to be the one you want most I bet.

I'd like to do all of the events, but I need to do my Observed License Test at Wanners, and the Tuning Day may be my only option.

Well can't argue with that. You have get that license, be great if you can make to the sprint though, love hearing that thing howl!

This time I'm going to try get some decent videos and photos to post up

How do you enter these events? Is it just a rock up with correct equipment, pay and compete or do you need to register, etc?

Good Question. I've attached the entry form which also has the supp regs in it. You need to email/fax this in and would want to get it in pretty quick before spots fill up. There are 30 entries in the morning session and 30 in the arvo. (we go in the arvo normally)

You'll need either a AASA Club Licence or a CAMS Level2s licence. Not much to either of them except filling out a form and paying money. They last for 12 months. The AASA is far easier and so I've linked to it below. Its about $50 bucks for the year.

All you really need on the day is an appropriate helmet, long sleeves and long pants, closed shoes. You also are supposed to have a 1kg fire extinguisher in the car which is about the only 'hassle' you have to sort out once. Generally its easy to make a bracket that fits under the passenger seat rail bolts for example. Pretty easy.

Once you have the licence and the helmet etc - you're pretty much good to go to enter lots of other events including No-Limits nights at Barbagallo and that sort of thing.

Anything you need help with, feel free to PM me - I'd be glad to help.

Good work Matt thumbsup.gif

But I would add, get the CAMS license, pretty sure Nolimits don't take the AASA, and if you want to do events like Macrae RallySprints etc some of them want 2x1kg or 1x2kg extinguishers so I'd just mount a 2kg and your ready for anything..

Good to see some interest on here wave.gif

Just took my entry down today for the arvo session, and there are still spots left, but not many I would think, especially since the NoLimits Event on the 19th has bee cancelled..

PS why has the youtube clip I had embeded now become a full screen shot, since the website was updated?? can anyone in admin. put it back the way it was?

gonna try get up to perth to watch this and hear some RB goodness!!

goodluck lads :thumbsup:

edit: is the address on the map where the track is located or just company address?

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
