I'd love to but I've been told that I'll only get a couple of laps without an oil cooler, and not much more with an oil cooler. Not sure that I'd want to pay money when I can only push it hard half the time.

It would be good to go with a group of newbies though, don't want to make an ass of myself while running with the big boys. :D

Hey wat the? a couple of lapz without a oil cooler? :)

Oh anyone like to provide more details?

I would love to come... Did a performance drive last monday which was great. Had 4 sessions on the QR full track which was excellent. Car is still stock (have a SAFC2 untuned) and reached 180km/h on back straight and 170km/h front straight. Could go on for hours, la la la.... (have some footage, soon to be in MPG format).

Want to do it again....

BUT.....

Thats the day my first kid is due into the world. I think I would be shot if I went. Would be good to see Melv's car on the track. Would have been interesting to see it up against the 911 GT3 that was there.

Oh well, maybe next time.

im keen as but i cant arrange it as im still a virgin at this stuff

so if anyone wants to brake me in im keen to get out to there.

We used to all meet up earlier and cruise into Q.R. a bit before lunch 11ish I think. You just got to fill out some details to get your Q.R. recreational license then pay for your laps and then get into it. If we all put SAU on the top of our form they will group us together aswell. Looks very cool when you have a grid full of Skylines.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
