Renew Trackday - Eastern Creek South Circuit - December 1


Recommended Posts

RENEW's final track day for 2012 is happening at Sydney motorsport park (Eastern Creek) on the 1st of December, on the new South circuit.

Limited numbers, low track density, Passenger sessions and heaps and heaps of fun. Driver tuition is available for all first timers.

Details & entry forms are available at http://rotaryenthusiasts.com/

Hope to see you all there, spectators are free, members $250, non members $290 (CAMS LS2 Licence required), Passengers need to get a $30 wrist band to ride all day in any of your mates cars during the passenger sessions

This is a good chance for anyone who's still keen after the SAU nationals to get another fix at a local venue. All cars welcome and first timers encouraged as always.

I've found out that AASA club licenses are ok for this event but can't modify the post above. It's important that people organise the license before the event, unlike Wakefield Park licenses arent available on the day at SMSP.

That means that if you've got a AASA license from the nationals event you're good to go.

We're only 50% full for the upcoming trackday at Eastern Creek. What does that mean for you? Firstly HEAPS of quality track time - less cars means more clean laps and PBs. It also means you've still got time to send your entry in but act quick entries will close mid week (exact date TBC).

As for another series I really enjoyed the SAU v RENEW events and we're open to sharing days with other clubs but have nothing planned around that as yet. Around the last events there was a lot of discussion on here about timed events vs running untimed with passengers all day amongst other things so thats something SAU NSW needs to discuss internally first if something like that were to happen again. If both clubs (and this isnt specific to RENEW) arent on the same page the result wont be what it could have been.

We will now accept entries on Friday or on the morning of the event but to do so you need to contact me (Chris) directly via phone or SMS on 0410313104 to arrange your payment and confirm a position.

Thanks to everyone that came out to the track yesterday. We had a bit of rain and blistering temps but the day went well especially for our first time on a new track. Was good to see the stag out there having a good time but would have liked to see a few skylines too. We'll be posting up pics on our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/renewrotary If anyone took their own pics please feel free to share on the page or comment with the link.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
