I believe when mr parish sold Oran park the deal was that the track must be relocated at that time it was supposed to be Wilton but never happened so I agree something is better than nothing as Oran park was used 364 days a year I'm told.

Bit short at the moment....I can see the track has also been inspired by Tsukuba (albeit 795 metres shorter)...but definitely too short so not sure it will really get the adrenalin rushing as probably wont hit very high speeds.

Could probs see the track being extended in the future due to people complaining about it being to short.

Any track is a good track in my mind.

And, you will surely learn more about car control at a short, tight track like Marulan than you will at a quick, open track like Phillip Island or Eastern Creek. You can go fast on those big tracks but it doesn't even really feel that fast on a wide track with big run offs.

You need to go to MDTC, and then tell me how it won't get your adrenalin going.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
