How did Jenkie go over the weekend? Does anyone know what engine Mark is using now?

I was in a rush to get back so did not stay long to catch up with him.

Was hoping to see more of the WR1000 but hopefully it will be sorted out soon. I was up on the mount where it leaked coolant. All white smoke and only spat a bit of coolant on the track. Definitely not piston. The rumour did scared a lot of competitors and they all slowed down after the crest :(....and then I had to leave. Would be nice to see the Gallardo do a flat out lap too.

According to the Supp rules and regs, the results will be up on the Mt. Alma website this Friday evening.

Jenkies made it into the top 6 but didn't quite qualify for the top 3, so he more than likely finished 4th, 5th or 6th outright.

Have to admit, it was an awesome sight watching the Widebody R32 just hook up off the start line and just launch off into the distance! I think he hit the 200m speed trap at 169km/h (only 2-3km/h behind Viagra). My Evo 6 struggled to hit 140 lol

Edit: Provisional Results are now on the Mt. Alma Website!

I thought i saw you up there (red polo shirt?) andrew needs glasses:)

Definitely provisionary, missing a few people. Good to know made it in the top 17 time-wise in the old-fella's road-registered 32 :P

Just need the final results now :)

Good work Mark and Luke! And all those that entered!

is that the one that looks like it has flames on the bonnet? maybe not and i was just cooked from standing in the sun all day.

That 32 was a MONSTER!! i was sitting with the missus and a couple of mates at the last little left hander near the finish line, a lot of blokes got pretty sketchy through there when they were pushin!

i couldnt get over the maclaren though :O

...I'm not one for flames...but yes, that's my Old-Fella's GTR (I've tried convincing him to change to a carbon-fiber bonnet) - so you weren't totally cooked by the sun, but if it helps makes two of us!

But you won't hear me complain, as compared to my 32 gtst the Old-fella's leaves mines for dead :P Feel for those 2WD's around some of those corners!

cheers guys good to meet more sau dudes. thanks for ya help out there Andrew and matty with informing me of how I was going... and bozzy dan and brad drove like ninjas. yes the 180 is awesome, I had a few perve moments :yes: . cant believe how steep it actually is hahaha

HAHA well thats a good thing! you were parked out on the side of the dirt road when i left out the back entrance i think it was, driving along that dirt road was murder, sounded like my door was gonna come off :)

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
