Hey peoples, it's almost time for SKIDS again!!!

Round 2 (of 3) of our Texikhanas is coming up pretty soon...

Event: SAUNSW Texikhana

Location: Nirimba Airfield/TAFE/Skidpan - same place as last time (yeah, it's got a few names)

Location map: https://maps.google....&sz=15&t=m&z=15

Date: 10th of June, 2013 (it's the Queen's Birthday holiday Monday)


What is it: Skidpan courses marked with cones

Lunch: BBQ will be $3 snag sandwich and $1.50 cans (selection of flavours available)

Entry cost first timers: ONLY $45!

Entry cost SAUNSW members: EARLY ENTRY ONLY $45 until 25th of April / $55 Entry fee after the 25th of April

Entry cost Non SAUNSW members: EARLY ENTRY ONLY $65 until the 25th of April / $75 Entry fee after the 25th of April


Want an even cheaper deal? Pay up front for the next two events (10th June & 7th October) for only $80 Members / $105 Non-Members.


Entries strictly capped at Max. 30 cars. This guarantees loads of runs and minimal wait time but in you don't sign up, well, you snooze you lose!

Spectators: Free to watch

Passengers: $10 which is cheap compared to other clubs and events, (SUPPORTS OUR CLUB!!!) , MUST sign on, MUST wear wrist to neck/ankle clothing with enclosed shoes and approved helmet, same as drivers - NO EXCEPTIONS!!! (This is for YOUR safety.)

Courses: Released on the day at sign on

First timers: Don't be shy, you'll love it. First timer F.A.Q. (Thanks Owen) available HERE (Click me baby)


Those of you that have been to one of these before will agree, this is THE best money you can spend as far as driving time for an event. The event will be run after run until 4.30pm, and considering most runs are under 1 minute AND that we're kicking off at 9am, that's a lot of runs wink.gif


This is a safe event where you only go as hard as you want to, there's no pressure, one car on a course at a time. Perfect for beginners to have a first try at driving their pride and joy off the streets.


With that said, there's usually some friendly competition between mates, which is great to watch smile.gif


Timing for the day;

Scrutineering/sign on starts 7.00am

Scrutineering/sign on ends 8.30am (don't show up at 8.25am, come with plenty of time to spare)

Drivers brief 8.40am (mandatory attendance for all drivers)

Runs start 9.00am

Lunch approx 12.30pm depending on how the day is going (One hour)

- All cars must have an insurance approved fire extinguisher secured within drivers reach.

- Sidepipes are not allowed. Screamers/external gates venting to atmosphere are also not allowed to be entered. No exceptions (this is not my choice, I ♥ gate)

- Entries are open now, entries close as stated in Supplementary Regulations (at bottom of this post) to allow time for officials to organise paperwork.

Should be keen for this too! Fez make sure you bring some tyres this time, unlike the hillclimb :P

You'd better sign your ass up for this, And yeah I've got tyres this time so shouldn't be as sketchy as raymo.

I'm bringing the missus along as well to scare the living daylights out of her.

    • All the above effort, time, swapping out parts in the dark (i.e. no O2 data). You're literally running in the dark.
    • Looks like both of my cars have pressure switch issues. The R32 GTR has 18 flashes on the ATTESSA controller which is "ETS pressure switch circuit". The 4WD light is intermittent, and often just restarting the car clears it. There is an $300 replacement option https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285675135148?itmmeta=01HXN3YKRGKQ08GRZ5KFKKZWJT&hash=item428390a0ac:g:6CcAAOSwWxBltMEG so if it becomes a permanent issue and I can confirm that the switch is the issue, i have a solution. The NM35 is reporting C1208, and disconnecting the switch causes the 4WD light to go away. Translating from the Japanese shop manual "when the pressure is reduced to 2.6MPa (377 psi) or less: conduction occurs when the pressure increases to 3.8MPa (550 psi) or less: conduction is present. Reference: • Immediately after the E-TS actuator motor stops, the pressure inside the accumulator is high and there is no continuity." Not sure how good the translation is but from what i can deduce this means the switch is normally closed (NC) and as the pressure builds from 0 to 550 psi the switch stays closed, then opens and 550 psi. As the pressure drops from 550 psi to 377 psi the switch stays open then closes again at 377 psi. Is that how these things work? These pressures are a lot higher than the R32 ("control pressure 0-228 psi") but i'm hoping i can find a generic switch (like they've done for the R32) to use as a replacement. Maybe something like https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355586397452?epid=1676016964&itmmeta=01HXN534AF22ACTG6TGDDQGEQ7&hash=item52ca99d50c:g:mAEAAOSw8ilmBcMh&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8LtWdNlWHgyJ%2F3cbw25S2A1lde3qBi3fJii4T3lQavCz4kpqiD42SmBa4FocMvXCjcxiowHjb8vZ8%2BWxc53BkHv781tkStSnCDaenfGKC3bIp0keK20dfsn9LoPa3TfqaEmAydqqyKobgTdXsGGzsl%2BRjOVGuD8OIpOv%2B0wMl7aUtHg0iJtojbtzA%2BRS8Xfm8Ufjuvz4niwrqglAXFUbkL6J%2FGuHPeeECZhLBBN3iNM1Swl94Fv5zE95YK%2B5O6dxDN1ySNOjdMxkA8yaprbuwRHFQv1nlGh%2FWjekj6EUFR2%2FO4HTsoKtSAkY0Mj1w1uf1w%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6zFjKXtYw but with a lower close pressure, and thread adapter if required. Am i dreaming?
    • That is a dead f**king short of B+ to ground. Scary.
    • 10-15 years ago, the answer would always be buy a good import motor and so many machine shops make.a hash of an engine rebuild, or they think they are some sort of RB magicians and want 40k.      Now as others have stated, you are buying a VERY old used motor. So rebuild is the correct answer.  Just finding a machine shop that will both do a good job and charge you a regular price is now your challenge.
