After the last EOI (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/416591-eoi-simworld-2013/#entry6688024) died I'd see if we can organise another SimWorld event!

So - We (SAUWA) is thinking of holding another Social Event at Simworld in Carousel after the huge success of the previous events. Everyone had a great time at the last couple events although there have been a couple inflicted with motion sickness so its quite a ride

For those who don't know what SimWorld is check it out at http://www.simworld.com.au/ These are full simulators, where you get thrown about etc, nothing like anything you've done before.

The general format of the event is:

Group 1 - 5min Practice - Course 1
Group 2 - 5min Practice - Course 1
Group 1 - 10min Race 1
Group 2 - 10min Race 1
Group 1 - 5min Practice - Course 2
Group 2 - 5min Practice - Course 2
Group 1 - 10min Race 2
Group 2 - 10min Race 2
Group 1 - 5 min practice - course 3
Group 2 - 5 min practice - course 3
Group 1 - 10min Race 3
Group 2 - 10min Race 3
Final - 15min Race (combined results from Race 1, 2, 3 & 4 will determine who is in the finals)
* Minimum race time should be about an hour
** Comes with food supplied by Nandos or we can have pizza plus we can have BYO drinks
*** Group size is 9, as there are 9 Simulators

Note:
The costs approximately $65 if we choose nandos or pizza or $50 without food but I would imagine majority will want food so everyone will have to pay $65

The a full race simulators, not simple arcade games, so it will definately be an experience.

Friday nights we will get the longest time on the machines for our money and its been convenient for most people in the past. Maybe the 13th or the 20th of September might be a go-er?

Please register your interest ASAP, so we can make this event happen. Please invite family members (friends, wives, older kids etc), as all Simulators are equal, and doesn't require a drivers license We'd like to have this filled with SAUWA Members and there familys/friends, but seeing as we didn't get enough interest I'll open it up to the rest of SAU from the get go.

So far

* Trevz
* Lachy (Hank Scorpio)

* Gary

* Damo (Frosty)





Cheers
Hank

Btw hanky they didn't have skylines available last I heard

:O

What happened to our R34 race at Tsukuba!?!

Anyway I'm confident of numbers now, will try and contact SimWorld this week :)

Sorry about the lack of replies guys, that's completely my fault, I do apologize.

"We have moved the machines down to the Albany Amusement Centre (formerly Albany Ten Pin Bowling)"


So SimWorld seems to be a no go, any other ideas you guys would like me to look into?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
