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

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?

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
