Happy Laps - Queensland Raceway 27-10-13


Recommended Posts

To whom it may concern ... dropped the oil... no metal...... shifter out. All it was was the tinest of plates that holds the shifter in place was bent..... some gentle "massage" as natro puts it saw it right... until I can get another one fabbed up

Good to hear it was simple! Didn't I say that? It might be something simple in the selector? real good to hear.

Anyone get vids? I saw a bajillianty GoPros.

they always take time to upload. Also looking forwards to these

Of all the weird dumb-ass things to happen on a track day... My high level brake light is cracked.

So you have the word BRAKE lit up on your dash? my kombi did this years ago because the pedal sank to far under hard braking.

was a sweet as day and a good bunch of drivers,no incidents and a good bloody time by all,even mixed it up with an r8 audi and the f$%#@n alsome r35,you could say i had a good time,but it would be an understatment,well done sau,another great event,didnt even miss the tug boats(supras).

good to hear you enjoyed yourself. As did I, been a while since I had that much fun at QR, clubman is a good layout, and my brakes survived....just.

Wow, ask and ye shall receive! Incidentally, did anyone notice that I went totally the wrong way the first lap? Like through the closed off bit? LOL.

lol, did not notice that.

Thanks for the pics Grego!

and as I mentioned yesterday, I'm more than happy to pay more for Lakeside to reduce the number of cars and make sure we at least break even

Happy laps was happy :D

Will try and get around to adding photos and video tonight. Got some good capture in the last 15 minutes as I tailgated people.

You should have some mad abomb footage on there :D

Yes I do, but thought I didn't recorded it at first, was disaponed but found it lol

Yay :) keen to see if it's actually loose or if it just feels like it's sliding all over the shop lol

Haha good, means there's more left in it :)

(In the car it feels like it's squirming all over the place, especially through the second half of turn 1)

Mine is stable as fark until I try and put power down on the corner exit...then she gets loose.

I saw you get a little sideways a few times

NO, like I mean that the actual light itself, above the rear hatch, has a crack in it. How does that even HAPPEN?

well that sucks :(

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
