Happy Laps - Queensland Raceway 22-03-14


Recommended Posts

I more than likely will be coming (to this and the tuned performance dyno),

none of friends invited have committed as yet,

and hopefully the repair cost for the intermittent misfire on the silvia doesn't blow all my spending money.

Doesnt matter what you bring,as long as your there,just a great morning,i find these happylaps better than the ds ones,but thats just my opinion.

not long now,checked all my intake pipes and hoses,cleaned out the throttle body,and cam cover,took it for a quick squirt to make sure every thing was ok,now only have to wash,fuel up,and ill be ready to roll.Only way to keep reliable is by doing regular checks.ps,also did an oil change and filter,just because.

If you like actually going a decent pace around a track they are far better than the DS ones.

I did my first DS on the weekend, was good but to many cars, and also developed shuddering through steering when braking down from high speed. Any ideas I believe it could be rotors? Will hopefully get it in before Saturday's fun.

Is it really bad shuddering? I get some slight shuddering after my rotors heat up but as soon as I get on the road they are perfectly fine again.

List updated with cleared payments. If you haven't paid yet please DO NOT pay into our account now as it may not clear and be confirmed by saturday, just bring cash (preferably correct please) on the day.

Yeh only at high speed, and yeh seemed to be after about 45mins of driving plenty of heat.Driving back home at 100/110 seemed ok. Spoke to my mechanic tonight he reckons rotors more than likely, and i might get some new pads aswell.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
