Seems to be quite a few 200sx's joining track days in Vic... Great stuff. I'll be coming back to the track next year, looking forward to mixing it up with you guys

You are banned from entering Simon. If the evo was tuned I would be booked in already. Seems our WRX organiser is also my new LiquiMoly rep. He was keen to see the yellow peril on the track. Perhaps

R33's have a double latched setup from factory... you could pull the bonnet release cable at 200kph and it wouldn't fly open...
Of course you're more than welcome to make your own additional restraint with a carrabeana and a loop of wire to secure it further.

Edit: I would be running the additional if I had an aftermarket bonnet, carbon fibre, bracing removed, or something like that which could allow the bonnet to flex more than normal

Hi guys, I have been reading the supp regs and the cams manual and just want some help with one thing.

Do I need to run an extra bonnet restraint cable or is the factory latch ok??

Cheers

Luke

You should be ok, a long as it has the two methods of fastening.

They can be a bit picky on after market bonnets though.

Not required. Just eat and be merry.

Squires Loft Nunawading is supplying the food at cost and cooking/extras for free. In return SAU-Vic picks up the raw food bill on members behalf as it's a Members Only BBQ - one of the many member perks!

Great too see so many faces around.

Yes I did try and remove the speed limiter from the Evo. Only to have the battery go flat...

The speed limiter is gone now and car working fine. (Frkn Evo's)

Thanks too Squires for the food, amazing as always.

Not sure what others thoughts were, but this day ran better than previous days of late.

Bearing in mind a wrx dumped oil and some chev driver painted the armco.

There is a discussion in the champ thread about the 30th of August at Winton. Get in there and have ur say.

Obviously gutted for members with day ending issues

But yeah, excellent day, started to run so quickly at the end that my car couldn't take it anymore and I believe quite a few were setting PBs etc, big crowd, excellent food - missus complaining I'm getting fed to well, what diet :-)

Was a much better day, even if i didn't make full use of it. Some minor attention this week and I'll be sorted. :)

100 cars, awesome. 120+ cars, shithouse.

Day was run perfectly compared to the other 4 rounds so far this year, which the oversubscribed side was pretty much the cause.

Let's hope it continues!

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      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".

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      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.
