Yuki Izumida D1 Looking To Have A Drive In Jan 2015

Yuki Izumida of D1 fame and his close friend Kazumasa Yakushi ( known for his skills at drifting Toyota MR2's) will be in NSW from 11th of January 2015 till the 16th of January 2015 to attend the MR2 Trackday Challenge with a (possible)Grip and Slide day. Both events at Wakefield Park.

As the organiser of the MR2 Trackday (and yes its more than MR2) I have managed to organise these two drift pilots from Japan to fly over to have some fun. I have decided to offer to subsidise their trip so they could attend. I have also allocated a few sessions over the two day event for drift sessions. Turns out Izumida has been to Australia on a few occasions so some people will know him. I would like to know if there are people out there who would like to offer these guys a car, a passenger run or some interested in some driving tips for a few sessions at this event. I would like to offer a deal to enter the two day trackday for the drift and some grip sessions will be $150. Accommodation, garage, bbq is an extra.

As I am looking closely into a third day for grip and slide anyone interested in joining please let me know so I can make sure this is viable trackday.

Cost per entry will be around $200 for 30 cars. Wakefield 9pm-4pm.

    • I do think it's weird I had it for 2 weeks then the issue came up out of nowhere and progressively got worse. I would've imagined changing everything in the ignition system would've resolved any ignition related misfires but still has the high rpm and idle misfires that seem unchanged. I would've thought if it was fuel related it would happen all the time unless it's the pump losing pressure when it gets hot. If it was the ecu I would think it would do it all of the time.  Something I noticed when I had it all apart was a pretty decent coating of oil in the J pipe coming from the throttle body. The weird thing about that is the pcv that goes to the intake is blocked off. So that has me wondering if the oil is coming from the turbo because that's the only thing that could get oil in there. This thing does sound like it spools like a mofo like I'm a former dsm guy and the only stock turbo I've ever heard spool this loud (to only go up to about 5psi) is on a diesel truck. And the recirculated bov is really loud too I had a TurboXS RFL and this thing is just as loud and being so low on psi seems a little weird. I don't know if any of this is or isn't related but just trying to make sure I'm not leaving any potentially helpful information out. 
    • So latest update. I replaced the ignitor with a jspec unit from enjuku. It felt a lot better at first although it is a little bit cooler of a day than it has been. Warming up didn't have as much misfire sputtering as before. Went on a 10m test drive. Felt good, a lot stronger though I was taking it easy on the boost. On the return trip started getting the cutting out at higher rpm again and was getting worse the longer I was driving. Took it easy the rest of the way home. Before turning the car off was getting the normal idle sputtering I was getting before.  So where I'm at now, entire ignition system has been replaced with upgraded components. Plugs still gapped at .8mm. Removed the fuel cap in case it was building too much reverse pressure I'm the tank, didn't help at all. Now I'm still on the same tank of gas the fuel treatment was in, I'm thinking if I can run that out and then refill with fresh 93 maybe  the treatment is too concentrated in some areas but doesn't explain that it only does it once the car is warm. I'm leaning towards fuel pump or injectors but if the injector was clogging I don't think it would make it shut off like it has but then fire right back up like nothing happened. So my current guess would be the pump. Without a fuel pressure guage no way to test or check it while it's running.  So that's kind of where I'm at. Need to start testing fuel components and ecu/wiring but I'm at a loss of what's the next logical step and procedure for testing it. 
    • @niZmO_Man thanks for that info, lucky I bought the gktech ones 🤙.
    • Never cheap out on brakes, tyres, suspension. I learnt the hard way at Oran Park lol
