Even with all those cars PIARC still moved through the groups at a rapid pace.

Good to see everyone around.

I hate two moments during the day, which in the end damaged the front splitter.

This on I was a little disappointed about as it could have been avoided with a little more consideration from the other car.

Chris and I were just crusing around on a cool down waiting for a gap, then blamb!

Woweee

Looks he just got in front of you then smashed the brake pedal lol

The day was fantastic, well worth the drive from Geelong, what an eye opener it was, good to get an insight before completely jumping into the deep end, hope to be entered in round 3. I got some photos, nothing fancy just lots of skyrice :)

HA!

skyrice :)

I had an alright day in the end with battling mechanical issues on the day but still managed to set a fairly respectable time of 1:56.6. Was slower than my PB but was still good to get back out there and have some fun.

Looking forward to Round 2 and hopefully the car will be sorted properly by then. :)

Damn that was a stupid move. What were they lapping at?

Gaad daaam ameriaaans.

I didn't do many laps, spent most of the time socialising.

The good lap that I did get in was a 1.44.4

Agreed... Totally stupid.

Was that Madden behind you as well Richo? Looks like he got put well out of place as well...

Could've easily been two cars fairly well destroyed because of nothing other than a total dick move.

Yeh Chris saw what was happening and bailed wide just in-case and went straight through the corner.

All the guy had to do was keep his inside line.

Hi all,

Thanks to everyone who helped put the day togethter.It was good to catch up with people I hadn't seen for ages and check out their new toys.

Had an awsome couple of days and got the car home in one piece which is always good, Thanks Chris and the boys at Racepace.Hope to get to the next one

and do it all again. Cheers.

From natsoft I can see 23 SAU vic members, do we have any other SAU members who put themselves down under another club?

Yeah me! :)

I think I was in under PSCRV membership as I had that most handy at the time.

Sadly I didn't get a flying lap on Sunday (only Blaise got a session) but had a blast on Sat in the new little machine. Will be back out again soon.

:sick: Really happy I missed this one!

Haha if it makes you feel any better John, I don't have any GoPro footage to rub it in! But I'm sure the other guys can make up for it ;)

Actually I do! Damn GoPro battery died as I rounded the final corner on my next best lap (1:52.1504 vs 1:52.1412 so close enough!). A 51 seems so close...

Well I've had a lot of practice, that was my 13th day at the Island in 1.5yrs :D

Google Nexus wireless charger. Nexus 5 has metal discs in the chassis and charger has the magnets. Hasn't moved in daily driving, reefton runs or track.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
