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.

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
