Damn, should have put my name down earlier.

Let me know if any spots become available.

Hi Mate,

As a back up plan you can always do Nth Circiut with us -

http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/457132-18th-october-smsp-north-circuit-interclub-track-day-limited-offer/

So far 6 or 7 of the guys from this track day are in! :yes:

Just out of curiosity and cause I've never been to a track day before. What does everyone bring?

in my case, a tow truck.

but srsly, a seat, bottles of water, some food, any spares or tools you think you may need.

And of course, helmet, and suitable clothes.

Hey guys I know a lot of you are not new to track days and will know what I'm talking about but for the newbies I will be outlining what will be expected when you come see myself and others in the scrutineering shed

First things first empty your car of all loose objects, don't want to have things rolling around in the car

This will include the drivers floor mat for worst case scenario of it catching on the pedals.

While we are inside we will check your seat belts for condition, standard belts are fine no need to splash out for a harness but each to their own

Fire extinguisher is next which will need to be securely mounted WITHIN REACH of the driver, which means if you cant reach it while seated it needs to be moved.

Also make sure your fire extinguisher is within the green band on the gauge for obvious reasons

There are guides floating around the forum of where and how to mount in skylines

Next up is checking for any leaks present on your vehicle

This is pretty self explanatory, make sure there is no oil, water, power steering etc leaks present otherwise no tracks for you

At the same time we will be checking other components within the engine bay to make sure everything is in a roadworthy condition and doesn't present a hazard

Battery will be checked next for security so it won't move under super late braking and super crazy g forces

Factory restraint is fine for this

That basically covers the car now we move onto YOU!!

We check that you are wearing clothes that cover you from ankle to wrist so long pants long sleeve shirt closed shoes (sorry mateetee no hot pants and heels)

At scrutineering we will be checking your helmet is Australian certified should have a silver and sticker AS1698 eg

59822938-4E24-41D4-A6DF-8D7811B029CD.jpg

This is minimum standard

And make sure it is in good condition no cracks etc

If you have any questions feel free to PM me and I'll try help you out

See you all on the day in the scrutineering shed!!!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
