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!!!

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
