Happy Laps - Queensland Raceway 19-09-15


Recommended Posts

how dos this work if you are only allowed to do 120km hr? From the vidoes ive see on utube it looks like ppl are going faster?

QR rules say 120 max. Their insurance won't allow them to let us go any faster. If you've seen videos of people going faster in sure to can figure out why ;)

Feel free to pm me if you require further clarification.

Michael, can my brother drive his 180SX? Pay on the day obviously since it's tomorrow.

Sure, anyone is welcome in any car as long as it meets QR's standards.

It was a good laps session indeed. Pity we had to do the Clubman circuit and not the National. I really like the turn two and back straight combo to get a good head of steam going. I did get a little excited at one point and go for it forgetting that it was the Clubman layout, had to drive around turn three on my own like a potato.

Did anyone else double-up on Saturday and do the Roll Racing at night as well? I raced a few Skylines but not sure if it was anyone from here. I saw Noel but didn't recognise anyone else. Would have loved to race Noel's car just for shits and giggles.

    • He has an aftermarket hanger, it just sounds like your setup is much better then his.  It doesn't sound crazy at all to me, to install an aftermarket hanger and end up backwards compared to the factory setup.  Have a look at the tiny sock/filter/pickup on his fuel pump, surely the factory item is much much longer and I bet, better positioned as well. 
    • Why are people so insistent on making dirty water?!
    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
