Hey Guys,

Well there seems to be a BIG gap between Drive days at Eastern Creek. This one looks to be the last oportunity to get one in before the new year rolls around.

I will contact Dave Stone during the week to see if we can get a little more off the group booking rate but I think I'll be going along to this one anyway.

If your keen to join me then start posting up here. As usual I'm shooting for 15 definates to form our own group, but if we can get 30 then we have not only enough for 2 groups, but we will have the biggest turnout ever at Eastern Creek. A meet of this size may just call for a magazine of some sort to be called in.

Anyway, let me know.

Dan.

just to clarify......im after the December 19th track day.

im sure i can get about 7ppl including myself to go.

its a full day as far as i know and its on the motor concept calender already.

cost atm is est at $145 im hoping it'll go down to $130'ish.

so can the fearless leader please stand up (cuz slimshady said so) and org it please......

OK guys,

I spoke to Tracey Yesterday and she said that if we can get 15 ppl together than we can work out some sort of a discount. Last time I think we had it at $120 if we got 15 ppl.

So far we have:

1. Majanal (GTS)

2. mrthorpedo (GTS)

3. red900ss (GTS) You better not ditch me again!

4 - 10. ManNgolf plus another 6

11. Merli (GTS) ?

So come on, cos red and merli are only maybe's at this stage. this means that we need 6 more. Fatz, Bonkers, Oz, Silver, Prank, Jason GTR, Kabab and all the others that normally come along?

Let get this happening.

Red. the half day I have to work, but let me guess, you have it off right?

Cheers,

Dan.

It's been a long time between drinks so count me in. Already have the day off so let's make this a big one to end the year.

Also have a mate with a 180SX who is mighty keen to wear down the rears. And another with a VR-X Magna who wants to throw it around a racetrack before selling it, he will probably be there. Only count him as 50%, it is a magna after all.

Oz ( Paul ) is a 95% chance of making it as well.

Now if I can only get a few hours free to install that pesky bleed valve.:P

Z.

Im back in Syd end of Nov, anyone going to the half day 21/11?

I am back OS 01/12 but should be back in Syd 17/12/02 so put me down for both 21/11 & 19/12/02. (Yet to confirm available seats for return flight with airline)

Only ever done track days in winter months. Do summer temps knock the car around two fold? Might get an oil cooler if this is the case.

I'll be down there to get some shots only. I'm working the night before and don't want to drive at high speeds half a sleep. Besides the car's got one to many problems now. I'll forward the message to my other mates.

ok,

So far we have:

1. Majanal (GTS)

2. mrthorpedo (GTS)

3 - 9. ManNgolf plus another 6

10. Prank

11 - 12. Zane + 1

13. Roy

14. Kel and Duncan

15. ??????

Maybe's:

Merli

Zane's magna mate.

Oz (95%) Come on buddy!

XrSiSt

That is only one short... come on, who is gonna step up to the plate?

Fatz you Poof, are you coming?

Good way to wake up Silver.

If my car is f@#ken ready by then I'll come, just so I can have a get together with fatz over a couple of pints afterwards.

Yeah, but you have to wear a pink shirt and put on L plates.:P  

Just kidding. All are welcome.

Can anyone lend me some L plates ?? I have a pink shirt :D :D :D :D

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
