Man, its my first time around the QR Clubman circuit also. All my previous track experience is up at Morgan Park. Also be a good test of the next version of the timing gear, I have added a speed reading to the lap times.

One of the GTR's has side pipes (for the track) that exit just in front of the passenger side rear tyre, man does that sound sweet under full noise.

should be a blast.. just need to get the fluid flushed and some nice DOT stuff put in there, and I will be ready to hit the track by wednesday! (yes wednesday :D)

I will be slowest out there, but not too fussed :( Will be good practice for when the other car is ready to really mix it out there.

Hey guys and gals,

I've never been to a track day before, only had my skyline about a month,

...So what is the deal, how is the day run? Does everyone get a certian number of laps? I guess there is no wheel to wheel racing, just time trials?

Does it matter how modded (fast) your car is?

Scrutineering (spelling?), what is the deal there?

I'm really keen to come along to the next one,

Sprint days are run by Queensland Raceway under the auspices of AASA which is a similar organisation to CAMS.

Level 1 sprints are open to anyone with a mechanically sound car, scrutineering is on an honour system. You are not expected to turn up with an unsound car ie mechanical problems, rust,oil leaks etc. If you do you will not be welcome back. You must have 3 point seatbelt as a minimum, helmet and long sleeve top, long leg pants and shoes. A valid drivers license and you will need an AASA Clubman licence ,cost $50 for 12 months.

Level 1 sprint event consists of usualy 3 lots of 5 laps, a group of 8 or 9 cars is on the track at any one time, overtaking is allowed.

pre entry is required entry forms available on the Queensland Raceway web site. The 1.89km sprint track is used.

Level 2 sprint is by invitation, you will be sent an entry form. Generally you must complete 3 or 4 L1 sprints to qualify for L2. The 2.11km Clubman track is used

The format is similar 3 warmup laps, 5 qualifying laps then 2 lots of 5 laps with a 3rd time permitting. there are other events needing an upgraded licence.

The Wed track day is slightly different in that is a private event ie not open to the general public unlike the normal L1 and L2 sprint days. see www.queenslandraceway.com.au dor details,dates and entry forms,

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
