I have a PAID spot for the Driver Training Session @ Sandown this Sunday if anyone would like to attend. You will need a CAMS L2 licence (I think you can get this on the day if you are an SAU Vic member) I have waited untill today to advertise this as I was still holding on a lil glimmer of hope my car would be on the road by then... this is not to be.

Not 100% sure if a swap can be done in this way but it would be a shame to waste... anyone even considering doing some track work in the near future should do this course.

BTW IT'S A FREE SPOT not asking for any money.

Free spot hey!? The rex could use another track bashing. I'd be happy to take you around as a passenger! I was going to be there all day anyways helping people out!

Sold to the frosty look'en fella down the back gettin a-head in life!

I will make my way down on the day and will hold you to the offer of a ride round the track. Should I get in contact with Nissan Datsun to let them know about the swap? Or do you think it could all be sorted on the day?

Yeah I was actually going to say I have done heaps of stuff and will happily let anyone else that wants to do it take Robin's/my spot. I said I was going to be helping out as a passenger for a bunch of guys here anyways on the day - but if no-one else wants to take his place then I surely will.

It's OK, I'm watching. But who ever takes your place will need to fill out and sign the application form, for legal purposes (insurance, etc).

You have obviously considered getting another car for the day?

Thats a good point greg - you can take out ANY car robyn. Doesn't have to be the GTR. I did a Murcott motorsport training day and 2 guys in deisel rodeo utes spent the day having a ball around Sandown. Was damn funny.

I have taken my daily driver out before at Winton. Didn't do the sidewalls a lot of good but it was still a lot of fun. Thats what I was going to use if I took your spot cause my GTR is in the workshop.

well if u dont want it i know i need some training... can i bring the ceffy now its road worthy again???
You can bring a Kenworth truck if it's roadworthy! Well, not quite.

Why not come down and enter anyway. It really is value for money, at just $85. Considering the Maseratti day the following week is $125, you might get 12 laps on that day. This day, you will probably get that in your first session on the track, and you should get 3 or 4 sessions on the day. Plus the added benefit of an instructor to help point you in the right direction.

Snowman: haven't those wrx tyres had enough roll on them already :D

i'd take the place if its inark/snowman dont take it - i didn't sign up since i wasn't sure if my car would have a gear box, it does now... not fussed either way, ill probably still come down for a watch regardless

I'm happy for Inark to get the ride if Snowman has had heaps of track work already and since Snowman has said it's coll already consider it Inarks ride (are you gon'na give me a few laps as passenger in the cheffy?)

And as for getting my hands on another car? I have no other car and I would really only have the option of mum's or sisters cars... don't think they would be thrilled with that!

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
