Well, Majanal's getting us organised for 19/12, but there is also a half day on 21/11. Come along and make sure you're not getting rusty.

I saw on the other thread that Roy was interested, anyone else coming along? If so, I'll get in touch with Motoconcepts.

It also looks like Steve from Disc Brakes Aus will be along, so it's a great chance to nag someone about all your brake questions:uh-huh:

Yeh for sure ill be there, fingers crossed its a cool day like today.

Need new tyres, getting Dunlop Formula Rs, pricey but everyone says they are the tyre to have.

I can get some AZENIS for $700 less (less than $1000), so i suppose the question is how much better are the Dunlops over AZENIS, and AZENIS over normal road tyres.

Hey Guys,

Just spoke to Tracey from motoconcepts regarding prices for the 19th of Dec. and I asked about how many she had booked for this day that Duncan is organising.

She ONLY has 6 cars booked at this stage.

This means that it is a really good oportunity to get along and have a day where there isn't much traffic.

This is good for young and old... I mean newbies and experienced guys.

Newbies can learn the track without constantly having to look in the rear view mirror to let faster cars past and the experienced guys can get out and have a blat with out having to flash lights at inexperienced drivers and commondoor's. Or, do as I shall be doing and get some serious sideways happening before the new set of treads goes on.

Speaking of treads, I have run azeins and will be at the track on thursday, we can chat about tyres as Duncan said.

Gotta go,

See you all thursday.

Dan.

:Oops: Yes, that is next Thur, 21 Nov (not 21/12!)

That makes:

1. Duncan

2. Kelly

3. Roy

4. Majanal

5. Fatz

6. Fatz's mate (!)

I'll get in touch with motoconcepts tomorrow.

I spoke to Dave this morning, and we are book for Thurs.

He did say he was only expecting about 20 cars all up, which means

1) Very little traffic, so it will be a great chance for first timers to get out there without idiots around you

2) Motoconcepts are unlikely to put on as many days unless numbers are up. It would be a shame to lose the best opportunity we have to make the most of our cars' performance.

If you've been considering a track day, this would be a great opportunity to goet out there.

Welcome, FLIP.

We'll be on the track from 1pm-5pm, you'll need to be there from around 12.30 to get organised, briefed, car emptied etc.

There's archived info on here (do a search) for what you need, but the quick summary is:

Long clothing (neck to ankle)

Full face helmet

current license (i think)

Roadworthy car (everything secured, empty cabin)

Let us know if its your first time at the track, we can help out with someone to how you around the place.

I think we'll be OK as far as notifying them, I booked for 6 this morning, but they're only expecting about 20 cars in a 40 capacity so we should be fine.

Dino, can we get a summary of trackday requirements and have it as a sticky in this forum?

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
