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.

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?

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
