Those who attended the last one will know what a fun day these are. It is a great opportunity to get your car on the track in a controlled environment and learn alot about yourself, your car and what you can do.

Cost: only $140 members, $160 non-members

Payment: by Direct deposit/transfer or cash deposit ONLY into the SAU NSW account,

Bank: NAB

Account name:Skylines Australia NSW

BSB:082-356

Account Number:54-639-3766

Your payment will secure your spot and will be how we tally who has entered. YOU MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME/SIG IN THE COMMENTS SECTION WHEN PAYING.

Please send an email to Tosh with your name and car details when you pay. (We need this info beforehand for the timing guy).

What you get: Our track days usually get you 3 morning sessions of 20 minutes, lunch time go to whoa and drift and an open session in the afternoon where amount of track time is up to you. You also get access to professional drivers for tips, an ambulance is present and professional timing and print outs throughout the entire day.

Passengers: Passengers are allowed in specific sessions, members free, non-members $10 (also need a license and helmet)

What else you need: Helmet, enclosed shoes, long pants and sleeves, a wakefield park license or a CAMS L2S license or higher.

How to enter:

Download the Track Day Guide.

Post questions below or email Tosh (tosh (at) skylinesaustralia (dot) com) or Dino (red900ss (at) skylinesaustralia (dot) com) for your entry form.

This day is strictly numbers limited to ensure good track time and no spots are reserved until payment is made in full.

ok so I emailed tosh and he linked me to that guide you have linked up there.

There is no mention of SAU on it. Do we just cross out RENEW and REACT and write SAU? Do we get the $145 member price?

Are any SAUers going to this day? It wont be fun without other Skylines :D

Adam, just bring your form on the day. As long as we have payment (don't forget your name on the deposit!) you are booked :D

Anthony, like Jordan said you just get them at the office on the day, at it is valid for the year.

Should be a great day out, especially for any beginners looking at giving it a first go ont he track in a friendly environment. Those who went along to the last one had a great time ;)http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=52715

So we pay SAU but where do we send the form?

Good point Adam, 1st post clarified. :D

Please make sure you all send an email to Tosh with your name and car details when you pay. Like Duncan said just bring the form on the day.

im thinking of coming.

it sounds fun...it will be my first time though.

A few Q's i want to ask

If i come with a passenger who has a license too...Can i let him take turns on going to the track with my car?....without the $160?

Is there shelter area for onlookers?

As far as i know , if he wants to drive he has to pay the $160.

there is a shelter , where you park you car and also another little garage along the straight, and then the " house" like thing that the officals stand around.

Yes, he can take turns in your car but will have to pay the entry fee.

Is there shelter area for onlookers?

There's some near the straight from memory, and lots in the garage areas.

Please let us know ASAP E_Lu-SHuN, thanks.

:P

Wakefield License is $20 I think...and if you dont have a helmet you gotta hire one for another $20.......

Wish I could make it out to this event....especially cause its on a weekend too !!!

on a SAT no less !!!!

but I got some tuning issues to be sorted out !!! cant even run 0.6 bar of boost consistently !!!! :P

Yeah guys its $40 for the wakefield licence and it lasts a year. well at least when i got mine last time. also before i started driving at the track events i was being a passenger and i was also required to have a licence for that. Not sure if thats still the case but it used to be. :-)

Damn i'd so be in for this but my tyres (same as the last Wakefield day tyres I used) are down to their wear markers :P

Edit. I know my mum would be up for another drive too, hrmm maybe we can sneak a HWP car out for the day :P

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
