Not quite Dave… His in favor of me going to tracks more often. I think having to sue Queensland Transport to get my license back pushed his keen-ness to keeping it too the tracks more often eh.

I reckon you could hey.

And well, its a porsche, its ment to be on the track. I'll go just to watch it.

Don't mean to NAG, but we need another 30 people to sign up as drivers or this day will not go ahead !!!

by which date you need to know by? looks like u'll need to get at least other clubs/regular track goers to go in this.

rental car is tempting option for me at the moment :)

The absolute deadline is for everyone to have paid me for the day 15 days out from the date. 7th May.

The problem is that I have not confirmed the booking yet as that means a deposit. And I won't do that until the day looks like going ahead and I have most the payments.

The down side is until I confirm the booking anyone else who wants to run a track day can rip the date out from under us with one phone call to me to confirm on the spot.

My other Track Day is on the Monday 9th May. Maybe we should merge with that date. Else I can open the Sunday date to my other regulars.

SmoothLine has put the effort into this day, I'm just helping out. So I'll wait and see what he thinks our next move should be.

I don't think its going to happen.

A sunday trackday in future I am sure could be organised, and would get quite a few more that can't otherwise make it to the mid-week days. A couple of my mates I mentioned this two were a lot more interested when I said it was a weekend, however for a couple of other reasons weren't willing to do it this time.

I reckon combining the day on Sunday would be a treat, as I am always struggling with work commitments during the week. Paul organises a great day!!

Problem is you have to book almost a year in advance to get a weekend day. This one only came up because of a cancellation. I asked them about how often a cancellation occurs and they said very rarely.

Even the week day bookings are hard to get. That's why I have book the years worth of dates already.

I will look more into the Warwick race track and also it will be great once the north coast track opens (bull dozers have not rolled yet, so don't get too keen)

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
