Great day.. thanks again Paul for organising it all!

Times were pretty slow, but good learning experience. Least it was cheap on the tyres..

Think that kitty litter is going to take a few weeks to fully shake out of my car though (late brake woops)

Yeah I had a good day just drifting around, bummer about the rain - I was keen to try and post some good times.

Had fun anyway.

Thanks again Paul and Tim.

My very patient girlfriend took heaps of photos so I'll post up a couple of good ones when I get them.

Yeah great day Paul / Tim I had plenty of fun especially coming on to the the front straight you get a lot of sidewards action there.

Just one thing thou that page you got with the track times on you should put these times we got today under its own section like a (Wet weather track day times) then if we have another wet day like today we then can try and bet them times.

Just a suggestion

Cheers

SirSkyline

btw whens the next one

He who creates bigger flame wins :P

Paul - great day thanks again. Anyone who owns a Skyline should come out for one of these days as they are great fun with a mix of cars and a great bunch of guys.

Rain = :D = Drift = :D

I love that pic! Might be time for some cat-out pipes for the next track day, I want flames!

Predator - yup sold the Grey GTSt and upgraded to the GTR but transferred the plates over. Which car were you in?

Disappointed not to conpare times between the 2 cars, however definately a totally different car to drive in the wet, so day wasn't a complete waste. Learnt the cars limits (and mine). Drifting a GTR in the wet is fun even if you do spin second corner on your warm up lap. oops :P

...that would be a good thing..... right(?) ;) ! Nothing compared to your mates rx7 though!!

I think it was the wet on the tyres.. does sound interesting though..don't often get to hear your car from the outside.

Some good shots in that selection of all you guys.

toy33.. ahh, makes sense now...you were getting some nice rich flammage out that back down the straights. I was in the black 32

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
