the Aaron Phase 3 day sounds the same as a UAS day, no real formal instruction, but instructors on hand if needed.

yep, that's exactly what it's like. except that it's a bit less formal. ie, no grouping of cars into fast/slow etc. just get out there and drive!! this way you get a lot of track time. also they have proper, door handle to door handle races at the end of the day for people that A. think they are good or B. are going for a C3 licence.

I had Aaron spend some time with me in the GTR and it was time and money well spent.

hey guys,

First of all, big ups to Adam and Jaala, as this is pretty much their baby!!!! well done. A great success!

Congratulations also go out to all of the other helpers Merli, Mars & partner, Duncan & Kel, Dan & partner, Neil & Partner, the guys that helped with the selling of raffle tickets (sorry didnt get their names), my cousin Dejan (who got ropped into helping by myself, but enjoyed the day thoroughly), anyone else i missed and the organisational people that have put in leading upto and on the actual day.........and im sure the others that will put in as part of the closure of the event.

also what an effort by all the forum members who made it from near and far (that guy from wagga.........jesus what an effort!!). we had a huge (nearing on 100!!) and extensive range of skylines and various other models! without you guys making an effort on the day it wouldnt have been such a success.

thanks to the sponsors who stayed all day along with their demo cars!!! great to see!

i really enjoyed the day and helping out made it so much more fun.

and i hope the guys (sorry didnt catch the name) that i helped push out of the mud, and the other guy i helped push out of the ditch enjoyed their day too!!!

thanks again to everyone!

Jason, nice to meet you on Sunday... Sorry I didn't get to talk to you properly, I was extremely stressed about making sure all the cars were entered into the judging sheets... Next time for sure!

I think we should REALLY stress the importance of pre-entry next year. It would have made things run so much smoother and the judging would have been much faster too!

Anyway, please pass on a HUGE thanks to Dejan for helping me out with preparing the judging sheets, I appreciated it more than he could ever imagine :uh-huh: :D

we didn't pre-enter due to the fact we didn't know if we were going to make it.....but judging should have commenced as soon as the first car was parked and ready to be looked at (my 2 cents)

      I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.

      That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 馃挭馃徏 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...

      Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz 路 Posted

      I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
