Guys,

I am happy to see your interested in motorvation and While it has driving events they are pretty much limited to go to whoa (accelerate as hard as you can

and then stop in a coned off box), salom and super cruise (bit of a burnout on the start and then cruise up the strip and the burnout session at night time.

I have been to motorvation a few years ago and well its not too bad. If you want club promotion (eg heaps of people around your stand) then your going to

need a a few scantily clad models that are happy reveal lots of flesh a lot of the time and hold a big party on the sat night with a spa or pool or something

of that sort. The other thing is be prepared to cop a lot of flack from the V8 boys mullet wearing and not. This is their turf and we are still seen as

invaders in rice burners.

I believe the SAUWA council and me personally is not towards providing this type of image of our club and believe our resouces are better spent providing

better events for you and other options such as MC.

However on a personal note. IF you guys want to enter Motorvation under a Skylines banner (not SAUWA) then I am right behind you if you need any help on how

the event goes, how to get into the top 70 tent (very cool) or general info then please give me a pm and I will e-mail my details to you and help you where

I can. I have at home, event registration forms, timetable, tips on well how to stand out from the crowd and as well as the "unnofficial" rules of the event.

Good luck

Paul

Well personally we need to sit down a plan out what we need, Eg. display wise

We need to know who is in and out Start a list I would personally say cut off point for ppl to enter should be 31st Aug that should give some time to get some ppl I have a friend with a r31 I think he might be interested and im sure my other friend with his MR2 will be in.

If we enter as a group who should we enter as......

Make up a name?

Add me to msn if you want to chat

"[email protected]"

or pm me

Its ok sneeza im sure he knows or we all do about how much time and money you guys throw into this club I think he said that because we are dissapointed but if you would let us can we fly the flag for the club

Exactly, just saying it is the biggest/best show in WA (IMO) and caters for all cars, bla, bla...just sorta seems like you guys are chickening out from the V8 boys (even if this is not the case)

Ok We need to compile a list guys of who's going

Also because we arnt going under SAU We need a Group name So your imput is needed.

Do you have any objections to other cars comming, Because I rang my friend with the MR2 he is up for it also there is a guy with a rx7 (S5) that is also up for it.

So if you dont mind then ask some friends.

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
