Paulie,

At this point in time, Skylines Australia QLD Club is not CAMS affiliated. With our small member base, that is ever increasing, theres not really enough of us to have that option yet.

It has been previously discussed for us to become CAMS affiliated, but with no CAMS tracks in QLD, we didn't really see the point of it at this point in time.

Regards,

Erin.

Surely you guys have sprints and hillclimbs run under CAMS permits?  I know Qld raceway have their own insurance but there must be other events thru CAMS?

Yeah I think there are a few, such as Gatton St Sprints are from memory. Is dutton rally as well? Cant remember, but there are a few.

I'm pretty sure Mt Cotton hill climb and Noosa hill climb are CAMS events. Similarly, if you wanted to progress to full class racing, a CAMS license is required. The track does not need to be a CAMS track to run a CAMS event.

If there is appropriate demand for the club to become cams affiliated then it will be re assesed but as of the last time it was discussed there was little to no interest in people obtaining cams licences. Most of our members will never do any more than the odd track day at Qld Raceway which as pointed out, has its own insurance. While it may be an attraction to future members currently we have not had the members nor the interest in the club to warrant it.

As was said before, the club is growing and the decision we made on the cams affiliation is not a final decision, it will be re assessed in the near future as is the case with most things regarding the club.

If you feel the qld club should obtain cams affiliation please email any one of the club exec and we will take into consideration your request when we next discuss this matter. Alternativly members of sau-qld who wish to see the club become cams affiliated should get in contact with one of the club exec and make it known that you wish for your club to become affiliated.

As was stated earlier, previously only 2 or 3 people had expressed interest in obtaining a cams licence through the club had it been available to them. This was seen as evidence of a lack of desire or need of a cams licence by most if not all members of the club which was the main basis for our previous decision on the matter.

sparc was still active when i last checked, however i let my cams licence lapse as i havent used it and didnt plan on doing anything till my car was in better readieness for it.

i do know they were having a bit of financial trouble a while back, but afaik they were still running. there is also a list of cams car clubs on the cams website.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
