well it looks like i will be able to make it. i've been able to move forward one of the interviews to this afternoon.

now i better get my sh1t ready tonight. if not, who wants to help bleed my brakes at the track? :(

BB,

Good news, I happy to push the brake pedal for you if needed.

All lit looks like we will have 5 on the day.

Myself, BB, AZZR32, yogi and Ralph (S15 Friend).

Lets have some fun, reguardless of the weather!

not long to go now. it looks like i may be able to get done the stuff i need to do tonight. If not, I may take you up on that offer paul :(

what time is scrutineering?

well i just finished what i wanted to do. I've bled the brakes. checked the oil etc and even installed my new castor rods. I don't have time for a wheel allignment so i just did it by eye/feel. I think the castor may not be quite even, but i did measure them pretty accurately. It feels heaps better. much sharper turn in, and the wheel self centres quite aggressively. steering is quite a bit heavier, but it's certainly bareable.

hmm, i had better get some sleep, i may be a little late fellas (9:30 ish) apparently there is no scrutineering though so it shouldn't be a problem. :angry:

see you boys at the track!

WTF I thought I heard Skylines today while I was at work but I couldn't figure out why. I work right near Eastern Creek and went outside and thought I heard a GTR, then I heard more of them and so I was wondering what was going on. Glad I'm not imagining things...

Im interested in the 29th - is anyone going to that one???

It will be my first time on the Eastern Creek track, from the map on the website it looks like a lot of fun

Can you apply for the licence at the track ?

I had a mate go today, in his Camaro... did you guys see it? :(

Anyway hopefully it was a good day, I heard that an Evo8 rolled it?

yeah i saw it. black one. looked nice as i went past it hehe :(

yeah a few cars were coming off. track was pretty green after the rain earlier in the week.

Except for Yogi's little incidednt in the first 5 min, it was a good day (Just goes to show crap tyres have no place on a race track). Accidents and hold ups did make for a long day and not enough drive time in my mind, but again thats the worst thing about these days, they take their time to clean the track after incidents and with that many race team there are bound to be a few spin off's.

No pics and no lap times but Im sure every had a great time. I think we got ralph hooked on drive days as well.

So I take it you guys had more fun than all other Sydneysiders on Saturday.

N1GTR,,,you can sign up on the day but it'd a little trickie. The ARDC and CAMs don't like us doing it and I can't guarantee you'll be allowed.Why not download the form from cams and send it in. Theres still time buddy.

I'm up for the 29th,EC diffs now in,gearbox is repaired and rear suspension has been freshened up.

Neil.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
