I will be there for sure, not quite sure if I will be racing though. Sounds like it will be another fun track day :P

The form says the car must not exceed the road legal noise volume, I am pretty sure my car does. Roy has an externally vented gate as I recall and he was at the last Maserati track day at Sandown. So will they let it slide?

$175 paid by today, $200 paid after today.

OUCH ... sure make the wrx club sprints looks cheap ...

Yeah Maserati Club is for over-paid poofs that wear womens panties on their heads.

:P

(Thank god my car doesn't need any work on it for a little while!)

hey until you can carry Rb26's on your shoulder you can't talk!!!

(yep my car does need work)

HAHA who is going from SAU.

I will make you a deal, I will stop being soft if you pay the $200 entry fee :P

Just think of it as if you dont run at sandown those nice new semi comps will be wasted until feb next year, which is the next event of the callender

But by that time next year I will still have lots or rubber on them if I dont go and an extra $200 in my pocket. Might give it a miss, few other events coming up that I will need some spare cash for.

Be careful how and where you store them. I may be over reacting but they do harden and go off if not being used. So try and make sure they are in a cool dark place.

Hate to see you rock up to a track day in 5 months time with what looks to be healthy rubbe ronly to find they have as much grip as tonka tyres.

Has anyone got any facts when it comes to storing these types fo tyres?

Thanks mate, I probably wont go for more than 2 months without using them for at least a weekend. They are still on the car now anyway and will be until I can get another set of rims for the wet weather tires :)

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
