ive done a 1.19 in my car

a 1.15 in my mates 350z and he did a 1.12 in it......

Is your mate's 350Z stock? Because 1:12's is what the pro drivers are pulling around Wakefield in the comparos, so he's either tweaked it a bit, or a gun driver.

That time of 1:11.5 is crazy fast.

Done a stack of laps there and PB is 1:16.9 in my zed n/a on semi's, full comp suspension, slotted rotors, etc . Last time I was there I just managed to squeeze past a pair of 350 zeds, but our laps were almost identical.

Boosted zed's slot car, the "skyline smacker", has managed a ball tearing 1:08.4.......

Hard to keep track of time down there unless you have a transponder. Hand time methods are sometimes a little unreliable.

no it is not stock, yes it is tweaked and he is a gun driver and you know him...

it was a 12 or 13 i dont exactly memba

says it all!!!!!!!!

use stopwatch times as a roug measurement.

Remember you travel about 30m in 1 second at 100km an hour, so there is a pretty big margin for error when not using proper timers.

Not doubting anyones time just throwing in my 2cents

Yeh Adam

I find that recording your session with an incar camera, and using a dvd recorder for their timer, you can "frame by frame" for identical land marks. Gets you to about 1/3 to 1/2 a second.

Plus you can amuse your friends when your pissed ! B)

I've done 1.10.2 in a standard 32 n1 gtr, but that was on good semis.

1.11 is pretty amazing on road tyres!

Most fairly standard gtsts do between 1.15 and 1.12

1.08 is the best skyline Ive heard of, Giant dropped down from QLD to do that at the Dutton Rally. I think GTRJason is around 1.08 as well.

I know of a couple of Silvias that have broken into sub 10's around Wakefield (with proper timing equipment).

But they're more serious than your usual "light tune" mods, and at least one of them was on full slicks, and the drivers know what they're doing.

well if anyone wants to come next time i go more than welcome...

i will also have be with a sti doin 1:08s as well so call me bluff but come on down next time....

All for another track day at wakefield. Make sure you post it up in the events. I know i would definately take 2 spots if you get one going!!!!!

meh, i was at wakefield last weekend. it will be some time before i go back. it's a fairly fun little track but so damn far. and the flies!! my god the flies!

in our little 2 litre NA 105 alfa spencer has done 13s, i'm not sure on my official times, but they would be a few seconds off that.

We should organise another sau day down there but stay down the night after so you dont have to drive home the same day. Not that ive been to any of the others at wakefield due to budget and work comitments.

Last time i went down for a track day the guys i went with organised the pelican sheep station( right next door for thoes who dont know) domitaries for the night as well. I think there was about 30 people for the track day and it cost about 150 which included the accomodation and pizzas from in at goulbourn plus plenty of booze and of course the hire of the track.

Food for thought anyway.

anyone keen?

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
