  1. Didn't you and B-Man take it upon yourself to personally track down each skyline driver and indoctrinate them?
  2. Was it the GP circuit or Sth circuit? I've never been to a UAS day, sounds like they are a good thing.
  3. pm Doctor
  4. http://www.cheaprooms.com/ :uh-huh:
  5. Do you have adjustable swaybars? easiest way to dial out oversteer if you do.
  6. 1 BAR=1000 millibars=1000 hPa=14.5 psi 1 atmosphere=1013.2 hPa=14.7 psi=29.92"Hg=760mmHg or; 1 psi = 0.06895 bar 1 bar = 14.50326 psi 1 psi = 6.8948 hPa or goto; http://www.speckdesign.com/Tpressure.html
  7. rofl make sure you take enough for everyone bri33ta. :uh-huh:
  8. Used Injection perfection a few years ago for my BM, knew their stuff and had all the right gear.
  9. lol Doc! :bahaha: you'd better take back all the bad things you were saying about the R34 turbos..... Glad to hear it was a simple fix.
  10. My thoughts on the subject.... If you are sensible about it you can take any car on the track. Just drive it within it's limits and your's. The idea of a track day is different for everyone. I go out there to drive fast in a safer (and legal) environment to the road. I do a few hot laps and then let the car cool down. Tyres, brakes etc can cop a beating on the track IF YOU DON"T LOOK AFTER THEM. A brief checklist I do: Bleed brakes before every track day. (Using DOT 5 or higher fluid in brakes) Check condition of brake pads (more than 1/2 left is a guide). Check cond. of tyres and inflate to correct pressure. Check all wheelnuts torqued to correct spec. Change engine oil (usually coincides with oil change time anyway). Check all other fluid levels. Visually check (and do the grab and shake check) suspension for any obvious problems. Now if you think about it they are all things you should be doing anyway, even if you are only driving a car on the road.... Frank Williams does NOT use track days to recruit drivers so there's no point pushing it. Wait until you get familiar with the track/car/yourself before trying for the lap record. Everyone should do it at least once in their life.
  11. Yep sounds like the dash dimmer switch. The compliers probably put the cheapest one they could find in. (Nothing like saving a couple of dollars... ) The secret to getting the steering wheel off: Take the nut off (as you've done) and with the ball of your hand whack the outside of the wheel at the 12, 4 and 8 'o'clock positions. Voila! wheel should slide off.
  12. Ando, I won't be going directly there, sorry. Basically: Bridge/Tunnel, ED, M5, take Camden Valley Way exit, after 10-15 km turn right at Oran Park rd. About an hour from Chatty.
  13. 1. nfi re. gasket. 2. The oil line.
  14. Doctor had a similar problem with his GTS4 I think.:confused: Took it somewhere and plugged it in to their diagnostic computer and found the problem.
  15. Problem: Squeaking suspension. Solution: Get a room!
  16. Yep soften the rear suspension. Lowering tyre pressure will be effective at stuffing your tyres for little advantage...that is unless you're running 48psi.
  17. What's CWM? same as CWA? lol
  18. red900ss

  23. Hi Bill and welcome :wavey: If you go over to www.skylinesnsw.com make sure you park your car tail up aganst the wall. :shake: :uh-huh:
  24. Thanks for posting it user That's going straight to the poolroom! Reading it really brought back the memories of how varied the racing was under the Grp A rules. So much more interesting than watching the Falcodore dinosaurs...
  25. If I were you I'd be checking the ferry timetable.
