  1. Need a radcam Ben! Mick, this tyre is narrower than when I bought it, can I have warranty replacement A lap of Wakefield with Flame Cam
  2. John needs to charge a big margin so he can line his engine bay with gold.
  3. In every series I've seen they interpret coachwork as the original (or replacement) body panels. Otherwise there would be no limit on how wide a car could be if anything you add to the coachwork is coachwork. Canards and splitters generally are narrower than the widest point of the car's body.
  4. well....I don't know who's event it was at EC yesterday....but that is why most clubs don't run under CAMS rules, they can be a PITA. In any case, Brad can help you out with the catch can and all other schedule A and B requirements. Unless you are racing a cage is not required by CAMS but some clubs might require them when you are on slicks. I'd never want to discourage a motorsport competitor, but there are plenty of events where a cage is not required - a cage is that key decision where your car is no longer a reasonable daily optio, and if you are going to go that way there are lots of other options worth considering.
  5. lol...it will leave one day....just need to finish the damn house first! If you are going to get rid of anything, get rid of that shitbox pulsar. Jeremy...why the need for CAMS compliance? Are you thinking about getting a logbook? If so, a cage will be the big change. If a logbook is not important I can't see why a 3l catch can would be any more appropriate than a 2l one. If your breathing is under control 2l vs 3l is no big deal.
  6. c'mon Mark....share your oil experiences and get Jeremy to just kill himself in despair. Did you make any progress after last weekend? Or did your car co-incidentally catch fire on sunday morning?
  7. wow. all the grumpy old cun7s are out tonight.
  8. as tempted as I am to make this difficult Jeremy......just drop it at Brad's with an order for a 3l catch can, and then pick it up 2 days later with a 3l custom catch can at an excellent price. Your car can sleep next to my race car while there if it will make it feel less lonely.
  9. I don't think we can blame the NSW panel for the time attack section of the regs, I'm sure they come from $uperlap regs.
  10. can't be too careful! motor looks good though....getting all the right bits and done properly.
  11. I see Steve-o....I assumed from the thread title "SAUNSW - Club events" that this thread was for SAUNSW club events. My mistake.
  12. +1 I've accidently bumped this switch a number of times
  13. Which category for racing. Changing to a non-nissan v8 will limit you majorly.
  14. lol, I think it needs to calculate a little harder....
  15. Hi Steveo, I noticed you included the A$h Nats as a club event - you need to remove it as it is not a club event and all of the income goes direct to a A$h instead.
  16. ?Isn't Kinglake near Bt Buller, Mt Baw Baw, Lake Mountain and THC? seems like you have an excellent neighbourhood to me. Try living in Sydney with: 1 race track they have just split into 2 dodgy 50s lap tracks 1 race track only supercars can run on (that costs $$$millions per year) 1 race track that is only available twice a year (yes, taxis again at one of them) 1 race track 3 hours from sydney with the worst weather in Oz.
  17. Interesting attempt to bring the regs back closer to what their competitors are doing. I still have absolutely no idea why type SV (or now time attack) exist outside the regular 1-4 classes. And they continue to rely on the meaningless rule of "road registered" without requiring "road legal" Andrew, you will be please to know that Time Attack regs say: 2.6.2 Coil over suspension kits are permitted. Hammerhead S13s are unfortunately banned.
  18. Well firstly, don't let that rego go until you absolutely have to! Rego might be expensive, but towing a car everywhere will cost far more (tow car + safe trailer + fuel/brakes/tyres when towing) Many of the overly commercial/try hard events have "road registered" classes of some sort - but they meaningless because they don't require "road legal", just current rego. Pretty much anyone can keep plates on pretty much anything so there is no point sticking to a class like that. The only other events to consider are rallies - these require registration of some sort to complete because at least some stages are on open roads. Full rego is by far the easiest, but most states except NSW have a rally/conditional/special interest rego that you can organise. If not, you can probably obtain a temporary "unregistered vehicle permit" or similar.
  19. Yep, a 110v inverter.....pretty rare option! You would need to run a transformer of some sort to run 240v which would be a PITA unless you had some specific need. Or if your device can accept 110-240v all you need is an adapter for the pins
  20. Welcome aboard Brett....your timing sucks we had a big track day on saturday and you would have been a welcome addition. You should check out the information on joining the club in the NSW section
  21. sorry no idea but I have always just used a full bottle per radiator, together with distilled water. It took 5+o out the temps for me. But I wouldn't be too worried about 105 on a hot day. Oil temp is much more important, I have regularly run the car with water temps over 120 without issues.
  22. wierd eh? even HICAS or ATTESSA (my best guess for a clutch switch) has never been plugged in any car I've seen.
  23. 1 bottle is exactly the right amount for 1 radiator by my lazy calculations why are you looking to use it? Are you have temp problems or just trying to guard against it
  24. hahha good work on the pbs Ben and Lordvanwhateverthefcuk. Those Federal FZ-201s are the bomb (we had them on Neil's car too), and Mick even provided at track support ("yeah, that rubbing looks ok, miles away from the canvas yet"....which sounded to me like "get back out there and keep giving it hell you pussies!") Good day, and a good turn out despite the late date in the year. The only down side is that it was a bad day to be a rotor....did I really see a new record set by an engine failing while driving off the trailer? (all of a sudden I feel better about some of my blow ups lol)
  25. hahaha Nissan are normally so good about this....but there are indeed 2 plugs that fit together the wrong way around and will stop spark on the 32 gtr loom. you'll always remember after the first time you do it
