Hi Dust Brother,

I'm pretty sure Rally ® and Circuit © licenses are seperate systems.

You can come to the open track days that we get along to a fair bit, these only need standard drivers license. For wakefield open practice days you just pay about $30 for a wakefield license (for a year). For open practice at Oran Park or Eastern Creek you need a C3 or higher license.

Dragon18, circuit racing license (C3 and up) require an "Observed License Test", you can either take this seperatley or as part of a 1 or 2 day race driving course. Once youve done that you have to attend a flags lecture, medical and pay up! Oh, and you have to join a CAMS affiliated club like SAU NSW. Check www.cams.com.au for full details.

Hey guys/gals

New to the forum having just sold my MX5 and bought a 33gts-t series II. I have a 2NS and have done about 30 track days both in Vic and NSW over the past 2 years.

Zane, is that the zane from the MX forum?? Met you up at wakefield last year when the vic MX5 guys came up.

Anyway, the reason I wanted to get onto this forum is to find out if there is a club with a few skylines in Vic that does track days. I am currently a member of the MX5club vic and maserati clubs but would love to play with some other skylines......

P.S Very excited, my first day on the track in 'Brutus' is on the 4th Oct at Phillip Island with the HSV club. Got new track tyres and pads and figure why not get used to having 3 times the power of an MXC5 on one of the trickiest, fastest and potentially dangerous tracks in Oz!!! Ah, turn one, I can't wait.....

I have a National Rally Licence.

Dust Brother... the NRL permits you to compete in all events that were covered by the old L2 (now L2S). This includes (but is not limited to) all "non-speed" events (motorkhanas, night runs, etc), khanacrosses, sprints, hillclimbs, Touring Road Events, National rallies (obviously)... just about everything you might reasonably want to do without getting in to door-banging.

If you're in SE Qld or NE NSW (or further afield - we get entries from all over), check my event on 24 July: http://www.queenslandchallenge.com

As for costs... a CAMS L2S will do most people and they are as cheap as chips. Hell, an NRL is only $132!

L2S requires no observed test but these tests are a dawdle anyway. They are more concerned with your ability to behave responsibly and take instruction from officials.

I have a L2S licence. This year I am competing in the MSCA sprint events through the Nissan Datsun Sports Owners Club. I'm hoping to compete in next years GP Rally and some other tarmak rallies that require the L2S only. So much fun. :rant:

    • I have a 6 boost manifold and it has loads of bends etc. turbo has a cover however manifold doesn’t so I started to wrap what I could without taking turbo off. Very restricted area   are you stating wrapping could lead to cracking weld? Is that because heat is retained?    i have a exhaust gas temp right after turbo and it hits 700degree or 800 at times.   there are areas which is impossible to reach with fibre glass cloth. Is there anything I could apply such as the photo shared earlier which would formulate around exhaust pipe in difficult to reach areas, sort of like aluminium foil flexible to shape it in place?   i think from earlier reply you mentioned acl? Is this what you meant?   https://www.nstparts.com/product/acl-heat-shield-700x275     photo of my engine bay   https://ibb.co/9grHsMN https://ibb.co/bXC8KRM https://ibb.co/KV3kGZc   I am trying to cover bottom of the exhaust manifold which joins the turbo. Only way is to take turbo and possible manifold out as it also touches the engine mount which I don’t fancy doing
    • So....I managed to fix the belt coming off problem, but unfortunately i destroyed my oil pump. While testing and hitting my rev limiter a bunch, my oil pump took a shit. I actually heard it break. In my great wisdom i decided to hit redline 5 times (original plan). Lowered it to 7500 for the soft limiter. Normally it would come off on the first go. The 6th time I hit the limiter the pump broke and as i began accelerating again and hit it the 7th time, oil pressure dropped and the protection kicked in. It actually made a "tink" as if i dropped something hollow.   The motor is pulled and should be rebuilt and put back in 3 weeks. No bearings were spun and i could have gotten away with simply replacing the pump, but since i had to pull the motor....might as well build it   I made a billet tensioner and the belt stayed on without getting frayed. I also made one for a friends R33, but I was thinking of using a hydraulic unit to keep constant pressure on it when the belt stretches.
    • Yeah 98 for me, and 6.7/100 was my actual usage. On the downside the bloody thing still isn't running properly but at least they hybrid system is happy now. It starts but missfires like a bastard, and isn't throwing any code except "missfire". Thanks scoop. I did notice the AFMs are reading quite different at idle 1.33v and 1.67v so 25% variance (and have both changed and swapped them, the issue stays on the driver's side afm) so I'm looking for exhaust restriction (mouse nest?), compression issue or (hopefully not, no physical damage seen) wiring issue. Throttle might also be an issue but that is harder because you can't swap them side to side and not cheap to fire the parts cannon at.
    • I hope you're right and it somehow justifies it's existence!
