I can have a go, sure. I'm not as expert as my nitro-racing friends, but it shouldn't be too hard to tune it up. An infra-red temperature gun comes in handy though!

I'm guessing that you're running pretty smokey even on WOT?

I have been racing on road R/c cars for about 5 years and am a member of a world class track located in Moorebank just off the M5. Membership costs $80 a year and with that you can get to attend race meets alot cheaper and you get a set of keys to the track! So when there is no club racing on you can go and practice or have a drift meet with friends etc whenever you want. So if you want to have a rc get together at a proper track this is the place to do it.

I have some pics of the track and my rc car at a race i attended last year.

Come out to a race and get a membership form and pay. Races are the 1st and 3rd sundays of each month. The next race meet will be pretty quiet because there is a big race in brisbane next week so next week would probably be good to come join up and maybe get your car on the track. There is ussually a website with all the info but for some reason its down at the moment. Its in Helles reserve at Moorebank, On the intersection of the M5 and Moorebank ave.

It's a solid hour drive for me, but if eveyone is serious about proper drifting on a track, i'll happily pay the money.

Members have keys, but are they allowed to invite their friends in?

Thanks for the info, Chris!

wow.. just looked at the pics... it's not a particularly tight track, is it? I'm not sure how it'd go for drifting, but i'd definately give it a try!

Last time I got a drift session on a track was during a "dinner break" of a club meet when they weren't using the track.

I don't think anyone has planned to go to the track, but i'm going to suggest: Sunday the 19th at Curl Curl netball courts. (Northern Beaches)

I will go down and check it out to make sure there isn't a ton of netball games on, but when there is, there is usually a court free. It's easy to access and quite smooth for asphalt.

We'll just meet up and muck around without any track (unless someone brings some), and if it is successful, i'll look to organise something more proper for the next meet! (which could be somewhere else too!)

Please post IN or OUT for midday Sunday 19th meet at the above location!

sorry RANDY, ive got parts arriving for my car this week so i'll probably be putting it all back together on the weekend.

sorry mate, i might go check that moorbank place out though.. im from bankstown so its not far for me.

Security: the controller and receiver use a frequency-modulated cystal to communicate. If two people have the same, or very similar frequency, you'll both be controlling two cars each. Interesting, good for a laugh, but then you just get the shyts.

Steve and Paul IN! =-D

    • I personally would run 2x from the cam covers into the catch can, 1x sump vent to catch can (would mount this at a low point of the catch can, so it can also act as a drain). I would see if you can run a -12AN down there to improve venting and also draining. The head drain thing, just drain that back to the sump on the other side. Catch can to be vented, unless you plumb or back to the intake.
    • Yeah the head "drain" is rather a sump/crank case vent. My catch can stopped filling up after venting the sump to the catch can. I have 4x fittings in mine, which is about 5Ls. 2x cam, 1x sump vent/catch can drain, 1x fitting back to the intake and a massive breather which can be blocked so it's a fully sealed system.
    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went?
