I can't believe that I broke F*#king exhaust manifold studs at EC on Thursday... and as a result won't have a car for tomorrow... Anyone want to lend me theres? pete... what is the 31 doing?

One PISSED camper.:D :D ;):D :D

Wow what a great day ! Totally different to what I was expecting and turned out to be a good experience (even when sitting on the sideline).

Unfortunately the 127 pictures that i took weren't the best because i only have 3x Optical Zoom.

They can be view at http://skylines.pnc.com.au

(at the bottom).

Like Ben said - what a great day ! Big pat on the back to Pete (fatz) bloody good day mate.

Spewing chunks that I didn't get to drive today.....Major chunks.

Last time I came to EC track day, I couldn't run then either, which again, pissed me off even more..... Damn moddified cars.....

For those interested - I thought I had fouled plugs cause I was stalling, farked idle, no power etc on the way up to the creek - but I limped in..... ( Background: had new fuel pressure reg fitted during the week , plus moved the BOV to plumb back position, and new ECU tune...) Got home ready to take the plugs out to check the damage, found small oils splotches in the engine bay - all over the place - like small amounts of oil was being sprayed everywhere - I was al ready to take all the plugs out to see if I could reserect anything - Anyhow , I think what happened is that there is either (a) Too much oil being shot thru from the turbo and/or (B) there is an intercooler pipe leak somewhere.... Hopefully not too serious....

Next time Ii am bringing a hire car are backup ..... Fark Fark and double fark !!!

Pics and Videos posted soon !!!

Play of the day goes to Duncan , who on a $money$ lap came a bit unstuck and collected a hat ! I got evidence bud !! he he

Apart from my misfortune - a bloody top day. Bring on the next one.

(Damn sunburnt tho)...

Cheers !!!

Oh..man...sprung again...twice in 4 days!

That was a top day, we have to make it a regular event.

For once I'm happy that photos don't tell the whole story!

As for that whitches hat, I think I just took the apex a tiny bit too close :( pretty sure it was a good lap apart from that small prob!

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
