Something i did find interesting on the day (that wasnt on the skidpan) was that in the afternoon when i was taking pics from the other end closer to the race track their was a race/praction session of guy riding motorbikes doubling a person on the back.

I've never seen this before and found it quite suprising that they were still able to corner soooo quickly.

just found out

sounds like everyone had a great time except for one tool "the guy in the wrx with the flat tires" that wrote the whole day off on another forum and gave arron a very bad rap..... which is complete crap cause the day was run 100% to the way i wanted it o be

he had alot to say about the day and i wold like to say that what he said was completely wrong and the day was run exactly how we intended it to be and i would have no hestitation in going back to arron macgil for a skidpan day.

mmm, thats a shame, I didn't hear a complaint from anyone else? perhaps hyundai drivers have a special point of view.

Oh, you mean that Ben trouble maker! Dark blue wrx, right?

The ONLY bad thing about the day was that I didn't have a car to drive. But my spot went to a bloke that really enjoyed himself (Lucky bastard!).

Well done pete... I'll be driving at the next one. (fingers crossed)

Tex , the Buick is a boat so it will be right at home on the Skid Pan :)

Yeah thanks for the slot Dan :)

Has anyone else tried to clean their car? I can't get rid of the smear marks. Tried cleaning the windscreen 5 or 6 times. Looks like a polish will be required. Must be a combination of emulsified rubber, oil and dirt...:P

Erm, on second thoughts, if this is the case the Buick will be staying off the 'pan, methinks! :eek:

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
