The Altezza Club is holding another Ian Luff drive day at Oran Park.

This day will be a Stage 2, with some of the 'added goodness' that the Luff crew usually add for us, in order that the day be catered more to driving enthusiasts.

Lunch is also included.

Date: Friday March 10, 2006

Cost: $280.00

Requirements: Car, valid drivers licence, and completion of Stage 1 or similar driving course.

For more info, PM myself or follow this link:

16 spaces left.

This event is now open to those who haven't completed Stage 1. Entrants will be seperated on the day so that first timers can be bought up to speed early in the morning and then participate in the Stage 2 stuff. A golden opportunity, then!

Apologies for dodgy link!

The day will be preceding Friday, March 10 regardless of wether we fill every slot or not.

Entrants will be divided into those who haven't done Stage 1 and those who have. Those who haven't will cover some of the basics so that they can be bought up to speed and join in on some of the Stage 2 stuff.

14 spaces left. Some Nissan's attending, no Skylines (yet) :P

Hi guys,

saw the invitation off SAU and am pretty interested in joining. Problem is i have not taken any such training and attended any trackies before. (Apart from a couple of laps round a track in my home country in malaysia)

Am only driving my line as a form of transport (ironic but true) therefore would like to get into the sport and learn couple of stuff to handle the car.

Anyone could help mi as to provide information on wat is to be prepared( HMMm i think i sound silly but pls understand i am totally clueless bout this.)

Tks

Jay

Hey Jay,

If you wish to be involved in this event, you need to get your payment in as quickly as possible, as traditionally there is a last minute rush on spots leading up to the event.

The event takes place at Oran Park, 8am till 5pm. Cost is $280.00 and includes lunch. Since you have not done an event like this before, you will be doing a small amount of theory at the beginning of the day, then it's out to do some high speed braking, skid pan work, slalom (around witches hats, motorkhana style) etc.

Please PM or email me if you wish to be involved!

Latest update

24 spots taken. Have just taken 4 confirmations, with a 5th coming through from J@Y on the SAU forums any minute now...

One entrant has mentioned he may have to cancel on Friday, which means that a spot may become available at the last minute. If anyone wants to be on the wait list, please contact me directly via email or PM with a mobile number.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
