sigh, i had to stay home for the gtr parts from danh.

how was it victor, anything shocking?

not really, pretty tame.. well it was my first time going to track day so wouldnt have anything to compare with.

but no real problems, besides the odd car breaking down etc... John's Z and Neil's cars were awesome!

Doodz! No photos? You promised. Who else has some?

Well anyway I had a great time and I don't think I was alone there.

Thank you very very very very much to the volunteers who did the flag marshalling all day. I really appreciate the effort and sacrifice you all made.

We would have got going a bit sooner if everyone arrived a bit earlier, but as per usual track days, by the end of the day people are tired, they've run out of fuel (2 of us ran out on the track :D), some break down or whatever and we end up getting good track time late in the piece.

Thanks for the beer Oz and the race. You had me with those slicks but only just. :)

I think the funniest part of the day was about lunch time when it was all hands and spanners on deck for skyline maintenance but the rotaries were all running sweet! Tables turned for once!

I'm not sure when exactly the lap times will be posted on Natsoft but whoever notices first, post up here. I know I got 1:25's earlier in the day but it remains to be seen what came of the later sessions.

Fatz, that thing is a weapon, and I mean that literally. :(:) Nah, give it some brakes and minitubs and it should be right. I now know your secrets to quick lap times though... Short cuts!!! I'm not kidding for those of you who didn't make it, that cloud of dust was the classic fatz short cut, not an off. The difference is control!!!

We ended up with great weather, bit of sun, some clouds and a few spots on the windscreen at one stage but nothing came of it. Had a great time.

Good to see so many newbies out there. Are you hooked yet?

I had the BEST fun ive had in aages today. It was awesome!! Big thanks to Abo Bob for lending me some tools, and giving me some good training at the start of the day :D

I ended up with a 1:30 half way through the day, but felt a bit quicker later on..

Thanks for all the volunteers time today, you helped make it an awesome day!

Now, to get my fuel filler fixed after spewing liters and liters of fuel all over the place! :D

We need photos people!

oh yeah, your car sounded just bloody awesome primordial too bad about the fuel filler, would've love to hear that car going around a couple more laps. Next time I hope my car will be ready for the track

What a great day, thanks to Adam and co for eveything to make this day very enjoyable for all. Thanks Adam also for helping me bleed my brakes made a big difference!!!

Lizzy we both know who came out the winner here, everyone! It was an awesome day and to answer Adam's question, YES i'm hooked!

Got my times down to 1.31.6 so very happy first timer :D

MADGTR and Abobob's car were flying!!

Again thanks everyone for a great day and Adam for everything, you are a real credit to SAU :D:D

    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.  
    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
