Guys and Gal's,

Definately go to this one if you're one of those "I'm worried about my car getting wrecked" types. this has to be one of the best beginner tracks around!

Unfortunately wont be able to make it as I will be in Italy at the time..........but have fun!!!!!!!

holy shit its far......2 hours drive....so to get there at 8 in the morning I'd have to get up at 6:30.....ARRGGGHHHH

2 hours drive

get up at 6:30

earliest you would be there is 8:30 lol

unless you speed.. and I dont recommend speeding around there.. Ive been fined each time I have driven to wakefield.

Adam.. I cant afford a track day so do you still need a flagwhore?

Abo,

Are you coming? I look forward to seeing both of us improving our times, and I would love to do a head to head again.

If things work out the way I plan then to, I should have my Cam sprockets in and the 100 ron tune completed. I will probably boost up if I get this work completed.

Sam very keen to have you there. James - yes it's a big big day out but it's so fun you wont care.

Paul - Of course I'll be there. I'm still tossing up whether to do my secret mod before then or not so I may be able to keep up with you... we will have to wait and see.

Cefiro - CHECK

RB25DET - CHECK

SEMI SLICKS - CHECK

NEXT TO NILL TRACK EXPERIENCE - CHECK ;)

Should be interesting.....ahahaha

At least Wakefield is most prob the best track to get used to the car on!

Fun shall be had.....!!!

Question, what type of facilities will they have there for us? Will they be providing power? The boys will be trucking along a full tool kit and we're thinking about lugging along a generator if we don't have power >_<

Stan, you can hire a pit garage if you want, i think its $50 a day - not 100% sure though

Try calling wakefield during normal hours, they will be able to tell you about power in the free pits(carports).

The number is all over www.wakefieldpark.com.au

...so they will have air tools? Like to take rims off? That may be handy >_<

    • Duncan:- it affect both sides.  Driver side is worse.
    • That seems like a very special issue!  Does it affect both sides? Either way, I would disconnect the driver's side switch and see if it still happens, noting that might require removal of the whole door card which is a bit of a pain (it does on V37 and HY51)  
    • MBS206:- The windows start to slowly open themselves. GTSBoy:- Battery is new since Dec. 
    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
