All,

I have mentioned a couple of times that I would look into getting something organised about improving our driving and racing. I have identified 2 possible people who could do this for us.

Peter Finlay or Ian Luff and both operate out at Oran Park.

Peter has sent me out an information pack and I will post the info when I get it.

Ian Luff has given me a list of events.

Stage 1: Smartdrive, Basic driving skills with braking, steering, emergency stopping etc.

Stage 2: Advance Car, This is done on the skid pan and involves all wet weather work.

Stage 3: Performance driving, High speed work, cornering, race lines etc.

Cost.

Stage 1: $236 Mid week, $258 Saturday

Stage 2: $247 Mid week,

Stage 3: $302 Mid week.

Packages: Stages 1 & 2 $462, Stages 1 & 3 $495

All courses are 1 Day, out at Oran Park.

If you want to get your CAM's License you need to do stages 1 & 3.

I want to know who is interested, and what you are interested in, we can book exclusive days, or take a whole day just for our selves, or get a group discount. They can tailor a course just for us maybe compress 2 days into 1.

Personally I would like to do the stage 3 course only, but I want my CAM's so I may have to do stage 1 as well.

Post up your interest and I will see what I can do with the price and or getting our selves a sole Skyline day.

I am definitely interested in doing this. I have already done the skidpan day, so I would be only interested in 1 and 3 - but the skidpan was hell fun, so I'm always up for some more of that action. :cheers:

yep, we did this in August 2002, about 12 of us, its was great :)

no seriously guys, this thread is from 2002....

Perhaps start a thread in NSW, training like this is super valuable and a great idea, Brendan organised the last course with Aaron McGill in November last year so it must be time for another one :mad:

      Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.

      HY51 Fuga Hybrid

      Pretty sure they run the same engine as the Q50 hybrid which specifies 95 RON.  I ran 98 in mine for a while, but it made no difference in performance or economy, so I have been using 95 for the last few years.  I have never hit 6.0L/100km, but have returned mid to high 6 on the highway.  Being a hybrid, fuel economy is a lot more dependant on how you drive it.  At 110km/h, mine never goes into EV mode on the highway, so returns closer to 7.5L/100. urban driving can return low 8s if you are careful or over 10 if you are a bit more enthusiastic on the throttle.

      About a quarter of what you want to do. It's only R7R, not R&dismantle&replaceparts&reassemble&R. ? It is stock. I already told you, you will NOT have broken those. It's f**king 4th gear for Christ's sake. You just chipped the teeth off.
