yay i managed to nudge out wilch , tomas and liz

woo :P

not bad for my first outing hehe

i really need some sort of suspension

Which one are you on the timesheet :D

I really need new tyres. Was on the belts for my last session and couldn't get a clean run :).

What a great day and yes that Z-Tune was a beast, it sounds fantastic at full steam through turn 1 with monster brakes. I was out there in 700 the red S15, Oran park is excellent and I cannot wait for the next track day.

Cheers

Patrick

wow you nsw guys actually got your cars out on the track :) j/k..... good to see.. and that z-tune is sex.... what are the 2 coolers for underneath the rear of the car? THe brakes don't look much bigger than stock GTR - what are they?

Most people were too drunk to remember their bets, and I was too drunk to remember to bring the sheet of paper home.

My brother guessed 153km/h and that's exactly what the top speed of the silvia was down the straight. lol

so I'll just take him out of the comp, whoever was closest to 153 gets the beans.. I think it might have been steveo

i loved seeing the prince out there, that thing was awesome!

I believe that was me guessing 155.........:)

Gearbox and Diff Oil Coolers

The brakes are significanty larger than stock brakes.

SPECIAL Z-TUNE BRAKES DEVELOPED WITH BREMBO: This brake system, which was developed to a performance target of 1.6G when fitted with Semi-slick tyred, was jointly developed with Brembo. It features such parts as a mono-block 6 piston caliper (for the front), 2 piece front brake rotor with a 365mm rotor, and 355mm one piece rear brake rotor jointly developed with KIRYU. In addition, the ABS unit was specially tuned to further utilize the performance of these high-performance parts. The ATTESA ET-S and active L.S.D. were specially tuned to accompany the increase in engine power in order to make the torque distribution to the front more suitable and to improve the rear differential effectiveness, among other things, to stay true to the great handling of the base car Skyline GT-R (BNR34).

Front: Mono block 6 piston caliper made by Brembo

365mm 2 piece vented disc

Rear: 4 piston caliper made by Brembo

355mm one piece ventilated disc made by KIRYU

It was an awesome day. I was mildly pleased with my time. I was actually a bit slower than last time out, but I didn't really get any clean laps. Plus it seems the track was a bit slow, possibly due to all the rain? Some of the guys I know are quick there were a little off their best times.

Anyone who has some nice shots of the beer mobile I'd love to see them. I was car 295. Steve and N1 R33 GTR had some nice ones, but I'd love to see some video too, particularly of me going all 4 wheels on the concrete flat out over the flip flop.

Lot's of the SAU guys did really well which was nice.

And the Z-tune sounded magic being put through it's paces.

1 last thing... I got to pass the Z-tune! :) :) :nuke: Went up the inside at turn 8. hehe 1 proud moment! I wish I had it on video.

I also have to say a big thank you to GTRJason (aka Jason Lavis) from JADE Automotive in leppington. He dropped what he was doing to get my car into his workshop at lunch to bleed the brakes for me. Anyone who needs some work done in that area would be mad not to go to Jason, he has all the good GTR knowledge and if you needed any more proof he has his own GTR fairly hauling around Oran Park GP in approx 1.15 which is VERY quick.

Thanks Jason.

Was a good day. First for me on GP circuit and I improved every lap.

I just have one annoyance, too many cars on the track and people not thinking about how their actions or inactions affect other people. Putting around at 70k's an hour is fine for session 1 but when we're waiting 45minutes + for the next session I dont want to be stuck behind some guy out for a sunday drive around the back section...

Liz you did an awesome time in that car well done.

Times are below.

Time Attack Super Lap Wakefield Sunday 17th September. Some fast cars to have a go against.

Natsoft Timing Results

you r32/r33/r34 ladies are welcome to correct me, but do i see chris easton in hr31 having 4th fastest lap time??

go the 31

yeh chris was flying around at one point i was watching him, he kept behind that ztune for about 2-3 laps until he *once again* lost traction after the bridge and drifted around out there lol

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to come I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
