I've wanted to get on the track for ages and I got a R33 not long ago so I'm there, no matter what the date is.

Heard some talk about oil coolers, they something worth considering?

*just joined up to timeattack.com

Have you done anything to the mighty CIVIC to make sure you will be able to keep up with Jason and I?? Just remember you haven't got the mighty GTR to back you up now. It will all come down to driver skill. :P

sold the civic after 7 months of boring ownership. i'm currently in possession of of Honda Integra DC2 type R :P

The must-have 'family car' department has been taken care of by the wife and her new corolla :(

keep the car till at least the 1st track day of the year :sorcerer:

So all the hype of the "powerful civic" gone to waste. Oh well, I am sure the Integra is another story all together.

Yeah, I think I should be able to postpone the sale until the first few track days I feel.

Hi,

To get on the mailing list, go to www.TimeAttack.com.au and hit the join now button. You will then get emails about all up coming track days.

I have fixed the date, it is MAY 17. Sorry about the confusion.

Can everyone intending to come to the day make sure you have joined the above mailing list so I have you in the system and also send me an email booking in. If there are more than the two groups I antisipated then I want to make sure I have enough spots for everyone !

I am getting there a 7am to make sure I can organise my new license as my old license has expired. If you are doing the afternoon session only then I would say get there no later than 12 just to make sure you get everything done because it all gets rolling pretty quickly once the briefing has been completed.

Seems like it was good fun out there as usual~ kindda disappointed that my car wasn't ready for this after the boost issues during AWD shootout, especially when andrew brought the ultima down. So how did the times go fer everyone? Weather looked to be fantastic today, should have been some good times i reckon~

Cant speak for anybody else Jboy but Adam, Warwick and I had a great time. I think dem had a tunnafun in the auto taxi too.

Warwick had a couple of little niggling issues that prevented him from posting a time during the clubman rounds but I put the wheelchair through for a best of 1.08.9 Abd Adam just shaved me in his 32 gtr by a gnats dick with 1.08.72

He did this on his very last try and in sheer desperation I think. He couldnt bear the thought of the old man in his gtst dustin his gtr. :laughing-smiley-014: :laughing-smiley-014:

It was and absolutely awesome day. What a hoot. :P Perfect weather. For those of you who said you would turn up and didnt, you missed a bloody fantastic day. Bring on the next one.

Oh, and Noel, maybe next time I will let you keep up. :)

I got half a session on the clubman (very messy), I think I got a 1:08.xx, and 1 session on the sprint (1:04.xx) before I blew an exhaust manifold gasket :) There was a bit of carnage in the SAU group.....

edit: Boo to the people who said they'd come and didn't. Those spots could have been filled by people who actually did want to race....

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
