I'd love to come to this, but Sunday is a bitch of a day!

I hate the thought of having to drive most of the day and then drive back to Newcastle!

You Sydney lot have it so easy when it comes to race tracks and track days, we can't even get the council to get their heads out of their arses when it comes to getting ours approved!

How come only 1 track day this year?

Insurance just way too much these days?

i will try and make this i reckon it would be good fun. Could do with someone with more experiance giving me some pointers :(

There will be heaps of experienced people there to take you out and look after you. This will be a very noob friendly track day with heaps of instruction.

There is a limit but it's a generous limit. No doubt 60% of the people in this thread who have posted up that they will come wont actually make it.

Yeah this is likely! Although the last few track days have sold out pretty comfortably from memory so there should be no hesitation when deciding whether or not to run the day IMO ;)

The other people that I really want there are the club elders, the guys with heaps of experience and fast cars. We need you guys to be our instructors.

I might be able to secure the services (not his car) of a Fujitsu V8 Support Series driver if your interested or you think he might be of some assistance.

I'll try to get my PNV back together for this.

Cheers, D

OK I reckon i'll be in on this, another track day n00bie so stick me in the n00bie group.

Will there be a group booking for accomodation for the sat night, or just organise it yourself?

I'm sure we'll manage to organise a group booking! Probably a bit closer to the date I assume.

I definately recommend staying the night though!!!

F'uck it... I'm in!

That's the spirit!

    • Yes, it's similar length. 
    • Is the CD009 similar length from bell to shifter?    car will just be for the street with the odd track day. It’s RB30det, and weighs about 1000kg
    • The r34 gearbox is like $3400/3700 landed from Japan sometime last year.   Contact jessestreeter.com for info and quotes. From memory the navara gearbox needs input shaft machined down as I looked into a while back and there's a thread somewhere here from 2018-2021 about it. Depends on what your doing with the car maybe worth the dollars to go cd009 or a 8hp50/70.
    • VCAM doesn't really increase peak power, it just widens the powerband. So if you were giving up power with adjustable cam gears to get better low-end response yes in theory it "increases power" but otherwise not really. Stroker kit might put you in a more efficient region of the compressor map which will get you more power but at say 7000 rpm I'm not sure that much will change. The original HKS GT2530, -5s, and GTX2860R gen 2 are all roughly the same kind of turbo. If you want 600 horsepower those are the turbos you need. So 500 whp. Just expect to spend some quality time trying to figure out intake/exhaust piping. The "twin turbo" pipe is an obvious place to start. Make sure the actuator preload and all of that fun boring stuff is set up correctly. Throw a VCAM step 2 at it if you want good response, 2.8L stroker too. If you're not actually wedded to 500 whp all the time you can barely get there with -7s or Nismo R3 turbos, you just have to run E85 or race gas and run them hard:
