how much is this? looks a lot of fun.

To enter? Start at $50k and work up from there. To be competitive? How big is your wallet, and how well can you steer? :P

To spectate? No idea actually? Free?

Hey Dave,

It's Andrew from the other night, nice to meet you boys... Ask Jeff if he wants to swap GTRs.

I'll try to make it out to Wakefield to cheer you on :D

well mine is production cars but not improved production.

before making round 1 I need to replace oil pump, run it in, new exhaust (now they are free the 70mm one needs to be gooooone), tune (esp now we can run cam gears) and talk to gary about suspension. Oh and sort out the targetted scruitiny as well.

so....am going all guns to be there but it is looking tight from here.

I have been under the record twice now in qual but havent made it in a race.

That is what Lofty wrote :blink:

He already has the under 2 litre and over 2 litre records at Oran Park and Eastern Creek, has the unders at Wakey and whatever else he owns.

At least I own the unders at Amaroo hehe I was able to keep one :P

BTW Oran will not be going that soon. Will be here until at least 2010.

haha, yeah sorry I know he has it now, I just meant if he can hang on to it till closing.

awesome for you to have the LR at Amaroo mate. It was such an cool track. it was closed down when I was just a teenager but I was out there watching a few times before it closed and did get to do a few laps there just toodling around. It would have been great to race on. My best friends father had a spectacular (and terrible) accident there when we were kids and he was driving an atlantic. flipped it into the crowd. :banana:

such a shame we seems to be getting less and less tracks in NSW as time wears on. :)

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
