Ok time to ramp this up people. We need:

A) Excitement.

B) More entrants.

Can you all please tell all the people who you know like track or could be interested in it as we need more entrants to make this financially viable. If you are a keen and helpful club member put it in your signature and let's get this show on the road!!

Hey Mate. As long as it passes scruiteenering it's all good.

Sorry to sound like a ninny, but, what do they look for in scrutineering? my car is completely stripped out with just a seat, dash cluster, harness and fire extinguisher. will this pass?

It's basically eveything has to be secure in engine bay and inside the car, no lose articles in the car and no fluid leaks..

What have you used the car for in the past?? sound tuff if all stripped out :D

Evil weevil and DIF will be able to clarify anything else

usuall things that get checked

*Your brakelights need to work and if it's raining, your windscreen wipers need to work.

*Your car cannot have any fluid leaks at all.

*seatbelts in good cond

*brake pedal feels solid

*engine bay in good cond/everythiung secure

*tyres can't be bald

*make sure there is nothing loose in the car (boot/cabin)

*remove your space saver on the day (make sure it's still in the car on the way there.. you may need it :( )

Sounds like your car would be fine to pass though. Chris (Evil_Weevil and D_I_F will be doing the scrscruteneer checks on the day, so shoot one of them a PM or they can answer in here if they see this :D

Do you have any major exhaust mods, or do you have battery/oil/fuel relocated ?? this obviously needs to be done properly and enclosed where needed etc..

Its a 31 2door that i bought earilier this year to turn into a race/drift car, and this will be its first run (and mine :) ) on a track. I just wanted get it on the track to see what it really needs and not what i think it needs.

Orsm, thanks for the quick replies guys.

What about exhaust mods like this?? Done by yours truly but very tidy and very very secure... Just not RTA or EPA compliant...

That's fine. as long as the tape is heat resistant and it's all secured.

I'd need Chris to give the final answer, but i'd say that wouldnt be an issue.

Ahem! What am I, chop liver?

If you need the numbers to be viable... let Neil and I know and we can bring in the open wheelers :P:blink:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
