I was keen, until a certain manual conversion popped up... looks like ill be busy with that so probably wont make it out this month.

:banana:

luke, you end up getting your wheel fixed form last prac?

At this stage i'll be doing the Modern Reg', although i'm only 85% as i have an exam on the 30th and one on the 1st. There are a few things that i have to do on my car so if i get a chance to spend a day on the car while studying for the exams then i'll be out there. After all i'm leading the Champ' at the moment, can't let that slip away.

If your looking at setting some good times i would suggest doing the modern reg as you there are two groups and the grids are staged so there is a quicker car in front and a slower car behind so most of the time you get an uninterupted run, where as with the track day's....well you saw the video's. If you are a member of a CAMS affiliated club and CAMS then it's only $115

Do you need a Level 2S license for Modern Regularity, or can you get a 1day license for the event (and will it still be $25) ?

Yep you need a L2S (Speed) licence for modern reg and most other CAMS events, the $25 day licence is the L2NS (No Speed) licence. You can still get a day licence for the L2S but it's $45; the good thing it that that $45 comes of your full L2S licence if you pay the other $45 within a month (the full L2S licence is $90).

If you seriuos about cutting some quick laps then events like modern reg and super sprints if you have a quick car are the only way to go. General track days are alright for learning your vechiele and learning to drive fast using correct lines but there are too many moving obstruction if your serious about track time.

Nah not fixed but this should be the last one till i get some other wheels for it. Not sure if i'll do modern reg now or not. hmm

im goin to come for a look

if anyone needs a tow let me know

I might take you up on that offer, I'm gonna try head out to the Modern Reg if anyone else is going, timed laps FTW!! or i'll just go prac day.

Would you get more track time at modern reg or the practice day before?

You get about the same amount of track time at both, I prefer the mod reg as your timed and get a print out of everyone's times after each session. You also get put out on the track in order of the times set in the first practice session. Last time i went out i was doing about 5 laps a session (I think thats how many laps per session) and never court up to the person in front and never got overtaken. So much better than a track day :) You cant just rock up on the day though, entries must be in by a certain time before the event.

Hopefully if I get these Nismo braided lines on (and brake system bleed and replaced with rbf600), front brake air deflectors put on, ruzic engineering 4wd controller wired up and trans fluid switched to redline lightweight shockproof. If I get all this done, I'll definitely be there for Modern Reg.

Reckon im gonna just do the praccy and also head out to watch the modern comp. Depends if my gearbox holds, as it is crunching 3-4th at high rpm :)

Mine does the exact same crunch changing from 3rd to 4th at peakpower, delay the shift for a second longer and mine doesn't crunch.

ill proba head out to which ever is cranking the most out of sau boys... not entering in any events at this stage due to financial issues but got the whole weekend off

mine does the same. either delay the shift, or double clutch. problem solved without having to buy a new box.

    • That’s a beautiful setup Tao, Have u done any development with the new Turbosmart 40mm electronic straight gate, especially in this G30 configuration?
    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)
