almost forgot, an extra sorry to the poor girl I nearly sent through the windshield after fixing the cones when I took you for a run, I didn't get your name.

Had a friend take some photos but camera memory card got corrupted when we plugged it into the comp :cool:.

The 2 r32's doing the drift run was amazing to see that level of car control. Also thanks to Ryan for helping with my car you need to teach me to drift like u.

What a weird way to pick up some one up :D haha

Thanks organisers! Thanks volunteers! Thanks other people who turned up and raced around making loud noises in their cars. was a fun day!

thanks to photographers! I always want to lash out and get a decent camera after looking through pics from these days!

You definatly had the cleanest car on the day, and again, love the number plate :D

clean ie; bog stock :cool:

half makes me wish I wasn't fooling around with skids so much :blush:

the mind boggles if only my swaybars had arrived in time :D

again can't thank everybody enough for how smoothly and well run the day was you know who you are and you did awesome!

32.75 on morning course 2..... and that was in the morning when the track was still wet.... top gear style 32.75 WET time lol

4th overall, very pleased on my first event

not to mention tied 1st in the battles event..... ( and quietly beat a gtr and an s13 with his tein suspension stickers :cool: lol. But i did loose to a woman, although she had the advantage of 550bhp)

seriously it was an awesome day and i hope we are allowed to use nirimba again....

DOOOF I NEEDS TYRES NOW, money going into bank acount sometime today

OK this is summarising the results the best I can...I think there might be some timing errors in here because, for example, Mat Bentley who didn't make it beat Paul Lewis :cool: Anyway we can work on that for next time...

Congrats to the winners, its a really mixed looking with some first time competitors placing very well :D

I wish oh how I wish I wasnt called into work :cool:

sounds like it was a wicked day, congrats to the guys n gals running the day.

actuslly...kinda glad I didnt go in a way...would have made me want to buy another skyline!!! lol

I did a similar scoring to Duncan's but instead used points scores per timed event (excluded the battles). So 50 points for best time, 49 points for 2nd best and so on.

Based on that scoring model here are some more results (I suggest you pick which ever one is best for you) :cool:

Here is a video I took during the day. Was playing with the slow motion feature of my new digital camera. It turned out really spiff - wish I could have spent more time taking more video but was too darn busy putting down skids :cool:

Is is just me or is YouTube slow as!

(put a sound track on it last night since slow mo disables the audio).

Here is a video of my GTR doing Course 2 - more slow mo:

Another video of a battle between my R33 GTR and a Silver R32:

me sideways... never thought i'd see teh day!

awesome pic thanks!!!

ps. I didn't even see you there all day!!!!???

Liz, I have a video of you beating the MX5 - shall I put it on youtube? (Jeez its slow to post vids there)

    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging. Cheers 
    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
    • Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
    • @dbm7 and @GTSBoy thank you both very much! will give that a shot!
