Sau Nsw Oran Park South Track Driver Training Day


Recommended Posts

haha good stuff. you'll really notice the different running on semis too.

I think the biggest difference will be getting rid of that "knock knock knock" noise... ROFL

The fun starts tomorrow...

Rip old motor out and get the head setup off it...

Then I gotta wait till I can pick the block up mid week... Then put it back together...

Then see if it runs... Then rip a skid... See if it'll still run... Then see if it goes on the day of race day... ROFL

17 day dead line to replace a motor... And the only thing I've got at the moment is a dead motor... ROFL

Nope, you don't need to be a member of any club, but membership to SAU-NSW can bring you cheaper entry into future events we hold, if you're keen, so it is worth your while!

Just being a part of the club is worth while, not just for cheaper events.

Mind you, the cheapened Merch is also well worth it... :O

damn it....

Weekend before Bathurst so we don't know if Dave is working all weekend or not :)

Annnnnnnd I am about to put my car up for sale, so really shouldn't be taking it too the track .... should I ?

But all in for helping on the day guys :down:

^^ knowing my luck.. Dave and I will manage to break the unbreakable... lol

Il think about it though... Il more than likely cave and at least enter for one of us to drive it :)

Yes, yes you should be taking it to the track.

It's your car until money is exchanged and signatures put on rego transfer! Take it and have some fun... Rip an epic skid, and show Steve how much he can't drive your car... ROFL

no, the pic isn't old, but your epic fails are

I agree, so far I have driven home from all of my track days. My fails aren't epic enough :)

EDIT

and now that I have said that, my car is going to die at this track day :ninja:

Come on kiddies get in for an awesome day!

If all the moons and stars align in my favour i should be there in the Failvia running full slicks for a giggle.... BUT time will tell :D

As for all you others, DO IT!

ahahhahaha

I'd love to come to this, but I've got skirmish the day before and i'll probably be too buggered to drive all day... :P

Nah man, you'll be fine the next day.

Skirmish doesn't tire you (Well me anyway) as much as people say

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
