Who's up for a grip day at Mallala in Januaray or February in the new year?

Just checking numbers before I make some phone calls to check costs etc.

Dunno about you guys, but im itching to get the GTR out on the track while we have some nice weather!

I already have 4 friends interested.

If numbers are down, ive been told we can have a half grip and half skid day??

Interested in a full day of grip, thought you would be limited to 10 with the slip?

yeh im under the impression 20 for grip, 10 for slip.

I would prefer 20 people out there for grip.

*wants to scratch itch*

Nigel atm I'll say I would love to come in Feb but I can't see my GT-R being ready for any grip fun.

But I'll take it as it comes and who knows it might be ready.

Either way I'll come and watch :laugh:

I'm there... just know that me and Steve are organising a club day for a grip session at Mallala in the new year also. Looking around April for the date

I'll hang out for this. I wont take my car out to the track over summer as it doesn't run to well in the heat, April should be nice and cool again.

I'd be keen but don't know whether I'll have the GTR back by then. I suppose I could always take the Peugeot out again.

When you contact Clem see if we can increase the numbers to 24 - ie 3 groups of 8. That way it reduces the cost for everyone and as we saw at the last track day there is a fairly high drop out rate amongst the Skylines as the day progresses. This will be even more apparent if the weather is hot.

sounds like i might be ready for this fingers crossed

shakedown :P

Well. if thats the case Luke, I might as well wait for that day!

Just bear in mind it will be Me +3 (if my mates are still welcome?)

    • Might piggy back off this thread since there's been a good discussion about PWM.   I purchased a Walbro 460 F90000267 and have been looking into PWM to understand it. It was purchased more of a future proof as my original OEM fuel pump died (r33 below 200kw) and figured I'd just upgrade it to this. That's when it hit me that a pump this big can cause more dramas with such high amperage draw and heating of the fuel pump being on 100% all the time in such a mild setup.   I have a Nexus R3 and slowly collecting power mods but I was looking into the PWM feature on the NSP software:   Then looking at the graph from the fuel pump:     Am I safe to assume reducing duty cycle to 50% for example would make the pump run like a 230/lph ? Where does the PWM come in all of this ?   I've gone down the rabbit hole of PWM fuel pumps and it seems there are many differing opinions on how to go about it 馃槄  
    • Thank you, this will keep me busy for a bit.  I will update progression.
    • That specific one would be an exchange part, meaning I'd have to send mine to them. Plus it looks like a non AWD sump, which won't work for me. There is one or two shops in my country that I can ask to do a sump extension job and it'd most likely end up being cheaper than sending mine to AUS or NZ and getting one back, and quicker too.
    • Rear turbo is leaky, most likely at the oil drain. From what I could see with my boroscope it seemed to have seeped out at the very top of that return hose. Is it possible that the oil climbs up that hose to then leak out? Yup, coolant leak on the hot side of the engine, only noticed after seeing clear rusty residue in the block right from the turbo oil feed downwards to the pan, and red droplets hanging from the pan. No clear sign yet from where it comes, and most of the lines there are hardlines right? Last year, seeing those red drops, I thought it was power steering, will be glad if that is not leaky at least. Another leaking hose I found by chance is the lower of the two heater core hoses coming from the firewall to the back of the head. That one is not too bad to get to if I have to replace.
    • I think for response I'm already kind of out there no? he -5s are not the best pick for that as the Internet tells me. Maybe I should switch to -7s while I still can? Though that almost definitely warrants an engine pull along with the other issues I have.
