Here's Duncan and I, having a bit of fun with our in-car from the recent Mt Buller Sprint

(well you can't expect anything Duncan's associated with to be serious).

For the first time ever, hear what the nav actually says and what the driver actually hears during a competitive rally stage :wub:

Mt Buller In-Car: Handley & Handley

*UPDATED*: For those with short attention spans... here's the prologue :)

Great video Kel...maybe next time, lose the music so we can hear ya a bit better.

Music and Incar don't really go together unless you dont have intercom audio. As an added benefit we get to hear that RB sing :D

I wish mate....all I can hear from her is white noise!

nah we are just having a bif of fun, I actually do pay attention to Kel and she did an amazing job with the calls.

and the poor old rb wasn't singing....7psi thu a gtr is more like a crime than singing :D We will have it sorted properly next time.

The real gold would have come if we'd had sound from Duncan - something we're getting sorted for Lake Mountain.

We had a very sophisticated set up at Buller, consisting of the cam mike taped to the side of my helmet after having adaptor problems.

This was a fairly tame run. On a few of the later ones I was telling D to fark off and pay attention to me (along with some other choice phrases!).

Running the same road over and over makes these drivers a bit cocky and D was calling some of the corners before we got near them (and calling them mostly wrong mind you) :D

Will post some serious (no music) runs when we get our issues with uploading to Youtube sorted.

Wish I knew it was you guys off here - I was the guy that found and returned your Buller Sprint "ID" Kel! :D

Ahh thanks again for that and sorry we didn't know you were there - would have been good to catch up with another SAU-er!

So you were supporting Danny Cerro and Bianca in the Evo? We were speaking to those guys toward the end and they were really bringing down their times (dropping a minute from memory?).

Yeah, I was. They did drop a minute between their first and tenth run. More importantly, they kept themselves and the car in one piece.

Definitely the most important thing as it's not a road to be messed with as many discovered, including our mates in the TR7:

TR7 Off @ Buller

They were pretty lucky- just stuck on the bank with no actual damage to the car.

They did have a moment though when the exhaust heated up some dry leaves!

      There are fixes for this. In industry we use compressed air for everything. It is frequently wet, and many things cannot tolerate it. So there are various forms of driers available that you can install. The simplest option for something like this would be a dessicant drier. Much cheaper to replace some silica gel than actuator cylinders.

      That's a solid update mate, well done at WA FOS. You may already know this, but the actuators on the paddle shift are a service item and are sadly not that reliable. As I understand it they collect water from the compressor (condensation) which then rusts the bores/pistons in the actuators. A mate of mine had no end of trouble with them in one if his circuit cars, apparently it's a 'known issue'. Buy a couple of spares at great expense to ensure you never have any problems with the ones you've got! Any clues about what the new WTAC rules might be? While faster cars are cool the Pro class arms race has got to the point where you wouldn't even bother entering without a $1m budget and even then I don't think you'd win.

      Question about R34 GTT A/T Solenoids

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      https://nissan.epc-data.com/skyline/er34/3945-rb25det/trans/317/31940N/ The pictures of the part you're talking about is clearly not just one solenoid. You can see another picture of it here: https://www.alltranz.com.au/shop/drivetrain/automatic-transmission/RE5R01A/product/9305/ The 4 speed automatic in the GTT is Nissan corporate stuff. You can search up similar jobs done on a Frontier or Pathfinder with a RE4R01B to get an idea for what the internals are going to look like and the procedure like this:
