That's right boys and girls, finally we've managed to get the time to organise our first track day. It will be a grip day and we will be holding it on the 12th of April, which is a Monday so start booking that time off!

The total cost for the day will be $200 PLUS an extra $25 if you don't have a CAMS license because you WILL need one. Application is available on the day so there's no worries there, just make sure you have the green stuff in hand :( Spots are first for SAUSA members, then the rest to the general public so join up if you aren't one, it's only $45. Deposits will be needed as we need to secure the track, this will be half of the full amount (so $100) and will need to be payable by March 1st. The remainder must come in the following weeks. This is a first come first serve event so those who put the cash in are the ones that come. You stuff around, you may lose the spot. There's a total of 22 spots for this event and promises to be an AWESOME day.

Thanks for the clarification there Damo :banana:

Adrian, no worries buddy, so long as people communicate with me, we can sort out and work around things if money is short. I understand life comes and knocks you on your ass with bills. If you have a problem, get in touch, we will sort it out :P

lol, writeoff I hope youve got working 12v feed to your cig lighter - mine doesnt exist anymore (re- lap timer)

just need to rebleed brake fluid, zip tie cables throughout the inside, then get to the tuners

next time out it'll be kitted inside properly

Yay! GTR is fresh off the rollers, and I am much more impressed with the result this time around!

333.2kw, and 555nm torque at 6000rpm. Much more pull in the mid range than ever before!

I just need to bleed brakes, and fit my new tyres and I'm ready!

Adrian's car on the other hand.... is still sitting on jack stands in my Garage.... :thumbsup:

What happend to the $1.50 cage?!

thats been cut up, and will be using a few bits from it.

whats leftover can go to the metak-man for a $ back :)

Just heard from the GSR EVO Club Committee Re; Timers.

They want a $500 deposit on top of the hiring cost which i will cover (I think next time the SAU:SA club can cover the finances and i'll just organise it, if they want to offer them), They also want a form signed accepting liability for any damage. I will get 13 copies of the form that i will sign and everyone that used a timer will have to sign it so if any damaged is caused to the timers the user will be up for the replacement cost.

Is there anyone that can help out with moving the track car around next week? ie: anyone with mates in the towing biz, or have access to a car trailer?

Adrian and I need to organise a tune at Turbo Tune at Edwardstown, and a wheel alignment at Port Adelaide, and obviously the car cannot be driven on the street. We aren't sure which days will we need transport yet, as we don't know when the car will be ready to roll out of BITSUS Customs, and how long it will be at the tuner's for.

any ideas/suggestions welcome.

cheers.

Nigel.

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
