And if you are buying tyres shoot me an email. I will be back in July for a wedding ...so if we buy three or 4 sets it would be great if we could get them for 20 or so less a tyre. What are they these days for a 255/40/17 and 245/45/17? $400???

gonna take the 32 to sandown for its first outing, hopefully it can complete a session unlike the silvia

hey troy, what was your car like noise wise..?

[Roy]

Trouble, in the morning sessions I used to shirt shift and only use part throttle on boost on the front straight. It was hard to go any quicker then 1:28-1:30, but was good opportunity to check tyre pressures and get some practice on lines etc in. Then after the lunch sessions normally i would get two sessions in. If they EPA ewre still around i would be warned then kicked off....but that only happened twice. Generally they are gone after the morning sessions and you then have the afternoon to go as hard as you dare.

Thats part of the reason with the new setup i am going plumb back. Not sure if its going to help sincei have a titanium exhaust, but the second or so morning session is normally the quickest session of the day and its good to get 4-5 proper sessions in rather then waste the morning by tootling around

Hey all, Newbie to SAU.

Definitely want to take the R32 to this meet.

Do I need to organise my CAMS before the event? Or can I bring the form and get it done on the day?

If the later, what do I fill in as my competition license number on the entry form?

First SAU event for me & the car so super excited!

Cheers!

[Downforce]

maybe a bulk a050 purchase is in order.

I'd be down for that maybe later in the year. been meaning to try out the new advans

Do it before the event mate. Just put TBA on the form and give them licence number on the day

straight pipe?

shame about the noise restrictions, EPA are always killing fun.

if anyone wants a bit more meaning out of the 75db at 30m restriction, here's a link that can calculate that into another db figure at a different distance.

I see in the supp reg form something called "Driver training". Is that happening? Might have a shot at that if its running.

troy was talking about his screamer from the gate being vented to atmosphere. my new car has the same turbo setup that he has on the 32.

i think i might get a pipe made up to plumb mine back into the exhaust if i get done for noise.

Cheers Russman!

Have sent in my CAMS today and will register online for the event this arvo!

Bringing my R32 GTS-t down, pretty much stock, just want to turn a few laps to find out where I need to spend some money and to have a bit of fun!

I could bring my mustang down for a laugh but think I'd rather have something that stops & turns!

Catch you all there!

ah nice, will have to wait till my car is 100% running, cant guarantee it will be ready by race day. So might do a late submission once I know car will be ready.

[ssxRicho]

its not a 'race' so no need to have the car 100%

ha

Might need some advise from all you "experts" on the day about setup and mods! Last thing I'd want is a mx5 repeatedly beating me!!!!!

[Adz]

Damn damn damn im in Sydney. Car could be ready too and I think its got a 17 in it.

Are driver trainings timed?

Cheers
