Hi all

Nice to see you all entering

Strictly we prefer people to be a member of a real club for all our events ... keeps the problems away (but if known by people here its fine by me)

For CAMS registered events you must be a member of an affiliated club with them ... well you cant get one of their licences without that. anyway.

Re the Bonnet tie downs .. i think a modern two stage one should be ok.

But I have seen modern cars lose whole bonnet at Winton.

Tying it down is worth while just to make sure.

If you do a lot of track work its worthwhile putting in pins (just make sure they are into real metal).. because i have seen car where they pulled out

If the Scrutineer (who is high level CAMS one) says it needs extra I have to accept his ruling (he outranks me ;-( ).

Currently 36 entered .. i am going to lose money, but you are going to have a lot of track time

Bl00dy Hell those photos of Richo's wrecked car .. it looks much worse than the other photo i saw.

Well it looks like the new wheels i bought don't clear my brakes.... owned! so unless i can arrange other wheels with the right offset that fit my guards AND clear my brakes then i will miss this round.... bollocks :down:

... which was dependent on my car being ready Ash. I had everything organised, but i found out on Friday that Enkei wheels are fkn gay and don't clear my new alcon's so it's either change the brakes or the wheels. I like the brakes so i have to arrange different wheels, in less then a week it's not going to happen. I have 2 sets of te37's at home, none of them will fit this car. I also now have a set of brand new Enkei rpf1 wheels and Advan AO50's which i have no use for. Excellent. So call it a backpaddle if you think the description fits.. I would be there if i could get another set of wheels, and fit the brakes on the car before the cutoff time to enter.

keeping the tyres though right?

i'll sell the tyres too if i can't find suitable 17" wheels to put them on.

For sale thread here if you know anyone interested :Dhttp://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/352979-enkei-rpf1-17-x-9-22-brand-new-1400/

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
