Just putting this out there to anyone interested is that I have a set of Toyo R888s 265/35ZR18 97Y that i will probably not use BRAND NEW.

if someone want/needs them for this weekend let me know and well talk $$$$.

Thanks

Nick

yeah its a bit of a pain but I just don't have the space to fix it while i am building the house. Pretty sure tk80 is out too....cage is half finished :(

On the good side dnissi will be there to keep them honest....he was only a tenth behind me all day and I'm sure will be looking to go faster this time.

i'll be there flying the flag for the nissan badge ;)

so no chasing me for pb's this time duncan :P

should be a good weekend, can't wait :D

do you have a CAMS or AASA license?

My understanding is for a CAMS license you need to present it with a membership card, AASA no. If you are buying one on the day it'll be AASA.

Edited by gregor

I've got both so I'll just use the AASA, but I was more concerned with signing on and the officials trying to make me pay the non-members price because I didn't have a valid members card.

I'm in the same boat - fully paid up as a member but with no membership card or t-shirt or even a sticker to prove it ! I'm hoping Shell is around on the day so I can deflect any questions her way (sorry Shell!)

Unfortunately we haven't had enough interest in the photography DVD for it to be a go'er. Remember folks our photographers come out and trek all over the track to get lots of good angles, then they spend 2-3 days touching up the photos to make sure you get the best product.

We only got 5 people raising interest. I will raise this at the AGM. If we want to continue to have this option as a club then we need to find a way to make sure they get enough to cover expenses and a few extra bucks for their time. Otherwise we are just asking them to do charity work for us.

I'll be there shooting some video for the club to make a video since I'm sidelined.

Awwwww damn.... come on guys! These are great photos!!! Pretty damn cheap as well for what you get :(

Ah the joys of owning a modified import. So my brother little pulsar is having cooling issues that we haven't been able to sort in time so it's not going to make. As a result we're going to double enter my car. Do I just need to sort this out with the scrutineers on the day or do I need to contact someone prior?

You should email or call Don as that affects speed group allocation. His number should be on the emails you got about entry and email is on the entry form. I'll follow up with him when I see him later too.

Don't worry guys I've got the membership statuses all under control.

You guys just relax and have a good time

All my membership stuff arrived today! Thanks Shell et al!

That's a shame Eric, But I wouldn't expect the photographers to work for nothing.

Has anyone asked RENEW if they are interested or if they have a photographer coming to the track?

It is pretty cheap for what you get.

I'm good for another $35 for this photography if it means we can get them there...

We had a similar problem with numbers last event too. Matt did a post on the Renew site but didn't get any response at all.

I plan to discuss this at the SAU General Meeting as the photographers do such a great job, but asking them to spend 3 days doing photos for very little isn't a fair deal. I will try to propose a few alternatives to the club so that we can retain their awesome services.

But this time we will be sans SAU club photography.

Be sure to come to the AGM to voice your opinion on our options.

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
