Excuse my ignorance but what is at the speed dome? Did a quick google search but only really saw a velodrome there. Is there a track there that I can't see? Would be keen if it's decent!

The roads to the right of the dome is what we use.

It's a short course, but it's a lot of fun.

It suits people who are new to competitive driving because there's a lot of space to make a mistake.

It's quite good fun, with a few different track variations available.

Quick cars do most track layouts in 1:10 to 1:20.

Short runs, but you get to have lots of them so it's good practice.

Hi would be keen on it. It will be my first time playing a track in Aussie. Done it in Sepang and Pasir Gudang Malaysia before coming over to perth 2 yrs ago. Let me know. Might have a mate or 2 who might be keen.

Thanks off the reply Jay, might give it a miss. I've done a few track days at Mallala (SA) before and prefer a higher speed track. Don't think I'd be cracking 200km/h there although I agree-would still be heaps of fun.

Still keen as and will be committed to it but I won't be able to check if I'm free from work or not until a date is released for this event.

I'm not working on these following June weekends;

4th/5th

18th/19th

Will be away for work during the others.

Cheers

Still waiting on an answer regarding the availability of the venue. Lame slowasses!

I check this thread regularly, so don't for one second think I've forgotten all about it.

I'm keen to get out there again myself!

Ok guys, the weekend of the 4-6th June might be a go, with the day being either on the sunday or monday.

I'm in the process of finding out the schedule for the next month or so, so the final date is TBA.

Watch this space!

    • Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.
    • As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.
    • get some flares on them, or wider guards haha
    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
