Nice to meet you Matt!

I gave $25 to an older bloke in high-vis gear and a notepad with the promise of a photo DVD being posted out

Maybe I should change that to "I donated $25"? :/

Yeah he asked about taking photos, where he could go etc - was a surprise because he had no prior permission from us. Anyway, seems nice enough, I gave him the way to this thread to post some pics

hmm the guy who asked about taking photos was not "older", he was quite young... maybe different guys?

I received the pictures on CD today from the Wakefield photographer and I was pleasently surprised.

The CD had 260 images that were between 2 and 5.5 mg in size and quite good quality. As there were not a large number of cars on the day there is good coverage of all of the cars that were present.

I think it was $25 well spent.

Hi All,

I Just wanted to say a big thank you for a awesome day. It was great to meet some of you. and thanks again John for taking me for that begining run to get to know the track.

I had a blast !! Getting to know the car and the track. Unfortunatly my brother in law was not so lucky (RX8) we had to tow the car back to Sydney.

I look forward to the next event where we can do it all again and I will be sure to make sure he returns as well.

I was also interested in getting some photo's unfortunatly I did not think about it on the day and did not run into the guy in the fluro.

Can someone point me in the right direction of possibly acquiring a copy of them on a CD perhaps? I am would be more than happy to pay for them.

thanks alot Scott (V36)

Staz88 - loved watching your little lotus belt around the track. Great little car those things are :D

Also for everyone else, the next trackday thread will be up over Christmas when I get a chance, I will send a PM/Email to all entrants from this one just gone so you get first opportunity to enter :)

Some pit pics..

Thanks for those

I didnt even know someone was talking a pic of the car at that point

Haven't got the pics from the guy at Wakie yet so nice to see one decent pic of the car even if it didn't have the original wheels fitted

Only 2 videos turned out, a combination of my dad operating the recording button and a battery that wasnt fully charged. Sound is terrible, will be using an external mic setup next time.

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 馃挭馃徏 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 馃ゲ But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
