Hey All,

Just letting you know the HSCC website has been updated, along with the Drifting Tasmania website

http://www.hobartspo...org/events.html

http://www.driftingtasmania.com/

Please find attached to this post the full calendar.

I for one am keen as hell and you should all be too! Skylines make excellent track cars in all forms whether it be 100% stock standard to balls out hardcore modified and everything in between and we should all take advantage of our brilliant cars and have a tonne of fun.

If you are new and are interested but have a few questions please feel free to post up here so that others may benefit from the answers or alternatively you can send me a PM and I'll do my best to point you in the right direction.

:mad: Only one timeattack and I'm not gonna be ready! Are they planning to use this as a tester and include more if the numbers are there or?

If it's popular, they'll do more no doubt.

I know its a bit late but do you have to join the LCCT to participate, cos on the calender it was down as Club Day Supersprint. I'm already a member of HSCC and don't really want to have to join another.

Also is Supersprint basically just time attack? I watched it at Baskerville a couple of weeks ago and was a bit confused because they were using the starting grid and starting all the cars at once.

Super Sprints is 4 cars on the track at a time, starting from the grid, fastest lap wins, you get like 4 laps.

Time attack, the track is open for like half an hour and you have to knock out a lap in that time with as many pit stops as you want.

Unless the event says something like (CLOSED TO CLUB) then any member of any CAMS affiliated car club can participate.

very much so :) it's just 4 cars on the track at a time, smash out a few laps and come in! heaps of fun and they'll put you against people who are getting similar times\levels of experience

Do it mate, you'll have the time of your life. Remember you have to get CAMS licence and club membership too, 99% of the time you can get it all on the day.

    • I wouldn't look too hard at what they did with the R32 GTR in endurance racing in Australia... Lots of things weren't actually available from the factory in the way those cars ran them... Japan also followed what Fred Gibson was doing here with some of there endurance cars in Japan... Australia is also the reason for things like the Brembo brakes, and the change in the gearbox... And quite a few other tricks they used to pull. There's a few other SAU peeps still on these forums that will have heard the stories direct from Alan Heaphy, Fred Gibson, and Jim Richards when we were lucky enough to have a great dinner with them
    • For all the talk of "these parts are junk" I generally recommend OEM because it's really not as bad as claimed. I have never seen or heard of a case like the N63 where the oil returns completely clog with coked oil for example in ~10 years or less. Would it be nice if it were a straighter path? I guess, but most modern cars use a scavenge pump instead of a pure gravity return. Also the factory lines that would be relatively simple to convert to braided are generally speaking hardlines from the factory. I would consider braided line to be a regression, not an improvement. It's also been engineered such that all the hardlines have appropriate strain relief where needed. There's absolutely room for improvement, for example the HKS advantage heritage intake piping shows just how much can be done to make the turbos fight each other less in OEM twin turbo configuration and reduce compressor surge but it's rarely a simple/straightforward process. I recommend looking at what the group A/N1 cars did, generally speaking the changes they made were necessary and proven in endurance racing.
    • Yes, multi relays needed, and possibly a diode. I'm not actually going to think about it though.
    • So I'm confident in saying its TCS thing. My new cluster I never realized didn't even have bulbs in the TCS or Slip slots. Shining a light through the backside that black plate has nothing for it, unlike my original cluster. Looking at the service manual the only thing that stands out is TCS in relation to the vehicle speed, it has nothing to do with turbos. It sadly looks like I may just need to get the appropriate cluster.
