lol I'm thinking of going into the easy group to begin with as my brakes/car setup is no where like the other guys who'll be aiming sub 1:25's. If i see any blue machines or fancy colored cars coming up my rear I'll be definitely making sure they past before moving around

Off the top of my head, the Radical was doing 1:06, Jenkies did a 1:19, tryin to remember more off the top of my head

No major breakages today, nobody getting towed home with stuffed motors or anything is always good

Jenkies managed a 1:18.1, fantastic really. Great day all round, best ever I'd say. To those that missed out, get your asses down to the next one, awesome fun to be had! The feedback on both the BBQ and passenger rides was awesome, so much so we will look into holding another in the near future

Great to hear guys had a blast - sadly I didn't make it at all as work went crazy and time well and truly got away from me :( .... I was busting to go for a passenger blast in Munro's R35GTR or Daniel's Radical as well :( .....

G3TR4G remember that most SAU:SA track days are not opened up to the general SAU community, so if you want to be guaranteed on future days you gotta join up :) ..... it is cheap and easy - and membership has it's benefits :D

Was great to get a ride in Munros R35. Did 2 laps in 2 1/2 minutes from start to finish included slow down. Cant wait to see it go with new turbos. Was good to meet a few new faces. I wish I had more time to see the Radical again. Hopefully I'll be out on the track next time

Looks like everyone had fun out there, good to see that nothing was broken or bent

R32 in the shed would nearly have been ready, pity the owner is broke.

S14 is still a little bit off but that owner is just lazy, hopefully get both of them out to the next track day and cut some laps and some skids

    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
