Very nice!! Any mods to the car? And what iphone app are you using?

Car has Willall full exhaust, project mu pads and fluid and Dodson braided lines.

Using Harry's Lap Timer app with an XGPS 150 Bluetooth GPS receiver which gives 5Hz position updates (mounted in corner of windscreen).

It worked well other than missing the start/finish line once.

I haven't played around with the data yet but it saves your laps in various different formats for various different data analysing programs.

Cost was around $130 for the above and the windscreen mount, I figured this was cheaper than a RaceChrono or vBox type thing.

We went to one of these a couple of years back

Northside are great folks, which is why our new MY12 came from them :)

Yes I can't speak highly enough of Richard and Northside Nissan, we are very lucky to have these people here in Perth.

Are the mu pads any quieter than stock?

I've been plagued with squeeling pads from day 1

I haven't heard anything out of them yet though it is early days. Perhaps after a few street drives since being on track they will make noise. Not sure. I certainly had squeals from the OEM pads though it was only at very low speed and didn't bother me too much.

I am using their "Type HC+" pads.

Great footage mate,i think you fly past my car at one point,it was a great day,nice to see every one having a good time.hope to see you at the next track day,now for that mid-pipe........

Early August for the next one, worth coming along to the Targa West event too, great variety of cars there.

Yes get that midpipe!

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
