Nirimba?

Quakers Hill near Blacktown Matt.

Not really my thing Steveo, I really enjoy the Sutton type stuff but I find Nirimba a bit meh. Sorry, just me............waits for flaming

That's why I very rarely do skids, just don't see the point and also can't afford that much rubber all the time ;)

Fair enough!

It's designed for people to try and do the best time through the course just like Sutton, the difference is at Sutton there's no skids, at Nirimba it's perfectly allowed if the driver wants to do it during their run and smoke the place up.

Matt this is Nirimba. Not as fun as Sutton but it's still great to get the bug out of your system. Most of the guys who go will bring 2 spare wheels and rubbish tyres from their local tyre shop (usually free) so they stuff the free rubber and then have their normal tyres/wheels safely tucked away and not worn out

Ah here's the video I wanted, this is a video made by Eric, sort of gives you a better idea - it's not a burnout comp, there's just a lot of smoke. This is the next club event btw people - entry thread up soon!

Here's what it looks like when you care about your time and dont just muck around

Here is me at Texi answering the big question NOBODY asked! Can you drift a 2004 Subaru Liberty 3.0R?

The answer is no :(

Rwd has to chose between launching or corner speed..

Soften damper on the rear and back off the rear swaybar, if your pro enough u can pre load ur clutch so it doesn't shock the tyres as much

LOL fatz

was that you filming her and vica versa? if so then while your quicker off the line she is far and away a better camera operator! nice little pan down to the kid at the end jenna!

I don't think swaybars do much until you load up a corner or side of the car. I think they do little to nothing to influence traction in a straight line

saw the pics and vids on facebook, looked like an awesome event.

ps: anyway possible to speak with the track owners/insurance to allow ext gate at track days :)

if not then looks like i can only be apart of it if you guys need help on the day.

    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
    • Yeah, my offer was more to show exactly how rough and ready the rig can be and still be useful. Youtube vids will definitely show cleaner setups. Same concept though.
    • I would guess the seal has gone down at the speedo drive and gearbox oil has crept up the drive cable sheath and fouled the speedo head.
