Oh well if it's not needed it's one less thing for people to do for their first track day.

this is it.

Less crap to get out to start with is good.

I should have gone pins by now but just been too lazy

basically once you get serious things like this are needed, but if you want to just try out, good on CAMS for making it easier.

So if I was to rock down with a 500hp car rolling on linglongs and stock brakes with tired pads for DT...she'll be right yeah...??

I can always turn the boost down a little, maybe even splurge on some front pads , or is that not funny :unsure:

Actually - PI is the easiest track in Vic on brakes so it's less of a concern there.

Engine condition (sufficient cooling etc) and front right tyres is what you need to worry about at this place.

lol ARTZ you will be fine. Just make sure the old isn't 50000000000000tly years old and you have plenty of it in the sump.

fyi I have pins, but only recently since things have got a little more serious.

I'm kinda new to track days (only done 2 Winton days and a handful of Deca's) but I'm itching to get on the track to test the cars new power.. Are beginners welcome or is it mostly going to be more experienced people on the track?

Mind you I will probably just be opting for the driver training on the day..

I dont have any tyres so if someone is doing DT and wants an Instructor I would be stoked to get out on the track and try not to confuse you :)

ARTZ, I will check my box of tricks I may have some spare Endless CCX pads for std brakes

Roy your a legend bud..I would take you up on both offers :)

however may have missed the boat...silly me didnt realize cams license was needed for this events..can apply tomorrow but may be too late hey...

Either way I will be there though ..

No worries, thanks for clearing that up mate.

I also don't have a cams license, I printed off the L2S application form & plan on faxing it off tomorrow but I can't see myself receiving my card in the mail in time for the event. I noticed on the last page it has a small cut out at the bottom that says "30-day level 2 license" "This is a 30-day license only, valid from the time your car club rep signs it. CAMS Corporate services will forward your official 12-month level 2 license directly to you."

Am I right in assuming if I bring that small cut out (whilst I wait for my proper CAMs license to arrive) along with a current SAU membership card, a SAU rep can fill that out for me on the day to approve me to go on the track?

yes thats what Ive been told to do too.... :thumbsup:

now all I need to find is my damn membership number ...why people insist on stealing my wallet when I never have any money in it is beyond me :domokun:

you will need your membership card as well.

number is not enough

so when you turn up at the track they will ask for membership card and cams license.

I renewed mine this week when I got the reminder letter, does the membership card have to be current? I only have last year's card...

yes it does.

you should have been sent a letter after you paid your renewal with a new date stamp for it.

Yeah I messaged Dan about a new card 4 months ago, was meant to pick it up at dyno day but couldn't make it..was hoping it would come with my renewal but alas..Have pmd Dan again..Hurry up Dan..I will come pick it up If I have too. ;)

Is that you that made the $5 deposit last week on 5th July?

yes it does.

Hopefully it turns up before next weekend then. Thanks.

    • 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
