I get the feeling I may be able to sell my turbos to nick when I eventually do upgrade...

Like hell if it ever got a snail it'd be something f**king huge, like the size of your head huge. You don't buy a v8 to spool dawrf snails

You should feel special mate. I see you the most out of anyone in the car club and thats cause we tend to be the only ones attending/entering in larger scale track days

He is a very special individual.

Don't other guys like Mcfly, Mooncad also attend to track days?

Big call. Depends on what you call larger scale I guess...

Happy laps and powercruise are NOT track days :glare:

Thank you. Someone else sees some sense in this. Hence why I said that it was a big call especially considering that the likes of McFly, Grego, Cadman, Sutty etc run proper sprints.

Is it during day time: yes

Is it on a track: yes

I will agree that happy laps is not a "track day", but don't drag events like powercruise through the mud. It is the upper pinnacle of what it is, and a win there basically puts you one of the fastest usable cars in the state.

Winning/placing at events at "Powercruise" is the be all end all as far as I'm concerned...

I didnt drag them through the mud, if that appeals to you best of luck to you. But the long and short of it is that a track day is, to most people you will talk to around the car scene, an event where you run timed laps of a circuit, so no matter where you place powercruise on your list of priorities it aint a track day, and for example if you were to tell people you do a lot of track days you would get a lot of 'WTFbullshit' and 'whattimedidyourun' looks

Only if you consider a world outside drag racing, which apparently these guys don't

Powercruise can EAD.

McFly, telling it how it is.

I can see the merit in powercruise for those inclined that way but I wouldn't call it a track day. Nick, come to the QR sprints :yes:

I NEVER CALLED IT A f**kING TRACK DAY!!!! :rant:

Spoken like a true narrow minded "purist", have u ever been to one?

I have, it took me a few years to recover, and almost made me part my car and burn the rest just to make sure I was never associated that god awful cesspit of bogans.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
