big thanks to all the organisers and volunteers for getting this day up and running, had an absolute ball, the car went hard all day and shaved 2 seconds off my best time from last year

also thanks to Brian for taking me for a spin in the corvette, such a beast, and to Mark (Staz88) for sitting shotgun and teaching me how to spin out like a boss, ended up shaving off those 2 seconds straight up next timed session. Hopefully Luke got some footage from that passenger session, was quite fun

Cant beat the last session of the day though which we all seemed to treat as a fun session, jez blasting past me through the esses twice, and bighead overtaking me up the hill....... sideways....... was pissing myself laughing when i saw him coming in the mirror

hey mate the first lap in my video is the passenger session your talking about you can see the dust i think as i come out of the esses. If not ill review more footage and make sure i put it up lol

i had my camera and go pro, but in the end cbf putting them on the car

someone dropped the ball and didn't bring the club go pro's so no vid's :(

if i knew you were wanting to use one i woulda lent you mine

first time ever being on track @ smsp

had a great time was not to fond of last flag Marshall she was very flag happy in the passager sessions .

Happy with my time just can't wait to beat it

Highlight of the day was seeing FATZ in a passenger session split 2 cars down the middle on the straight right infront of all the marshals and i was near dave with his radio and i hear "WE NEED TO FLAG THE SESSION! THESE GUYS ARE GOING ALL OUT NOT 80%" i lost my shit hahahaha!

how many boys ran semi's? be keen to know how the street tyres ones fared

I was running 2x worn Dunlop on the front, 1x kumho and 1x maxxis on the rear.

They were getting slippery when the track was getting some heat into it.

Hence, I called it a day.

My tires were maaad lol. Not as much power as other cars but i was running on the front 1x potenza re001, 1x potenza re002. And the rears were parelli Pzero's All second hand my tire shop gave them to me $25 each 235/45/17. Very good and they have about 60% tread lol.

I had semis on the front and chalk on the rear, hence overly tail happy very dodgey on all runs, will roll and pump the rear guards so i can fit the semis next time and maybe even get an alignment done rather than using my eye to align the rears... Lol!

Apprentice wage sucks assssss!

Anyone got pictures of the flaming Nur?

KC, hope you're feeling better mate. Even though you lost your pride and joy, it could have been worse, you walked away from it.

    • We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning. 
    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
