it is an issue. they have effectively built a racetrack around public land and are not paying appropriate rent for it because the land rests in a trust of which 40% of the controlling vote are members of the MRC.

we dropped in on the way past and it's a fair shithole and could be used far more effectively.

im not defending the racecourse members club, just seemed silly to suggest the space could be used for childrens sporting clubs and that 400 kids missed out on playing sport

Can't comment as it may or may not be true, but there are a LOT of ovals in that area

Basiclly I did everything stupid you can do.

That was 100% my stupidity.

I've done a bunch of driver training for newbies first thing I tell them you never set a record lap first thing in the day.

Take it easy warm into the track and then start pushing it.

So first thing on a 2 day track da, on a cold greasy track with cold semis I hit the throttle

Don't blame the car.

On a plus note car looks crap but still straight and still is happy doing laps and or limiter bashing on skid pans.

I knew tassie was having electricity issues since December, and had heard things were being kept a bit hush hush.

Dams there are under 15% capacity and apparently using around 1% a week, supposedly they can run to a theoretical 6.5% but has never been done before. A few big industries have been asked to shut down and apparently are being compensated. That, plus big back-up generators are being put online would cost a fortune. Hiring a big-ass generator is costing $20mil and will cost $11mil per month to run. ouch.

Over 300MW of power comes from wind, which apparently operates at 40% capacity on average.

Temporary diesel and gas generators are being organised or have already been turned on, and a 200MW temporary generator puts into perspective how small a part wind really plays. You cant rely on that shit in an emergency!

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
