....damn that drive home was so hardcore. I hated every minute of it. My car was aquaplaning all over the place so I literally had to drive at 65km/hr all the way back to Sydney!!!

:P well done on the win

but :talktohand: about the drive home Mr 4wd sports car driver.....I was towing the datto home with a Ute in that....pretty average drive.....

LOL...we have a new leader.:P

Your car was very impressive the way it was getting out of the final corner and hauling down the straight. I was a little worried earlier in the day when you said you were only doing 1:27s:( , but not surprised to read 1:23s because your car looked visible quicker then Snowman and Scotsman

Circuit Name: Sandown

Lap time: 1:36.1 speed limited to 190kmh :edit 24-10-04: new lap time 1:31.6. Hoped to go faster but for a slow M3 and even slower TVR Griff spoiling me for 4 flying laps straight.

Troy, that'd be 1:31.6 for skylinegeoff :cheers:

Hey there,

sounds like you guys had a great day at Sandown.....

Only 5 weeks to the wedding for me and then after that I can start coming to met some of you guys at track days.....

Any GTS-T's running at Sandown????Times??

Do you guys run with NDSOC??

I saw a GTR and a GTS-T up at Winton with the WRX club when I was up there a month ago running in my standard MX-5. Was that any of you guys ???

James

Brutus - if the GTR was a white 33 with black rims it was Frank. He's a wrx club member and his car is well sorted.

Next year SAU Vic will be running with the WRX Club track days much like the MX5 club and the Liberty club has done previously.

I have run a few times this year with the NDSOC but I find their days a little slow and disorganised - probably because they keep having to pull cars out of the kitty litter or clean up the oil spill from some old datto every session. LOL

As for the GTS-T's running at Sandown last time - most were around the mid 1.30's with skylinegeoff's 1.31 being the best time - none of them were running on semi's however.

Off topic but I need the help from you guys in this thread who track your Skylines. I am getting 130 oil temps every time I go out on track, 5 hot laps and I am forced to come into pitt. Is this normal? Yes I have an HKS oil cooler. The thread I have started is here, thanks in advance for any help you can loan me!

First time out, its a pissy time, but then again nearly a stock R31 with 330,000km on the clock.. lol :rofl: Just here for reference I guess for anybody else with an old r31

Go Gordo. Were the other times up there by stealth 1:04 or 104 seconds?

Nizchick good effort but cheater tyres at the back is ...well..cheating ;)

So how is the track surface? Still bumpy as ever at the end of the pit straight? Just thinking ahead to coming home to Brisbane in Jun/Jul and getting new shocks.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 馃檪 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
