think your confusing the drift prac at AIR with this 9krpm.

this is a open track day isn't it?

My car is no good for drift mate. It's a drag and circuit car. :)

It will be nice if we could all catch up and do a few laps at Lala

I'd ring and check if you guys are planning on going to a friday session.........

There was supposed to be one today, but as a certain forum member found out after getting there car fully prepped, its for cars racing on the sat. and sun. only

Id say at this stage November may be better than me rushing to get my car out there, then finding out i forgot something :D

Ive got a stackhat, (gunna wear me motogloves too for that non sweaty hand driving techinque :)), and a fire extinguisher...

All i need now is some of that wang power :O

Fellas Practise days are generally on a Saturday, On these practice days they have Bikes, Superkarts, Open Wheel and Tin Tops, you get 5 15-20 min sessions in the day.

Also there is a Modern Regularity comp, you get 1 practise and 5 heats and they are run on Sundays(not every Sunday) in conjunction with the Superkart rounds. In this comp you nominate a time and try and stick to it.

Check the Mallala website for all dates.

I think it will be more fun to attend the regularity comp as your runs get timed. The infrared beacon is switched off during open practice day.

I am keen for November as well. The weather won't too stinky hot and the track is not cold/wet either.

November the 11th would be much better.

The Improved Production National Championships are on 12/13th November, so I assume Friday 11th would be a private practise day for competitors. For the SA guys, the BSM team are bringing the GTR. Pop out and say g'day.

:D cheers :P

Awesome.. :)

I will have to give them a buzz to check if it is indeed a private practise day.

    • Does it make a difference in your turbo having a shorter life if you have a cat converter as it causes that back pressure versus less/no back pressure with a decat? (Not sure if this is accurate) Also slightly different question if you went from a oem cat to a decat or vice versa will it require a tune? I heard if you change the dump pipe onwards it requires a tune?
    • No. Have only gotten as far as contemplating the task of having to put in the required fairly heavy wiring and fusing to run it (along with the big alternator), and preferring not to. But otherwise, it would be nice to have a little extra freedom as to exactly where the compressor is located and free up some space around the exhaust side of the engine.
    • Following from this in a related by not closely-related sense... Because I was buying a bunch of other GKTech stuff, I got some rear subframe collars. The history that leads up to this is: 25+ years ago the car arrived into the country with stock subframe bushes. At some point shortly thereafter I added Whiteline pineapple rings, set up neutral, and it improved the rear end behaviour. Well, it is my vague memory that I was happier with it with them in. Less axle tramp on launches, generally better, etc etc. ~2012 it got a new non-HICAS subframe with new stock bushes. No pineapple rings. I reckon that ever since then I've been dissatisfied with the axle tramp. Recently I've been f**king around a lot with all aspects of the suspension. One contemplation has been to relocate the rear lower control arm front mount points (and do the other things needed to make that work) to improve longitudinal rear grip by getting rid of some of the stupid anti-squat that Nissan ladled into the R32. But.... before doing that I thought I'd put some collars in. And.... The collars are good. The rear sounds a little bit different, but there has been no significant increase in NVH coming up into the body. In terms of rear behaviour - expansion joints on long sweeping elevated freeway ramps that would sometimes cause the rear to jiggle around a bit, no longer seem to do so. It appears that jamming chunks of metal into the gaps in the rubber so they can't move much is a really good thing. And the launch behaviour and general forward traction situation seems to be greatly improved too. It's impossible to be really sure, because the tyres are completely shagged - they are freakishly willing to let go right now. But as an A-B test with the same tyres it certainly seems to grip up a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone who still has stock bushes.
    • Bit off topic maybe but has anyone had a crack at one of those aftermarket electric compressors ? Bit of a search came up with one put out by Speedy Air Spares. Looks interesting and looks as if you'd have to run a big arse alternator. Found this out after the fact as my air con compressor packed it in and soon after my alternator ! !
    • Yes. Needs new ports. Usually just achieved by screwing an adapter onto them. Be aware that any AC compressor that hasn't been used in a long time will very likely have dried out seals and will not hold gas. Oh, and obviously you will require a new receiver-dryer also.
