Not long now. :wassup:

Whilst its been a while since we saw the GTR's showing the others the way home, and its true that half the crowd and mullet wearing bogans, who else is going this year?

I think I recall some good pics posted on the forum from last years race.

I've got my glod pass, and my pit pass, and since my other half isnt interested in comming its a great opportunity to catch up with a few mates, sink some suds and get a bit messy.

If you are going, drop past and say hi. We usually hang out behind stand G (start finish line) within shouting range of the drinks tent.

We have passes in the Pit Entry stand and will be there for the 4 days. Definitely keen on catching up for a drink - I reckon where Guy said is a good spot - I think that is near the 'Pub Tent'. We should organise a time and/or exchange mobile numbers.

A mate of mine lives on the circuit so we get to be there all day and all night, the party doesnt stop, we even get vehicle access passes to the track which is always fun. Have a look along east terrace on saturday our party is always pumping and we tend to stir up the crowd on the other side of the track by about mid race. Also we never seem to know who won the saturday race till sunday morning. Maybe the kegs have something to do with it.

I didn't make it at all today due to work, and I probably won't be in there by 12 tomorrow, as I have to work in the morning.

Can we make it at 1pm though - which is straight after the Supercars 2nd Practice. Can we meet where u said then?

how about we try for 12:45pm at the Eastern edge of the multi-coloured shade? The 1st Supercar race starts at 2pm so we will have time to have a drink and say hi. Everyone is of course invited.

12:45 is good.

which is the eastern side? We are always on the side closest to the Clipsal Merchandise tent (used to be a smaller beer tent)

I'll have a clipsal hat on (with a chekered flag and tacho) - Anyone got phone numbers? PM me and I will give you mine. (heading in at 9:30)

    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
