heys

being a noobie to this whole track thing, was wandering how do u get ur car on a track and how much would it cost.

short of making the two hour drive down to collie for their "drift days" to get some track time and try drift, is there any tracks close to perth, that are relatively cheap and allow for drifting or grip sessions?

only tracks i noe of are ahg, mc, wanneroo and kwinana plex. basically would like info on how to get car on track and for how much.

cheers

SAUWA has an MC team going in for the Winter Series, PM Sneeza if your interested.

We also will be holding another driver training session at AHG in the next couple months.

Other than that, I'd join the WASCC and do track days at Waneroo once a month.

Cheers

Paul

perth performance car club is another good club for some motorsport. ppcc hold regular events that have so far been at the AHG centre doing skid pan and the track. most of us are starting out so the idea is to try a club day at collie and wanneroo etc as we get the numbers.

we have a wet skidpan day coming up at AHG. if you are keen send me a pm and see if we can secure a spot for you. the more motorsport oriented members we get the more motorsport we can do :D

edit: the website is www.perthperformance.com, check out the forums.

all fours and rotaries also run track days, www.allfours.org.au

they have a track day at collie comming up, which has been delayed to august due to the track rebuild down there, they have run waneroo days in the past, but the cost of hiring waneroo 3kish is somewhat preventative to running them now..

joining the WASCC is another way, membership is about $215 according to the website, and renewual is about $180, this allows you to hit the track on tuning days for $40 odd, saddly they arn't very drift friendly, and you'll get a talking to if you try..

your also meant to only go at 80% of your capabilities, no on ever does but they say to only go that hard..

collie is your best bet, just saddly atm, as it has been since the start of the year, they are doing some big upgrades down there, which have been delayed due to weahter and other issues, which sucks, as it'll have been nearly 9 months since legal drifto by the timewe get there in august..

    • 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?
