Hi everyone

Due to a cancellation I have an empty skidpan on Saturday 19th November.

As usual we will be conducting a morning session and afternoon session on both of theses dates.

If you would like to attend a skidpan session please let me know asap as it's first come first served.

Cost is $120 per driver.

As usual we cant allow spectators.

If people are thinking "maybe" about this

I give my personal reccomendation to do it.

Ive been to 2 skid pan, and 1 training day.

Kev & they boys are great to deal with, and excellent instructors.

Your sure to take away more than what you came with.

Plus its legal-sliding :P

Hi Kev,

I am pretty sure I will attend, I will send you can email later. But I'm just wondering if these skidpan days have an instructor and is it a lesson or is it just 120 for you to spend half a day sliding on a skidpan with no guidance?

Thanks

Christof

This is definatly a great day, I had so mush fun last time I was on the skid pan...taught me a fair bit about controlling my car too (well, sideways anyway:)). Well worth the money thats for sure! I'd be there if i could.

cant wait till the next advance driving day gets organised, the defensive one was a BIG eye opener!!

on that note..... I dont mean to "whore" the thread Kevin, but I was wondering if anything has been organised about the last SAU Defensive Driving Course done a while ago with the participants Certificates? As i havent heard anything for ages?

Could you please give us a short description of what is involved and the location of the course, im interested in this saturday

Thanks

We run 6 drivers per four hour course.

We start with a brief classroom session on skid control theory.

Then onto the pan, we generally run the first two drive sessions with instructor in the car with you.

Then we will run a timed motor khana .

Then the last driving session is a freestyle session where the drivers can just have a fang by themselves. :P

Yeah, I know, I asked for everyone to resend me their names for the certs a while ago coz some of the hand writing on the attendance sheet is pretty hard to make out.

    • Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this   
    • For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....
    • Oh, yes. If you connected it to the manifold your first drive would be very eventful. Very shit. Very interesting. Perhaps take a video if you feel the need to see. Terminating the breather at the top of the bellhousing is normal/stock. Some gearbox lubes (hello Redline Shockproof) like to foam up a bit and require the breather to be extended up higher, so you don't get spots of smurf jizz staining the floor under your car. Mine is thus right up behind the head. Make sure you fit a u-bend at the top so it points back downward so that dirt and schmutz has a harder time getting into it.
    • Cheers for the replies. So i don't connect it to the manifold I just run the hose high up on the firewall?
    • It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
