Here's a video of the end of my 2nd session. :D The sound sucks on both videos. I forgot to hook up my mike. :(

And here's a video of the end of my 3rd session. :D

Thoughts on my trackdays so far. In no order.

1. Need more camber.
2. Need bigger front sway bar.
3. Ready for different brake pads with more bite. The Yellowstuff is alright for starting out. But with more speed, need more brake pad.
4. Oil temps never went above 220F. The outside temps can be 70F to 96F. Oil temps stayed the same. Using the 34 row Z1 cooler.
5. Got to do something with the YAW sensor.
6. Need a different LSD. Feel the stock unit starting to die at the end of each session.
7. The Mich PSS are working well. Need to play around with air pressure more.
8. The engine can take alot of abuse. I've seen 8,500 rpms a few times. :eek: Driver error. :mad:
9. Would like a lighter flywheel and clutch. So that the engine can pick up rpms quicker.
10. Driver still has brain farts. :shakes head:
11. Remember to hook up the mike to the GoPro. :shakes head:
12. No fuel starve with phuck's kit. :)

Just unplug it and be done with it. The event instructors are always leery about telling people to disable traction control because they don't want to be held liable when you wipe your car out, but... the thing really needs to be completely disabled anywhere beyond a very beginner level in practice, at least on this car. It's just ugly and intrusive, and it still screws up your manual control of rear wheel slip on corner exits when the VDC button is turned off (because "VDC Off" doesn't disable ABLS, but pulling the Yaw Sensor does!)

Tire pressures end up being pretty dynamic based on conditions anyways. Get an IR thermo and shoot them at the center and sides (of the tread face) and aim to get even temps all across the surface, and/or chalk-mark the sidewall up onto the tread to see if you're using it right up to the limit of the tread.

Very :eek: - don't blow up your oil pump!

Going from bikes to cars for trackdays. It's a different beast. LOL

Here's a video from my first session from last Tuesday. I caught a purple SRT8 that wouldn't let my pass. So I pitted in to let him go.

Took the Nismo on a long weekend. Only to have it break down. :mad: Think maybe the stock fuel pump went belly up. I can hear phunk's fuel pump prime. But can't hear the stock fuel pump prime. :shakes head: Had to rent a u-haul truck and trailer to get home. :mad: Soon as I get some time. I'll check it out in more detail.

Ouch, sorry man. Did you take a peek at the wiring situation? I know you have to cut the power wire to the stock fuel pump and make a 3-way junction (original path + a side feed to the relay for the new pump), any chance something went wrong with that and the stock pump just isn't getting power?

How much is a day at beaver run? I haven't been there in a car before, just racing on the bike. Do they have a website with a schedule?

How much you running now?

What's the size now?

I didn't see it, light weight pulley set?

Haven't really gotten into it yet. Back at work doing 12hr nights. So next Monday and Tuesday are my next days off. That's when I'll dig into it.

HPDE is $185.00 for the day. They run 3 groups. Group 1 is for the beginners with an instructor. Group 2 is a step up with an instructor. But they can turn you loose with no instructor IF they feel if you have progress enough. That's where I'm at. Group 3 is for the FAST guys that race mostly. Groups 1 and 2 run in the morning. Group 3 is in the afternoon.

Here's Pitt Race's web site. ;)

Pittsburgh International Race Complex

1. I'm at stock camber with a 275/35-19 Mich PSS on the front and 325/30-19 Mich PSS on the rear. Need camber arms so that I can adjust it to where I want it.

2. Have the stock Nismo sway bars on the car. Going to take Dwnshifts advice and go with a stiffer front bar. The Hotchkis is the stiffest. I'll try that next.

3. No lightweight pulley set-up yet.

Wow not a bad price.

You think you'd get better handling with different tires? Keep reading square is better and since stock is 30mm difference and you being at 50mm, seems like a big gap. I'm not sure what my fronts can pack but I'm thinking square now. 285 max because of my 9.5" wheel.

Wonder what whitelines 27mm solid 2 way adjustable bar is, didn't see it on their site.

The diameter of my tires are about equal. 26.6 front and 26.7 rear. My rims are 9.5x19 front and 12x19 rear. Thinking on going with the Mich Pilot Sport Cup+ or the Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires next.

Good news. The Nismo is fixed. Self-inflicted problem. :shakes head: When I installed phunk's road race fuel pump. On one of fuel lines. Where it slides over a fitting. I didn't have the hose clamp up far enough on the hose. This allowed the hose to slowly slip off over a period of time. When the hose came off. It quite feeding fuel to the engine.
