Whoa a 2min at the Island with that setup...not bad at all.

My R32 GTSt 1991 Skyline mustered a best 2:01 at the Island...

2 min is the respect time at the Island, just like 1:30 is the time for Sandown respect.

Hi Mildman
I curcut sprint a 1000 coupe runing a A15 producing 100 KW at the flywheel and have never had any oil surge probems runing standard oil pump and sump even at phillip island best time 2 minutes

Still $65 isn't too bad for the year....

NDSOC have $35.00 memberships at the moment check there website

I used to be in NDSOC...have had a year and a half off. I used to drive a Black R32 GTSt.

I was tossing up between NDSOC and NCC? I think it is - Nissan car club.

If you have a schedule of races for NDSOC, and you are able to mail to me I am keen!

My goal is to be able to start racing at the beginning of Jan 06, so I guess I better start joining soon.

Mail or pm details if you don't mind and we can take it from there.

What club will you be joining.
We need some more numbers in the under 1499cc with the marque sports car assoiation as there is only about 4 or 5 of us at most events. Come & have ago there needs to be another 1200 out there.

This is good news!

My first circuit outings will be on a stock motor, unbaffled sump, and I presume no oil cooler. (except for the oil filter). Only mods will be new gaskets all round, new plugs, points, HT leads.

I will make sure it's a Sandown track day and not the Island.

I will be modifying the engine...but will depend on the results of the first couple of track sessions.

I will investigate sump bafflng as well. I'll also check out this L series 'upgrade' more oil can only be a good thing!

I have never had any problems with Oil pressure on the track.
I do plan to modify the oil pump to achieve more oil volume. I think more volume out-weighs the need for a higher pressure.

If you have good oil pressure around 50-60psi as COUP1200 has mentioned you should be fine. One of the things that can kill the A series in competition is oil temp.
You would be best to check your oil pressure and if thats OK then I would be fitting a good quality oil cooler to ensure long life.
Oil volume is something else you might want to consider, if you want a higher volume pump you can modify your existing one by using L Series internals - see "my photos" for details.

My a14 runs at about 50-60psi all day on the track up to 8000rpm with a standard oil pump.
But I also have a baffled sump.
What mods are you doing & what revs are you trying to acheive
