nar, i am just starting the build... it is still practically stock atm... getting a 6 point cage soon and a proper race seat and harness set-up(6point)..

i did FOSC Bathurst last month (BEST TRACK EVER! 231km/h in a basicly stock motor 1.8L N/A is awesome down conrod :D) and have been competing in NSW CAMS Super Sprint topping my class (2b and faster then 3B) now i am more hooked then ever and want to get in to proper racing :D being just 19 yrs of age is the perfect age... got in to it through my old man as he is very much in to the track scene with his modified 90' MX-5 Turbo..

Joined up as a mate (MattD) told me 2 join up and 2 see if i could make it to some Canberra event you guys are holding.. but cant make it this yr maybe next yr when they car is closer 2 completion ;)

Have you thought about production cars not improved production? We have a class for fwd and there is already another integra in it. Cheaper than IP because less mods are allowed. Should be great fun either way

I plan on getting my cams license soon (L2 speed) and starting out in some club sprints/trackdays etc.

I also have a question regarding insurance. I am currently on my p's and i'm looking to get some insurance for my car (S13 Onevia).

Are shannons more likely to give me insurance because I have a cams license/compete in club/track events even though I'm on my P's and under the age of 25?

I had Just Car insurance on my previous car, and I was very unimpressed with their customer service/cover etc..

Just renewed my National Rally Nav Licence.

Paid extra for their super quick processing and it still took over 3 weeks for it to arrive in the letterbox grrrrrrrrr

CAMs could learn a thing or two from AASA when it comes to licencing.

hmm and as usual for cams "rush" license it literally turned up the day after you left for the event. glad we paid extra for that "service"

the dickheads can't even send out licenses on time, its no wonder people would rather deal with aasa.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
