Hi All,

It's that time again for SAU VIC's DECA Motorkhana fun day.

This will be held at the lovely DECA facility in Shepparton VIC.

There will be our usual convoy cruises for both the Friday night crew and early Saturday morning. Of course you can travel in your own time accordingly but it is much easier in a group, and more fun. Previously we were meeting at McMobil on the Hume Hwy but now that the bypass is open it may be more convinient for others so we are all meeting there.

Meeting point address

Shell Roadhouse

Hume Hwy

Donnybrook VIC 3064

Melway 365 C5

DECA Address

145 Wanganui Rd Shepparton

There will be two official convoy's heading up to DECA next weekend.

Friday 24th February - Night convoy

Meet at Shell Service Station, Hume Hwy, Donnybrook - Depart 8:30pm. Paulr33 + Jamezilla to lead the Convoy.

Saturday 25th February - Morning convoy

Meet at Shell Service Station, Hume Hwy, Donnybrook - Depart 5:30am. BassJunky to lead the Convoy.

Some important notes;

  1. Please bring CB radio's to assist in communication during the convoy
  2. This is open to non members if you wish to come up and spectate
  3. We have a wide range of cars running on the day from full race spec cars to daily streeters
  4. BBQ will be provided for specators and competitors with cheap food
  5. Just a reminder that officials MUST be there (at DECA) no later than 8.15am on Saturday morning

The new bypass is excellent and saved us a lot of time on the return trip (didnt use it on the way up). Came back along it when coming back from Hotham 3 weeks back. There are speed cameras on it not that anyone would need to know :) Gutted I am missing this one but roll on May B)

speed cameras? Any between cooper st and the ring road? I use that section almost every week at velocities that needn't be mentioned.

I believe I saw one in that section the only time I've used the bypass so far, in the median area I believe

Inbound, on the bypass, theres a speed camera after every single bridge, they're very obvious though. But my being half asleep at 3am, I almost got caught

are they operational yet? the bypass hasn't been open all that long

I'm not sure...

I was going at 110 through there, after being on the hume at 110, and only saw the camera at the last minute, I braked and I haven't recieved a fine yet, so either they're not functional or I slowed down enough not to get caught...

They're infra-red ones though, because when you drive past them, at the right angle, you can see a weird beam of light. So they have to be working...

so all the new cameras on the westgate fwy etc, and towards geelong, are they point to point or just regular speed cameras?

off topic yes, but you guys were onto this topic already, and I MIGHT come up on saturday for a look, if so, ill be at the shell at 5am for the convoy.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
