Thanks for a fantastic day guys, you run a damn fine day and I can't wait to go back and give it another go.

It was a huge challenge running against your cars.

I reckon the battles in the afternoon were a hoot, I think it would be better than 'knock out'. It was cool with everyone lining up their own little battles with each other.

Thanks for making feel welcome.

Greg, silver MX5.

Also Juz... I had breakfast at Tiffany's this morning :D

I'm sooooo Jealous, I want breakfast at Tiffany's and everything else from Tiffany's. Next year I'm expecting you'll hook Dane up so I can enjoy some of these swish events!

As the only girl who drank 2 - I feel like I should get something dammit!!!

Bec I didn't realise you drank two aswell, great effort.

And Snowy you know how much I loved the last three runs of the day. Well the neck busta has busted my neck!

Yesterday I went to work and couldn't look left so I went to an osteopath who told me I need to where this stoopid neck brace and lay down flat for two days. Hence why I haven't been able to even see the results till now.

The weekend was still worth it but I look like a cripple!!

Also I prefer the timed runs rather than the knockouts.

I'm going back to bed now.

Who's Gonna Host Them?

They are coming out of my Laptop thick an fast now!

I think around 200 mb should be enough

When I get back from Uni, I'll set up an FTP for the vids, I'll send you a PM when it's done.

darkeh, speaking of uni, are you at latrobe bundoora?

aaaand... my hunt for the elusive DV cable should conclude today with a trip to jaycar. so vids forthcoming. Now if only I can work the soundtrack to collin mcrae rally into the video.

just put some classical music in there :D

whose kakimoto widebody 33 is that? awesome

If you mean the red thing with puffy guards and badly slipping clutch :confused: .. that was me.

I ended up stuffing the clutch so bad on my first skidpan run that we had trouble even getting up to 80 km/h on the drive home, it took a lot longer to get back home than on the drive up there that morning.

According to the results I still managed 3rd fastest overall on my next run using reduced throttle with the clutch slipping badly - I was only beaten by an R34 GTR and an R33 GTR, so it would have been nice to get a shot at the other events too.

Next time I will have a good clutch, new rear tyres and maybe even switch on the boost controller - I am really looking forward to it.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
