The day is FULL, though there are several people on a waiting list.

If for some reason you need to pull out, please contact Tony at [email protected] ASAP so your spot can be filled by someone else.

Please see the entry list on the WRX forums - HERE

IMPORTANT NOTE TO ALL COMPETITORS

Copied from the WRX Forums -

Due to the overwhelming number of entries for our Anzac Day event, we will have a reserve list of entries in order of acceptance.

Basicaly, these will be the entrants who will slip into the event should someone pull out, or not show up in the morning. This list will be up later today on the acceptances thread.

As a result of our numbers it is imperative that everyone gets to Driver's briefing on time as YOUR spot may be forfeited if you are not present and have not signed in before the roll call.

It would also be appreciated if everyone can ensure that their car is ready to scrutineer and make sure ALL documentation including membership cards and licence are in order.

Any hold ups may affect track time, and we want to get on track as soon as possible to provide maximum track time.

Please affix your competition number securely with race tape not packing tape preferreably as this sticks to the number

A reminder also that the 75db limit is usually strictly enforced at Sandown due to local residants We have no control over this aspect of the day.

Finally, have your membership card ready at the entrance gate as you may be asked for some identification before entering the complex.

If they are glass you should. Though sometimes the scrutineers miss it. If its rainy and dark then you will be using them and a good idea to tape them up. Some Cheap clear contact will do the job, just be sure to get it off as soon as you are done as the heat fromt eh light can kinda bake it on and a 30 second job of removing it turns into a 10 minute job requiring acetone

great day

Well a big thanks to the one and only BRISBY! for making mine and my dads day great, and to say it has put the biggest smile on my dads face no one could remove. (Brisby helped my dad in driver training) Thanks again man

Scott and John

A birdie tells me a certain Lada driving official would sure like a drive of an R34 capable of punching out 1:20s :(

I had a ball today. Great fun going round with John...and thank god after the quick cooler pipe fix, the R33 was free of my curse :)

...but yeh,,, good to see everyone still smiling despite the few problems seen on the day...and ditto, the officials once again donating their time.

That said, i am so keen for the next Sandown...massively keen to see if i can improve on my last attempt

Good work everyone. Great day, great times, no incidents :(

BTW: I think I need a faster car - SuperLada didn't even top 90kmh up the back straight.

Good to see other clubs involved, but I must say I have removed the word 'clubman' from my Christmas card list. Mostly nice people - but two things during the day did not particularly impress me, nor win my favours. That is all I'll say.

Also - that Rarri is so porn. I LOVE it.

Thankyou to whoever broke their cars this morning and got jarrod and myself out there! (hope all is well) was an awesome day, sandown is such an awesome track, even if ya rotors are corrigated... Thanks to the officials, flaggies and timers etc, was well run. (I think they need to introduce an oil/fluid flag so people know to stop ASAP). anyway, ill be posting up some pics tommorow.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
