Hey steve, could you do mine number too, 81 there's a beer in it for ya!.

Yeah its already done, i just couldnt be bothered laying them all out for the photo - ive done one for everybody from SAU

Cheers for that Steve-0 :dry: Champion!

Just incase you didnt know? I drink scotch :D

Ok, so i had to take a call, and it took more than a minute

And so on for the others (couldnt be stuffed covering the floor with EVERY single one)........

So thats one less thing you lot have to worry about :dry:

Thanks for that!

Some final info will be posted up soon, mostly for the 1st timers but you will all need to read it.

Scutineering starts at 8am and finishes at 8:45am if you dont get your car done in this time period you will need to wait until after the drivers briefing.

Woot! Looking forward to this foshizzle... been doing some servicing the last couple of nights so the car will pretty much be fresh (belts; fluids; all filters).

New tyres go on today :laugh: Not expecting any super-low times as I'm not running any boost at the moment :D But will be a good comparison for next time when I do go back with boost (hopefully) :D

why no boost?

soo!! may be heading down on sunday.. i vaguely remember the way, but does anyone else have street names/directions?! :D

Easy, once you're on the highway, take the Goulburn exit, then follow that for a while, you will cross a bridge, turn left at the first set of lights after the bridge, follow that for a while. Go past a pub and some shops, then there will be an UNDERpass of the track tracks - ignore that - you want the OVERpass which is on the left (theres a sign) go over the tracks there and follow that, then just cruise along until you see a racetrack on your left :)

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
