i carry a shit load more speed through the corners as i dont slide all over the place like the lighter people...

no need for brakes, just lean forward and turn into the corner... bobs ya uncle im faster through the twists and faster out of the corners...

as you know go karts take time to build speed, so the faster you come out of a corner the better...

that all said, i came 1st for the day so who cares...

also i remember beating one "shanef" at kingston park a few years back in the rain... :thumbsup:

wasnt me brother, i didnt make that one! (was stuck at work, i remeber it clearly caus i spat the dummy caus i had to do overtime that nite :D)

yeah i agree, they keep telling me they are waiting for the ecu to arrive from haltech, so f**ks me,

wasnt me brother, i didnt make that one! (was stuck at work, i remeber it clearly caus i spat the dummy caus i had to do overtime that nite :thumbsup:)

Must have been dangerous dave then... :D

I remember getting soaked to the bone... Karen and Marc were there, I think Karen got a $2 rain suit which leaked in like 3 seconds :(

yeah i did shane, i regret going to a SAU recommended mechanic sponsor thingy lol

As I said Bryn I trust no one... I do all my own work (except tuning)...

They all do bad things from time to time, its just some workshops do more bad things often :thumbsup:

lakeside looked great this morning... :)

Saw Geoff bashing up the track and saw Chris waving a flag or two...

Watched a blue wrx take a corner too hot and end up flipping 180 degres right in front of the integra...

The VE Calais 6 litre auto was going nuts, was really supprised how weel it went up against the GTR's...

Watched the yellow R33 being pressured by the white RX7 to the point where the R33 left the track and was very lucky not to smack the wall...

Was allot of speed coming down onto the straight out of that last corner, the track is faster than i can remember... :)

Cant wait to see the picks... Also does anyone know the contact details for the track as I was speaking with one of the maintainance guys and they have a skidpan up the back of the circuit, so maby we can go to skidpan here and save a 2 hour drive to Gympie???

Lakeside was fun. Just needed my semis to pull a few seconds of lap time out. The street rubber sucked across the face of the corners and I just had to use the throttle to get attitude through the corners. The somewhat overdone HSV with all the stickering just had the mid corner speed on me with his race rubber so I had to let him through. No point spoiling his fun today but with semis I would have had him on toast, likely I'd have had to step up to group one. Can't wait to the the 26/30 powered track barge out there to scare a few folks.

That yellow 33, for all it's slicks and poop was an absolute piece of junk. Way too low to handle properly and very poorly presented but what a wanker. He was trying to take up about 4 car spaces along the pit exit and trying to force everyone to go right out around his spot by an extra car length so he could just drive along and put it on blocks so he could install yet more cable ties to hold it together. Not surprised he was too arrogant to get out of the way to let a faster car through and cracked under the pressure.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
