entry form for wakefield?

do we have a final summary of the itinery? events?

There is no entry forms or anything for Wakefield. We just turn up and pay on the day.

Itinery is as per the 1st post. The only thing left to be discussed now is a departure time on Tuesday. That will be done closer to the date.

Bah - I haven't driven Eastern Creek but it's just going to be about 1 corner and that one corner is going to be insignificant next to PI turn 1.

Wakefield however is ace fun. It is by far more enjoyable to drive than any track in Vic other than the Island.

EC turn 1 is pretty fun. Its kinda similar. In your cars you will probably be arriving doing about 240km/h. Quick blip of the brakes and hammer through at over 200km/h. Its a much longer corner then PI...still great fun thoigh. Best fun at EC is the back of Corporate Hill where you have the car floating over the rise as you try to keep the think glued to the inside...good fun. And brakign up to the final comples of lefts for the straight. A lot like Dandenong at Sandown where if you straight line it you can get on the brakes real late then hop you havent over cooked it and ebd up on the dirt mid corner...

Wakefield is still better fun in the cars i have driven,,,though none of them have had the stomp you guys throw around so perhaps when you are closer to the 1:40 lap times its a bit more involving?!?!?

I love how easily he does that tricky shift at turn 8. I don't know how many times I grabbed 5th instead of 3rd there. And then spun off at the next corner. lol

The most suprsing thing from that footage though is him taking turn 2 in 2nd. Not sure if his gearing in the ppg has a long 1st or something but turn 2 is pretty wide and reasonably quick from my memory.(I say this knowing that car has a 4.4 diff in it) I was only grabbing 2nd at turns 7 and 10.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
