I had a great day, I was expecting to be more tired seeing as I'd just gotten in from Sydney but once I got in the car I was fine. I probably should have put my stockies on but needed to use the Yokohamas for the photo shoot with Joel at Lunch time. Looking foward to seeing the photos from Joel.

Was great to see so many girls entered and also great to see another well organised fun SAU club event. Good to catch up with the Usual suspects and the WRX guys that drove up to spectate. It's nice to see people not entered taking time to come up and support the club and their friends.

Can't wait for the next one, should have my new dif by then aswell.

next time do you think i should take the munro onto the d4d thingo ???

considering my handbrake barely slows the car down etc ...

ummm

hang on, i dont think ill do that, nope ...

ill be signing up as an sau - ee after i get a bit more of my car sorted out ... so ill be pissing off ppl most likely ... and hear whispers on "what the hell is that peice of crap doing here'

hehe

bring on deca btw ... i have a helmet, booyah

For sure mate! It'll be great to see the old holden sideways. Just make sure it's got a locked diff and you'll enjoy yourself. Just do it for the fun of it, because your car will be the limiting factor. Give it a go!

some great photo's there Wokka, nice work.

I really fried my rear tyres during this day, delaminating them on the final wet event, I think that was mainly due to that surface being a fair bit rougher than the big skidpan. I was in the 3rd group to go on the wet event an I thought it was still wet enough, but I guess my tyres proved otherwise. I was giving them a fairly hard time, I expected I would though thats why I used a different pair of rims on the day so I didnt feel I had to hold back.

I cant wait for the next event, this day was well organised, well structured, had great events for beginners and all the knowledge from the insructors anyone could need.

HUGE THANKS to all involved, organisers, instructors & participants, everyone made it a great day!!

I've got vids but they are on an analog video camera. Anyone know how I can convert these into digital format so I can load them up?

hmmm, if u can hook the camera up to a tv, which has a dvd recorder on hooked up to it, i beleive u can do it that way, but im only assuming :O

off topic but did anyone fill up in melbourne just before D4d and then note fuel economy once they had gone through a full tank?

I filled up in melbourne the night before and was empty at 460k's including trashing the car for the day (used about 1/3 @ D4D), interested what others got ?

Hmmmm I'll look into it.

Here are some pics that I took. I have heaps more but don't want to put up pics of peoples plates. What program should I use to black them out.

Check out the truck driver. He was holding on for his life!!!

That corvette that rocked up was very nice...

The one of Pete is just before the pop...

got adobe photoshop? can use the blur tool, or smudge em out..or just paint over them...

same goes for mspaint, but might affect the quality of them when you save...

paul, i filled up saturday morning, was at 3/4 tank or there abouts when we got to deca

left deca with half a tank, drove home to hoppers, and probably still had 1/4 tank left

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
