I was once told if I drove onto the red part again I would be disqualified for the rest of the meet by an ANDRA official while trying to drive around the water box.

I then watched the same official *not* warn dozens of others do the same thing. Wierd.

I used to just drive around the water, but then they freshly painted the red/blue section and now they throw a major fit if you try and drive around it. Hell even if I just drive thru the water and stop (rather than sitting in the water) they give all sorts of death stares!

I've seen many cars drive round the water in the past, although admittedly I was probably paying more attention to the cars racing or to the other car doing their burnout then to whether or not they were getting told off by one of the officials.

From what the guys are saying, it sounds like a bit of a 'no no' so i'd probably recommend driving through the water and just try to spin the water off the tyres as you get the all clear to do your burnout and move to the start line.

Or, perhaps ask one of the officials - although it wouldn't surprise me if you got 3 different answers from 3 different people :)

Good luck :)

Just not going to happen guys, I have almost finished the car now... but not enough time to pack it up and get down there... plus probably got another hour to go with this work... oh well.

I'm going to plan to head out on the 30th of August for a hit out. The new turbo will be going on shortly after that. this is of course provided I don't break anything next weekend in Tassie.

Good luck guys, I'll get there again one day!

Cheers,

Dan.

apparently it was the flywheel. the commentators said that it exploded and left a 2in hole in the track.

although i dont know how much i could trust them seeing as they were calling all the skylines gtrs

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time.

      My BMW 335i

      This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins.

      Was the car running before he touched the car?
