what else ya gunna do?

it'd be un-Australian not to go :P

Shaun.. better rsvp soon! I just checked the thread, and there are under 10spots left. I've read that they have put aside 10 spots for the bikes and the cars have the remaining 40spots.

I could be interested however, the track standard might be a bit high. That said, if people think I could "hack" the track, I will happily go for it.

lol

Don't worry!!! I'll be there to bring the standard down a bit. lol.

I would have really liked to make it back there to see how the car goes now it handles better but I have settlement that w/e. It was nice to drive a track that was more technical than others and also how layed back the day was. Oh well next time I'll be there!

Recommended to anybody thinking about it.

I see there is now some Elise's, some GT3's and a GT2 on the list as well (apparently).

I was thinking of changing my mind and finding another time to go but it's becoming a mightily interesting list of entrants.

Unfortunately we haven't been able to get Sutton Rd for this weekend so there will be another Wakefield trip to NSW early in the New Year run in conjunction with a Sutton Rd event but we are waiting for the NSW people to recover from their hangover and get the dates sorted.

With the Calder park WRX championship round the weekend before, this will be interesting to see if a) my car will be ready in time for Jan 20th and b) if i break something at calder, preventing me from coming to Wakefield

Afternoon Kids!

I've just received a PM from Autosports saying they are now chasing payments and they'd like to tie up payments by the end of the week.

Should be an awesome day!!! So if you want to reserve your spot, you MUST pay now!

I hope to see you there!

Hey guys, I was thinking of bringing the Evo down but was wondering how far is the drive from Melbourne?

From memory it is about 6 hours of driving but took around 8 with breaks/fuel stops etc.

Not sure, depends if i get some "issues" sorted at the moment.

But if its not ready, i will be dead... so its me or the car by Jan 07.

Just wondering if anyone has seen Ash since Sunday night?

Was talking to Bec today about this, is there a final consensus on this as I have the Thursday booked off but will make other plans if people arent going? :)

Guys, im in the process of doing a weekend of thrashing up here that you guys can come to, it includes a DECA style day, and a day at Wakefield (or i can sort Oran Park but thats harder)

Im being held up by the ACT government not choosing their exact dates for the ACT rally - due to a clause in a lease agreement one of the places we're going to use arent allowed to accept bookings until the rally dates are booked first

So my hands are tied.....for now :)

By all means go up for this trip (afterall, 2 trips is better than one) - but for the guys that miss out, ill make it well known when ive organised my one so you guys all have enough notice etc to get time off work etc

For those that weren't aware the majority of us are no longer going up for this.

However if you have paid it is still on and you can still attend.

Stay tuned for another SAU road trip to wakefield soon! So much fun.

    • 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?
