AS AN ENTRANT FOR THE UNLIMITED RUN IN 2007 I CAN SAY THAT I THINK THE PRICE OF $1850 IS RESONABLE FOR AN EVENT THAT IS HELD OVER 4 DAYS. ALTHOUGH THIS EVENT IS NOT AS BIG AS THE GUMBALL 3000 OR THE CANNONBALL RUN, IT STILL LOOKS LIKE A HELL OF A LOT OF FUN AND FROM TALKING TO THE ORGANIZERS OF THIS EVENT AND SOME OF THE PREVIOUS ENTRANTS, IT WILL NOT BE LONG BEFORE THIS EVENT IS ON THE FORE FRONT OF EVENTS LIKE THIS. THESE GUYS HAVE SOME MAJOR PLANS FOR THIS EVENT INCLUDING A 3 STATE RUN IN THE NEXT YEAR OR SO. I THINK THAT THIS IS FAR BETTER VALUE THAN SPENDING £28,000 (ROUGHLY $70,000AUD) ON THE GUMBALL OR $10,000 FOR THE CANNONBALL. BOTH OF THESE EVENTS HAVE SAID BE SPENDING A GOOD PART OF THEIR TIME IN SEARING HEAT IN THE NORTHERN TERRITORY. I CAN THINK OF BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN WASH RED DUST OUT OF EVERY ORIFACE OF MY CAR. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN A WARM UP EVENT FOR THE CANNONBALL THEIR SITE IS scphada enterprises "the unlimited run" DROP THESE GUYS A LINE OR MAYBE EVEN USE THIS EVENT TO WORK SOME BUGS OUT FOR THE CANNONBALL LIKE WE WILL BE!

You do realise of course there is more than 1 Sydney in the world, off the top of my head there is one in Canada and one in Scotland as well :).

Not to the Brits there isnt! Melbourne doesnt even exist! :)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
