Just wondering who on this forum is running in this years event.

After 3 years or so working as an official on the sideline there is a fair chance im in this year navigating, just waiting on entry.

few questions i wouldn't mind asking:

Do navigators need gloves?

This year I need a NR licence, but my driver wants me to complete necessary training so that in the unlikely event he is unable to drive, I take his place. What additional things do I need to do? I have heard I might have to complete 2 club days/kahnacross, but the thing that concerns me is WHAT IF THERE ISN'T TWO BETWEEN NOW AND APRIL (or im unable to).

Anyway looking forward to being there, meeting some of you guys and having a ball.

ps if anyone needs a workshop over the week (in launceston), im sure my driver wouldn't mind opening his up.

Cheers

Tim

Navs don't need gloves, you'd never be able to turn the pages reliably.

I hope to get back this year, and am on the hunt for a spot in the silly seat (would love to get a gold plate). My driver has decided to start a family and amongst other commitments he is understandably not competing again.

With regard to your license, you can also do a couple of hours at a performance driving venue, like we did, at Holden Performance Driving at Yatala, Qld, I think? That gets around finding suitable events. (Bear in mind the driving test method must be approved by SCAMS, oops, CAMS.

Should mention will be in Pink S15 200SX!!!!

Ahhh very cool, will be great to see a silvia out there!

Just took a look at the Rookie rallye, this is the first I've heard of it. Seems to be a good thing, especially compared to say Dutton rally.

Yeah that;s the one the rookie rallye, he is hoping to win his devition so that next year he can enter the real targa.

Yeh thats what we would effectively like to do, but rather that crash from going to quick, just enjoy it and have fun, there is always sponsors out there keen to support

they need to fix their page title. it's says David Dahl... >_<

Haha everyones says that!

I've been given a car from Lotus to drive in the Targa Classic Rally, we leave the start line an hour before the competition class.

I think it will be good practise for next year when i can get out there and do the real thing in the rookie class and then step up to the competitive class.

Hopefully meet some of you down there. >_<

      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?
