Majanal (90% now... just gotta get turbo checked)

Oz (90%)

Now we have 16 Spots Booked and that is without me driving... Guess I'll be there with Duncan to show people where to go if they would like.

Benm, Come along and bring your grear... Unfortunatly the day is fully booked but there are usually some dropouts and I'm sure that I can get you on track.

Because of the HUGE turnout we will need to be at the track between 7:30 and NO LATER than 8am or you will miss track time. Briefing by moto concepts will be at 8:45am sharp and we have to be signed up by then.

Any Drivers that haven't driven before around EC make sure you let me know if you want to go out with one of the more experienced guys in the A session before you drive yourself and I'll organise it. I can also hopefully get someone in your car when you go out also. Please let me know of this as you sign up.

Don't forget your $130 balance for the day and also bring a pen. Take as much loose gear out of your car before you arrive at the track and if you changing tyres at the track remember that you need to bring blocks to rest your car on (and be there earlier).

Include in you check list, Full tank of fuel, check to make sure tyre pressures are even, Helmut, long top (non flamable), Long Pants (non Flamable), Covered shoes, Licence, somewhere to park ya bum (seat), and most important is a bottle or two of water. I believe that the shop will be open, but it wasn't last time so might be a good idea to bring some munchies, it is also pretty pricey.

For those that don't already know, Passengers are allowed at a cost of $20 per day. They will need to clothed as a driver needs to be and I'll get them organised AFTER the drivers have all been signed up.

No Incar videoing is allowed anymore and also no drifting in groups (Dave explained this to me today and asked if I would let you all know).

Should be a top day. I'll ask Dave if we can get a quick photo at the end of the day again.

Looking forward to it,

Dan.

PS. I'm gonna be bringing Jody along if anyone else's GF/Wife/Female Mate is a bit shy.

i'll be in group B.

DANG IT about the videos... i just organised an in-car mount for mine...

Dan, i might bring bec along, get her into the passenger seat.

anyways, as for the helmets, my friends bought their helmets yesterday from a motorbike shop in parramatta.. don't know what its called but they bought helmets for $99... will ask the address and post it back up...

:)

Head along to a motor-bike shop, you'll get one around that price.

Try different brands though, they all have different shapes and some will fit some ppl better than others.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
