Hey guys,

Ive been asked by the WRX Club to see if there is anyone who might be able to assisst as back-up recovery for the next track day at Phillip Island on Sat March 31.

Stephen Dean has already kindly offered his services for the day, but in case there are multiple incidences they are hoping to have a second car there on the day.

Its such a big track and in the spirit of giving drivers as much time driving as possible, they are looking for help with this one.

Anyone who might be able to help out, can you post here, or email Lyn at [email protected]

Also, if anyone else wants to assisst with flagging, etc on the day - please email Lyn as above.

Thanks guys and girls,

:(

You'll be provided with a handy Russian recovery vehicle with lights and stickers too.

B - I'll be there for this, with both cars - so will help instruct volunteers as well as cheat.

Essentially you park just off the track behind the barriers at a convenient location (if we can get three vehicles then it would most likely be pit exit, Honda and Hayshed) and if you are lucky, the most you will have to do is pickup and deliver the flaggies/equipment during the day. What normally happens is that if a car goes off or stops for any reason, then they are towed by one of the recovery vehicles either back on to the track if they can recover to the pits under their own power, or are towed back to the pits if they can't.

I'll be there with the Navara, but I'd be lucky to break three minutes around the track in it, so having a few extra helpers would be very good.

Want to get close to the track?

Want to get great views?

Want to be right there amoungst the action?

If you answered YES to any of the above, then you want to help out with flagging on the 31st. :happy:

If you are interested in helping out, please email Lyn at [email protected]

:cheers:

How are you getting both cars down to the island James?

Do you need a second driver?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
