This Sunday 18th of March, 5th Gear motorsports and Federal Tyres are having a combined event at the Sutton Driver training centre - Sutton Road NSW.

There will be a FREE bbq for all, cars on display, give aways, the Formula 1 racing on the big screen and an afternoon "Skid and Drift" session on the skid pan open to everyone for only $25 per session!

Come along and have a snag and watch some F1 racing or drifting and a chat to us about Federal tyres and 5th Gear's motorsports offers.

All are welcome - Spectators included! :laugh::)

this sounds fun. what time?

Its an all day event, we'll be there from about 9am until 5pm and the BBQ will probably be from about 11am until 1-2pm.

The afternoon Skid and drift sessions will start from 1pm.

There will also be a Motorkhana event held by the MG club adjacent to the skid pan for most of the day.

So you shouldnt be short of things to do! :w00t:

sounds like good fun. I have basball on and possibly something after for a while. What time do you think it will go too as i should be able to get out there by say 4pm

We'll be going until about 5pm depending on how many people are around, we may go for a bit longer.

Wooo Hooo...

There will be a guy filming and might be able to make up some DVD's for those interested in seeing how good/bad they were doing.

bring sunscreen if you plan on spectating because the best view spots will leave you crispy :glare:

Thats a good way to put it.

It is a great way to have fun but also to learn something about your car and how it reacts in slippery situations.

The weather is apparently going to be warm and sunny so do bring sunscreen and a hat so you can enjoy the day without getting to roasted.

I hope to see as many of you there as possible. :happy:

Who saw the Suzuki Swift hooning around and having to constantly wait for the black Monaro to get its 5h1t together? I was in the swift :D Aching arm from all the handbraking now hahaha but man that thing was fun, just enough power and lightweight to bring it around after a quick flick.

As my gf says (it's her car): "Go Swifty!"

errr...

the camera dude did not arrive.

It was a good fun day and I am really keen for the next one in 2 weeks! hopefully we will get some good footage then.

It was good to see a variety of people and cars there. A lot of 1st timers having a good time.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
