Of course its still happening.

There is no reason it wont be going ahead.

I dont think ill be there the way things are going.

All due to sh|tbox cars like snowys, irish & handbags.

What happens if it rains? :P

Will Heathcote cancel it? or will they dry the track with the convertible Corona and leaf blowers?

Gate action from my car will heb used to dry the track :cheers:

lol the datto will throw a few flames down as well.

Depends whether its a quick shower or decent rain, if its only real light they should be able to dry the track, however if it gets too wet they will obviously cancel it.

There is no promise with weather, its impossible.

But if its raining in Melb, that doesnt mean it is in Heathcote.

In the past 6 times i've been @ heathcote.

Raining here in Melb and by the time i get upto the track to watch etc etc. Its totally dry up there and no rain :D

The track can be dried, same as calder when it rains there aswell.

I hope your car isnt as fast as Scotsmans :D

Roy,

Going on his sig....12.10at 119mph But dont hold me to that..

Yep last time I went down the 1/4, I got 12.1 @ 119. But that was on the old std engine with std turbs. Car was 250kw then, it's now 310kw.

But it's not a drag car in any form. When Bris says 'fast' he is just stiring. The car is fast around corners. But with negative camber and such it's not going to be much faster than a 12 flat or 11.9ish down the strip.

Anyway, it will be fun regarless.

That is you can get any traction at all there, last time i was there i couldn't get any traction, it was stupid, spinning all 4 wheels no matter how i took off all the way through 1st and 2nd....

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
