the only real thing holding me back from this is the fact that I dont have decent tyres on 2 of my stockies...or race in my 19" heavy weights and hope the rears dont scrub....

i see if i can source some better tyres...the current fronts are too shit...if i can get some better tyres then ill go....i could try the toyos on the front but then i wouldnt get any power down and the back will slide....i will have a look...

well i think i have sourced 4 semi slicks....used, but still should be good....granted i can pick them up and there not in tasmania or something....

i will let you know how it goes...

should be interesting....wonder how i will go around a track...

should i go? i have whats known as "one stop then nothing brakes" when on rd, will it be better on the track with more airflow or will i just have a crap time. need advice. stock 33 gtst brakes with compliance pads still. how much of a difference will some nice ducting make

Corrine,

I want to support driving events. Without us they will not happen. I have no problem with $220.00 just I do not have a CAMS license yet. I will try to do it with Ian Luff Motivations but I need a day off work which is hard at the moment. If I will not be in that will be the only reason. Thank you again for the wonderful day on skid pan. Hopefully next time I will do better....

Cheers,

EUG.

If you are being correct in the brake assesment - you might want to do a bit of work first. Think pads before anything else as they will give you the best bang for the buck and are realtively cheap. Ducting only gives a margin improvement. Stopping on the track is very important - more so than going fast to begin with. If you have severe fade you'll only get a few laps in each session at best or spend time in the grass or wall at worst.

If you are for real you will crash your car for sure on the track. When was the last time you bled the brakes? They sound completely f**ked. You shouldn't even be driving it on the street.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
