Was fun, I heard that there isn't going to be a Motoconcepts day for the month of Sept - time to go to Wakefield?

Some good pics there - including Roy's 85 degree drift in his Hino truck -

But they dont smoke:( . I still have much to learn.

As for lap times, i was apparently in the 1:56s, hand timed by sea sick passenger.

Oh and thanks to DoughBoy for handing over his keys when my Hino called it quits. I hate to say but im a fanboy :D

B-man, that one I did hold... was plenty of grip with those tyres on... but cost me too much to buy them so I only drifted on them once.

I strapped on some old "bedrock" tyres for the last few sessions and tryed my best to finish them off... sadly I failed after 4 sessions of giving them hell... one lap I drifted turns 2,3,4,5,7,9 and 12, not continuelessly (spelling) and they still didn't die... so they shall be making a return to eastern creek to be put into there grave. With these tyres one I had some pretty smokey looses!!!! All I believe should have been captured on film and I'm sure Prank will have them up shortly??? (Please please Prankster I really want to see how that rear veiw mirror shot worked, or didn't work)

Was a great day guys... I was in bed and very well asleep by 8:30!

Thanks all that came out to play... was good to see you all there and hope that you all had a good time!

Dan.

8:30? That's a bit soft considering you slept in :rofl:

I had fun in the little pulsar, didn't really explore uncharted waters but I had a bit of a fang around the track, it managed 170 down the straight. With a bit more track knowledge I could hold more speed through the corners and get my times down, but that's really a task for the next car which will also be RWD and more powerful... the pulsar is going to stay in the family when I get my next one so I have to be nice to it!

Thanks to Dan for organising, I enjoyed the day. :)

    • 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.
