Hi!, for those who care..

I will not be taking individual car bookings for the skid days I run in Gympie for any more skid days.

That Job Has now gone to Grant (who is not on SAU yet).

Grant will be the contact person if u want to go to the local skid days I run.

He will be taking all the bookings for next years dates as well.

3intheback and I are busey men and we have handed the job over.

We are both confident that the transisition will be very smooth, and he will do the job well.

I will post up his email very soon.

Warren and I will be running the days, Grant will be taking the bookings.

Cheers

So every body understands what we are on about..

The ethos of our skid day is this...

Grab your street car..

grab some fuel and your mate,

go to the skid pan and scatch an ich..

Drive your car as it is..

learn how it acts and reacts on a slippery wet surface.

Have some fun...

Talk to some of the other drivers,

have some more fun.

Get some tuition.

Learn what your car is asking of you..

have some more fun scratching that ich,

skid around and play a bit more,

if the need arises, grab a free soft drink.

Now you are starting to get an idea of what is happening,

Get some more tuition..

Learn some new skills,

then, hone your new skills,

put new skills into practice.

Grab a snag off the BBQ and eat a burger.

just for a difference, do a a bit itch scratching

try not to smile so hard that it hurts!

After about 3 skid days like this.. you will catch onto what we are on about!

The Skid day that I'm running this sat will probably net about 6~8 bookings..

They will go extremely fast. We are getting faily well know now, we have guys coming from the gold coast and as far as Ska's home town of Rocky. I am tring to give everybody ample opertunity to book in..

take my advise.. do it this week!

i was lucky enough to attend on saturday and i learnt a great deal about the handling of my car and a great deal about throttle control.

id like to thank aaron and the rest of the boys for running a very professional day. hope to be there next time.

cheers

hey Cody..

I wanted to spend some time with u in ur car.. but due to a cronic lack of sleep and a very hectic week, I wasn't feeling real flash. Hopefully I will get that chance soon yeh!

I have not checked to see if ur in yet.. but I hope u made it!

Chat to u later man

Zaffa, We run these about every 2 months during the cooler months. We also run SAU exclusive skid days.. There are plenty of threads with heaps of info and input from other guys.. check it out! All my threads are marked with a blue question mark. '?'

Cody.. you are in. U should have got conformation last night or today! I was changing some stuff and poor Grant didn't know what I was up too... my bad. Unfortunatly jake didn't make it.. but there is always next year. Like always.. book early!

Cheers

    • Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL
    • At least yours have parkour down pat. One of mine will still trip over his own shadow and fall over... He's a special type of cat... Ha ha ha
    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
