Message at 12.30pm today from WRX Club entry guy:

As of this message I'm leaving *NOW*

If you need to know any information of want to enter give me a call on my mobile 0419 337 460

I did receive 2 entries today, can't remember who they are but call me if you have any concerns.

See you there.

Simon Walsh.

So if you still need to enter - you WILL HAVE to call his mobile.

See you all up there (or some of you this arvo).

Cheers

Hope you all went well. Good times, no incidents and everyone driving home afterwards.

I miss Winton...

And for the record, as of this morning Snows and Paris were coming 3rd.

Relatively eventless day for all which is always good. Few small gremlins but will let those post if they want.

I had a lot of fun and while consistent in times, was consistently crap but was good to be out with the other Evo's for looking at lines etc.

Jack and Newton are crazy.

Cam, good to meet you and hope you enjoyed the day. Look forward to seeing you at the next meet/Sandown/DECA.

Cheers Budge, any exciting footage from yesterday???

I forgot to charge the battery for the camera so no footage from me... :P

For my first event with SAU i had an awesome time. Was great to actually meet many of the people who until now have been just avatars to me on this forum!

Special thanks to Brisby for helping me get my tires squealing around the track!

Hopefully see many of you at the next round and/or if i can make it to deca.

Also does anyone know who the dude was taking heaps of photos with the mega lensed camera? He may not of taken any photos of the DT group anyway but i would be interested to find out if he did.

Thanks to the flaggies and officials. Was a good day, well done to everyone, some very quick times! Thanks also to Ray for getting my car ready to go.

Open wheeling diff for the lose. :blink: I need more laps at Winton to get it right.. my lines were all over the place. If I had the new suspension setup in it would have helped too. Oh well at least i still snuck in under 1:40 hehe. Bring on Sandown :yes:

Yet you parked it early :blink: I would have paid your entry for the day if you had of let me to drive the last two sessions.

It was good to see the Budgadore getting some good gear. I want to see the VB beating some late model jap cars :D

The day was a blast, and a big thanks to everyone involved with arranging the day! :yes:

There are not many photos floating around so I thought I might load some up.

There was a great selection of cars on the track- all racing fair. Was great to see!

Enjoy.

    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
