Hey thanks all! :)

Really happy with the final wash-up given the conditions. Was quite pissing down for half the rally - especially on the whole last day which meant we decided on playing safe to protect 2nd place rather than having a crack at 1st at the end (Given we were on hard tyres and the guys in front and behind us were on wets). Although Uncle Fester (Beaumont) did try his best to hand us the event on Day 2 - watch out for the coverage on Chanel 9 in a few weeks for that one. But overall it was an awesome event. Doing things like 4th gear slaloms was quite a buzz :(

Met heaps of great people over the weekend and the level of competition over in W.A. was much much higher than I probably initially thought. I know speaking to some of the guys that have done all 3 events this year said W.A. had by far the highest level of competition at the pointy end so far. But I'm expecting Vic to be even tougher and I can't wait to see how the GT-R goes. I actually think it might be a slight advantage over the EVO given the boys we were chasing had a clear stright line advantage that won't be there for them with the GT-R (e.g in the 1/8th mile drag (200m) they were nearly a whole second faster than us.)

So Bring on Vic ;)

Some quick pics I've found from AHG on Saturday.

Gav in his sweet R32 copped the same conditions as I did out there. Not easy I can tell you.

In the end these boys were just too good (again)

The Team Wang Subaru! Brendon also won the drivers comp outright.

The Team Wang 996TT! These boys also took out the Rookie Crew Outright award. Team Wang sure did prepresent over in W.A.

Chris told me it was good practice for you getting 2nd, since you'll have to settle for 2nd again in Vic Dutton... ;)

haha well done, it's gotta be hard to keep the consistency up all weekend... even more so if it was wet.

It's going to be a cracker for sure. Although Chris holds on too tight and will put himself out of contention in no time. The one thing I learnt from last year is it is damn hard to win one of these things but it is really easy to lose one in a few moments of madness. So in Vic I'm sure Chris will have some great moments but eventually he'll throw it away.... :glare:

lol, I think you've confused fast with fun snowboy. it may not be fast in the wet, but it certainly would be fun. that is if near death experience with every throttle jab is your idea of a good time! people driving evos wouldn't understand... :( ok maybe your right, it would be more brown pants than it would be fun.

Hey crew, thanks for all the words of encouragement and support. Looking forward to catching up in Vic. Was a tops weekend although Snowy did suck the wang a little and needed a few hugs after hitting cones, but to be honest I sucked more. Interesting that he beat me in the 8th mile sprints. Always more fun when its not your car. Looking forward to the 800's in Vic. The GTR is evil and must be punished. Hopefully its not going to be a 3....2...1...ra ra ra ra ra......Go......BANG!!! weekend. (Ask Snowy to explain... :( ) The R's reliability has been a bit questionable. Sending over the super reliable backup evo has been talked about. :) Should be a mad weekend at the end of the Month. Look out Scotsman and Newton. You know teh R34 GTR can nevar lose!!! Besides, money can't buy talent, but it can buy horsepower, and sometimes thats enough!!! :D Go Team Darksnow!!!

Cheers,

Blaise

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
