just want to know, would u have to drive ur own car or is a test car suppled?

also what do u get out of it? eg like certificate's?, more demerit points on ur licence?, cheaper car insurance? etc..

cheers

bill

you have to drive your own car i believe

what you get out of it is basically you learn how to control and drive your car in a way that you have total control of it (i believe thats more or less the goal for the day)

as for demerit points and cheaper car insurance, dont think that is the case

Saturday is going to be 35 :D

anything to specifically look at/check/take care of with the car before going through a whole driving day in that heat?

Advanced Driving Course is not very hard on your car, just a normal check over is fine.

Typical Melbourne - wouldnt worry about the heat anymore

Have fun tomorrow guys - im sure itll be a blast :huh:

wet track, should be fun :D

are we cruising to this thing, or we just making our own ways there?

EDIT: i just rang Shannons, shannonites should be getting full cover for the day! As it's not time trial related, not CAMS related, doesn't require special license, qualified instructors will be there and it's purely about increasing ones skills in relation to controlling a car.

Pg.30 of some booklet shannon's people will find the info

cheers :D

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
