Anyone know why heaps of Grp A and C cars are missing from muscle car masters this year? Was out there today and heaps weren't running or at the even, including the Winfield 32, and the 31. But the Bluebird and GIO cars were there. VL's were missing, hardly any Sierra's. Something must have gone down as its pretty much the premier event for these cars.

The Winfield car is not there simply because Terry has had too much on recently. I cannot speak for the rest of the missing entrants but as you know we are all self funded and after the Phillips Island Classics followed closely by the Albert part F1 support races some of the guys may have had to pull out due to funds.....most of us pick and chose events months out and budget for it........i'm sure they would all love to do every event.

Like everyone I else am missing the scream of an R31 the most! :(

Just an FYI also....There is a bit of a change going on throughout the A & C category atm. For example the GIO car and a couple of others were going to be pulled from MCM as well by the owners due to the risk's being taken by racing against certain other drivers who refuse to pull there heads in and stop running into each other......I actually think that some of these people think that the public are coming out to see them and not the cars! :domokun: Anyway the problem may have been resolved with a couple of letters and phone calls to Cams and MCM!

Rubb'ns racing I agree.......with replaceable cars though!

Went out to Eastern Creek on Sunday and took some snaps.

Im a keen amateur photography so please let me know what you think of the pics guys.

I'd much rather pay money to watch a round of Grp A/C cars than a V8 supercar round. Great to watch. Love the sound of the E30 M3.

Might just mention. For the first time in 20 odd years we have moved away from the Nissan's. We have sold the GIO gtr to Terry Lawlor.

But in a deal we have also settled and I will now be campaigning the 1992 Caltex Sierra. Should be an interesting experiance as I have have driven most of the GMS cars but never a Sierra.

Might have to tighten my nuts a little more coming out of the corners!!!

anyway.....just an update!

P.S. Do you approve of the move Roy! :P

    • 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.  
    • 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?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
