Whats this about the HSV club...have they joined the WRX trackdays as well?

Yep, they have joined in the day to share the track costs I would presume. P.I. is about a $12k proposition now I think.

Lol there goes the neighbourhood :D

I wonder what the WRX members think of this as they will now be fighting for a trackday spot between SAU and the HSV/FPV clubs...

OK.... 3 days in and the entry list is already over 1/2 full.

If you are intending on going to this, I suggest you put an entry in pretty quickly.

& if you have entered, remember to check that your entry has been received - http://www.wrx.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=47871

The WRX club participation rates having been falling over the past 2 years so these multiclubs are the only way to make the championship survive. There will be alot more of this consolidation going on as track costs continue to rise and people start dropping off as their mortgages/rents start to bite given the i/rate environment/bear share market.

Entry List as at the 28th Feb : (48 entries)

...

Jack Blanas GTR 95 / GTSt 92

LOL you are "Other entrant Name" on my entry :P

Ho-ho R32 Widowmaker will ride again :D

Hopefully Matt loads up that weapon of his with some more vinyl...i need to be loaded as much ballast as possible :)

That's possibly the most sensible thing i've ever read on SAU. Are you sure you belong here?

A certain R33 GTR with a T88-34d and 450kw at all four will be entering this event :P Faxed the entry form off tonight, hopefully Alex will make it in!

:thumbsup:

I reckon it should break the 2 min mark...

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
