silly me!! d'oh!

Thanks Bobby!

James - rear seat is piss easy :)

Sucks now, no passengers are allowed, so my mrs wont be going :D

Yeah i saw that on the Autosports site.

Pretty stupid i think. I haven't been to 100's of track days, but the one's i have been to I am yet to see any issues with passengers or people mucking up with passengers.

It was part of the attraction for me.

chubs, you're going down.......my new bigger wheels will give me road contact, my bodykit will save me some weight and my big ass wing will give me more downforce................and I wouldn't be surprised if I score a slower time than before LOL

I should be faster in theory..........but we all know, a lot of things work well in theory.... like communism.

Most likely I'll be heading down early in the morning e.g. 5:30 or 6 so anyone wanting to meet up, arrange something.

I will be there, though i leave from campbelltown so won't be meeting up.

If you pass a white ford ute pulling a black silvia give me a wave.

My car won't be ready in time. It'll be running tomorrow but really needs a tune and an alignment before seeing action.

James, I was 1 second slower than you in the pouring rain :D

but bring it on biatch!!!!!!

lol not that I can bring it since it's still missing a lot of the go fast bits. I've been focusing too much on go pretty bits these days. As long as I don't go slower than my old times I'll be happy.

Same :w00t:

Thing was that big EVO crash from last track day, he didnt have a passenger in the car.

But dont worry, our SAU Track day will have passengers, I hope :)

Yep we will be having passengers for driver training at out Track day! :D

yeah, i think it came down to the evo not knowing what the fu(k was going on and the driver was used to the car doing all the work....

Probably a bit harsh, but after watching a few pretty big moments out of turn 10 in my rear vision mirror where a couple of evos figured they'd just drive straight past me on the inside before they were straight (and ensuing massive primary and secondary oversteer moments before they gathered it up), and seeing a couple more do it when i was on the pit wall, someone had to have an off there.

It was unfortunate it was such a big one and i don't wish it on anyone despite my opinion of evo drivers..... :thumbsup: give me a challenging car to drive any day!

Nah you are right there Dave,

I totally agree.

To be honest - the guy before the crash was going hard, I'd say 10 tenths. He was over taking people underbrakes in the wet, whereever possible. Even when there was the big drivers breifing to not drive hard out there. He simply didnt listen.

And yes, as an SAU VIC member once said, "even Stevie Wonder can drive an EVO quick"

A challenging RWD FTW!!! :D

nothing wrong with going 10 tenths :D I did it myself when the dryish line started to appear. Then i put a wheel in the wet stuff :D and my front right wheel did a good impersonation of a shovel..... Bastard car is still dripping mud on my back slab when it rains.

Though i am quite happy to take all the credit for my quality driving :D

Out of interest, has anyone here signed up for the tamperedmotorsport day on the 22nd? 50 cars, $140, timing included. Pretty sure it's the new owner running it

If anyone here does a rain dance I'll slap you into 2009 :down:

Dave - oh mate, in the dry I'll try and go as hard as possible! I just think that day wasnt the day to do it!! :P

Ben - yeah mate bring the semi's you'll be right :P

Michele - w0000000t go for the formula!! that will be awesome to watch!!

James - cool mate what seat? You'll be really surprised how much it holds you in! With my standard seat I was fighting myself from sliding in the seat round corners, which makes me lose concentration on the actuall corner!

my bucket seat helps a shitload!

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
