Anyone after some 17" slicks going cheap?

Got one set of 24/69/17's for $240 (firm price) with heaps of tread left, they've come from a team who used them for one testing session. They're basically a 240/45/17 - i put one of them ontop of a 235/45/17 street tyre ive got and cant tell the difference except for the massive difference in grip between the two :)

Ive got 2 sets of them, and once my new brakes go on the car it needs 18"s so someone get a bargain

take it your only selling the two? would be interested in all 4 at 120$ each.

when is the last day to be able to attend?

What do you mean?

Last day to pay???

Is it still in time for applying SAU member and CAMS license???

As soon as we see that you have applied for membership and the money has been transfered we can put you down as a member even though you haven't received your membership pack.

As for the cams.. You may be cutting it close. it usually takes 2 -3 weeks for cams to turn around your application but you can give them a shot..

You shouldn't need a CAMS licence for this event - a AASA licence can be obtained from Wakefield on the day (12 months around $50)

Also (correct me if I'm wrong SAU admins) but as SAU NSW is a CAMS affiliated club (not that you need CAMS for this day) you should be able to fill out the forms and pay SAU and get 12months CAMS on the day, keeping the 28 day stubb at the bottom of the form. The catch may be that there won't be any club admins there on the day who have the authority.

i've got another question, my power steering pump belt isn't in the best shape, is it likely to fail scruitenering or is it too hard to make that call with out seeing it? i'll try n change it before, but incase i dont get the chance

When it sells out you will have missed out but just before then is ok. The catch is that we don't know when it will sell out. Looks like coming down to the wire this time.

This is correct Michele.

$17 and 20 minutes. Even if you buy it and then fit it on the morning at the track it's worth it.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
