Dave did a 1.08.2 and the day it was done he was on full slicks (worn out i think from memory) when the Vic guys were up here on their annual trip.

His CDI f**ked up the night before and meant a late night trip to SAS to get a new one - that was fun

EDIT: Oh and he had problems with the brakes

In... NOT

Oh hang on i have no car....

Ok well i am happy to throw my hand up for helping out again and happy to give out some shotgun advice for newbies...

Before the oldies take a dig, YES i drove a taxi / Cefiro, but it was a fast taxi! :wub:

cool, putting my hand up for instruction

Actually the way i drive i think i would benefit from 3 instructors at once, one in each passenger seat :-)

IN!!! making the trek from the desert for this one! Payment will be coming shortly Adam. (have to wait for the pigeon carrier to make its long flight)

last time on a dry track i did 1:16's, but i then did 18's next track day in the wet, so estimate around 1:14's if its dry...

I'll help Bobby!!

But with my help you'll go sideways!! :)

I'll come to be an instructor, that is if people are willing to listen to a young fella :)

But seriously, car is off the road since texi, so put me down as an instructor if you like :)

P.s. Might bring the Mighty Starlet

Edited by TURISMO

I'm in!! Payment will be made tomorrow 17/05/08 and i'll email/confirm tomorrow after paying!

In the words of Chubbs "Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy!" this is gunna be awesome!!!!!!!!

    • 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.
