Yes?

You wouldn't be whoring posts to artificialy raise your post count? :uh-huh: would you? :uh-huh: and on my thread too! :D

Maybe you fell asleep on the key board :P

Anyway, my main reason to post is to let all you guys know that there is ONE PLACE LEFT:jump:

So if you want it post up...

Richard

Just a note to say, I have posted a list of people who have let me know they want a spot (including whether or not I have the $ from you).

Let me know of any errors.

daz

Sort of ;)

MRR32's friend (sorry forgot name) has expressed some interest (at the meet on Sunday). I'll keep the place for him 'till tomorrow, arvo - after that, you get first dibs.

BTW Slo: Your place is secure so I assume you're asking for someone else?

Richard

its alright richard. spoke to him last night (andy) and he is coming down in his white 180 beast. not actually driving on the track though, doesn't have the money to replace anything that breaks at the moment. he is gonna do my camera work for me.

so meeting time on the tuesday morning?

where?

Time? and leaving time from meeting point.

also I find on a long cruise CB's make it interesting so if you got them please feel free to bring them

Ok,

That's cool. Always nice to have some spectators.

As for going down there. When the GTI-R guys decide how they are going down, I'll post up here about meeting places and so on.

Personally, I will be going down on the Monday night. I'll leave work a little early, say 3:00, hope to get down there, sort of 6ish, check in (Probably at "The loaded dog"), watch the simpsons, have a few beverages, then wake up nice and early, and get to the track:burnout:

If anyone else likes doing things easy, and don't wanna drive for a couple of hours in the morning, only to get to the track sick of driving, let me know and some of us can go down together on the Monday.

Hey guys, the event is coming up in 1 week. can we get some organising happening for a meeting place and time

Good call. I'm happy to help facilitate a meet on the Tuesday morning but I won't be there. I'm going down early monday night so I can arrive at the track nice and fresh :D .

If anyone wants to come down with me, and stay at the same hotel post up and we'll organise something.

For the guys going down on the Tuesday, where do the bulk of you live?

Also, unfortunately one of the SAU guys has had to pull out. If someone can take his place he can then get his deposit back. How about you Duncan? I seem to remember you had some enthusiasm for the idea. C'mon take a sickie and help one of your SAU brethren out.

Also, on top of that place there is still one more left, so anyone of you who has friends ask them to come. PM me if you're keen.

Richard

well, I'm almost certainly able to come along, but cant 100% confirm yet and dont want to hold a spot for someone who can 100% make it.

That's ok. If you can let me know before the weekend that would be great :(

Richard

ok.

I think I might have to come all the way out to Pentrith Anyway.

Have to pick bigbogan dave up from Doonside...

anyway.

Wait, by the end of teh day, we'll have the meeting oint arranged.

Looks like it will be 6:30 am near liverpoool / cambeltown.

Richard

Ohh crap, can't upload pdf files, bugger.

For the Sydney People going to Wakefield on Tuesday Morning

We will be leaving 6:10 am SHARP, to ensure we get to wakefield nice and early.

They plan on stopping at Phessents Nest Mobil at for a 6.30 departure.

To get a bite for breaky and stuff.

So Just go straight there and dont bother meeting at the Shell...

We all want to be there for 9am right?

Great Work with the Servos Richard

    • Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.
    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
