Lol, what's PC?

Didn't think you'd be up for it Greggy?

"Politically Correct"

May have had a couple of bevvys when I was thinking that lol, but have contacted the Dr to see if he is interested.

I know exactly what Duncan is on about Lol!

Oh and High Country is looking to be the Bomb, shame I didn't know The Woo was going to do it until now.

and heard a little bit more from a reliable source about Rally Tasmania going to gravel (ARC, VRC & TRS). So for any Tarmac fan who enjoyed that event you can kiss it goodbye.

Winter race now to be launched... Targa Burnie. :)

Back in Hobart to feed into the computer what I firmed up with the THC course last week and I've gotta say that since late last year I'd almost forgotten just how good the roads are up there!

The course has a bit of everything for everyone with a good balance of tight and twisty and quick and flowing all with predictable surfaces... and some stunning views for those willing to lift their eyes from the road! There is one road we will be playing on that I told council should be converted into one way traffic with a toll booth as its the nearest thing Australia has to the Nürburgring and a very cool experience that will dominate conversation on Sunday.

Looking forward to getting back up there again later this week.

What road is that Stu???

I spoke about the event with Stu last week, and after seeing his excitement for it and his description that many of the stages are like Tassie's west coast, then I figured I simply couldn't miss it. )

It's a shame that Gavin has Timmy, would dearly like him beside me, but Gavin asked him straight after Targa, before I decided to run, and thems the breaks :ermm:

Don't be sad Timmy :P

So Stu when do we find out the full details for High Country? I need to get motivated into getting a car and the less time I have for motivation the less chance there is I will have the time to get one ready.

Although my motivation/confidence took another hit on the weekend when my good buddy in W.A. Blaise wiped his car out in his first crack at Tarmac Rallying at the new Targa South West on Saturday. Sad to see and now we both find ourselves with a cabin already booked for THC but neither of us have a car!

swap the box, and run the 34 with the dent.

you know I got offered an awesome deal on a new donar R34 on Friday and after looking at the scary list of things I should bring across from the old car I was half tempted to just chuck a cage in and run it otherwise stock for shits and giggles. Its currently got an IMPUL ECU (I think to just remove the limiter??) and an exhaust and other than that its dead stock. Would be amuzing to see how fast it was.

Only problem is it looks so pretty - and its not blue.

Some grandpa in a white Porsche has had a look at the rough course... just like some bloke that reckons he can weld and drive from Burnie :happy:

Main bits to check out are up and and a little down the Mount Buller Tourist Road from Sawmill Settlement.

Mansfield Whitfield Road

Jamieson Eildon Road (the awesome one... its still gravel in the middle so don't take anything too new with 30 profile tyres)

and importantly Skyline Road (I know!) near Eildon

Basic recce notes will be available in two weeks with GPS references for TS, SOS, TF and SP.

I'll have that awesome deal R34 then Snowy... Wooster's bodykit is too ghey for even me!!

Anyone want a Bond bolt in cage for WRX? Got one in my office for cheap (painted with feet).

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
