I’d like to announce an addition to the SAU-Vic Motorsport Championship.

Sunday 9th November – Phillip Island will be added to the championship as the eighth round. The motorsport committee has decided because of the loss of two rounds we would like to make this addition. The championship was originally comprised of seven rounds. But in actual fact, even with the edition of Phillip Island we ultimately will only be competing in six rounds.

Morewell – 10th May was cancelled due to the old hill climb track being decommissioned and relocated.

Calder – 5th July was cancelled due to becoming financial unviable for the WRX club to run. Calder Park have significantly increased their hire fee’s this year and it was going to end up costing around $350 per entrant to run this event. Which I’m sure we all agree is not worth it.

The event on Sunday 9th of November is run by the Phillip Island Auto Racing Club (PIARC) www.piarc.com.au and will be a timed sprint day. PIARC also run an untimed practice day on the Saturday (8th Nov)

Many club’s and days were considered, but the PIARC day was chosen as our best option from a club championship perspective because its everyone’s favourite track, everyone will get a spot that wants to come and the price

is good usually good at $140. We know the track gets busy at these events but given half the SAU crew are probably going to attend this event regardless it seems like the best option.

Hehe, it will be my one and only day this year :D I may get out there on 21/22 September but dont know. Jack, can you PM me your email address. The old girl needs a tow from workshop to workshop to workshop getting some work done, ready for a triumphant comeback, ready to ... crash again :)

can we just do the practice day or do you have to compete both days?

Of course you can just do the practise day. But as far as the SAU Club Championship goes only the Sunday counts obviously (since there is no timing on the Saturday).

cool. How does it work with $$ though? Does the $140 (or whatever it will be) cover the practice day and sunday timed day? Or is $140 each day?

Feck Troy, imagine we both got our cars ready for this day... I think the world would stop turning on it's axxis and we'd all vanish into a black hole... or some such nonsense :cool:

lol. Yep, but your car is cool and will be a weapon when it makes it title fight return to the ring. Mine is just getting some fresh bushes and wheels etc. So will still be pushing shit uphil with my index finger with regards to imroving times ;) LOL, i will die trying for my 1:21.4 with an RB20 at Sandown. Have to beat Scotsman's GTR times :O

My car should be quick in theory, if not for the schmuck behind the wheel! lol

I've got a long way to go to catch you mate... but chasing the GT-R's should keep the motivation going :D

Shane: It'll be good to get another S13 out there, should be some good battles

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • 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.
