Steven Jones Nissan Skyline R35 Gtr Is The New Leader Of Quit Targa West Competition Modern Class.


Recommended Posts

Well done to Steve and Fabcar for there achievement at Targawest.

I know Steve is well known and has many freinds within the "grass roots" car enthusiast community in Perth, so to you eastern states guys, they are not only sharing an achievement, but just supporting and promoting a freind.

I was lucky enough to watch Targa West Last year while I was working over in WA and I watched Steve compete in his Lancer Evolution, and he was Damnn quick on some of the stages.

In support of Snowmans comments, I have driven on the targa west roads and taken a good look at them, and I know some of us here in Victoria would not even consider those roads a "hills run" - they are very fast and flowing and not very steep.

Before you WA guys jump up and down about gooseberry hill - I have mates whos driveways to there properties are longer and more challenging than gooseberry hill.

When you have events like Lake mountain sprint, Targa Tas and Mt buller, not only are the roads very different, in terms of surface and elevation, but the climate and weather conditions are different.

What I guess he is trying to say is, lets see how Steve will do in Events like these before getting all worked up.

The only person who can make some of these comments about Steve and his driving or why he won is the F@#KER who was in front of him at the end of the race..............no wait he came first.

If you cant make a comment that isn't derogative or in some way making a statement as to why he would not win some were else JUST GO AND GET A F#@KING LIFE...........

This topic was not started so the rocket scientists from the IT section can make one of their assumption statements, the kid won the race in honour of his fathers death so keep it to your self.

No this is not because I am living WA, it is because a few oxygen thieves need to think before they open their mouth.

lol jash is a angry man!!!

starionturbo is right (thats a first)... most of the guys in perth and that have posted on here are actually mates with steve rather than fans

    • 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.
