just got home for the power cruise what a top weekend showing v8,s that 2lts can go just as quick down the straight and how good it was driffting around the back of the track .it was good to see there was a quite a few imports there having fun. allready working on going again next year

Wasn't too bad, Saturday would have been better but I was busy.

I'm still amazed at the lack of Trader stands for an event like this (but then again Summernats is no different). Rocket Industries are 1min away and they don't even bother showing up considering no doubt half the competitors would have bought from them.

ahh memories...Powercruise # that was me where 2rismo is...and Dave is playing the role of Macca from Steve's Speed Shop. How satisfying is it when people are looking at you, shaking their head, saying your mad...and a few hours later your out there ripping it up.

a few of us were looking at getting a garage next year but at 2 grand a garage is a bit extreme if you ask me plus you only get 2 cars in there anyway, i think were all jsut gonna camp and take a load of tools and spares with us.

was a good weekend though, im sure i saw many of you guys out there shame i cant remeber rego plates lol. im sure i saw Guilt-Toy at the back of the pit garages and on the track a few times,

wouldnt it be worthwile for sau to get a stand and promote at the event??

I'm pretty sure every 'line I saw there is already on this site... and so therefore, probably knows about the club.

Other then that, we do organise events, but surprise surprise, anyone that would sign up is already at an event, so it's all kinda pointless...

Plus I highly doubt it would turn out time or cost effective...

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
