lol of course! They must be stoked to have taken a win in the car's first run, but I am sure they are disappointed that Garth's car died mid lap so they will never know how quick it would have been.

Congrats to all the competitors and Hi Octane, it looked likea great crowd and great day.

Awesome day guys, and congrats Mark and Russ.

I'm spewing there's so much crap in the way on this pic but still my fav of the day.

:(

Great pic!

Was a great day, some awsome cars. Wasnt as many spectators as i thought there would have been. And thanks (sorry i dont know you name) to the guy with a sau shirt on for letting me park down towards the pit area.

In the morning? That was me. No probs

Roy: Russman seemed fine all day, looks like he and the other Vic guys had a good time

Was the Vic Supra all noise liek usual or have they finally got that thing working?

Oh, and how did Markov go in his cleaner then clean white R32 GTR

Do you mean "SUPRAT" the red JZA80?

It looked to be kicking ass. Would love to know more about the specs on the turbo side and whats done to the gearbox (sounds straight cut?!)

Early in the day 2 SAUNSW members hand timed it at 1.19 (from memory)

Dont know about Markov's GTR, but its almost too clean for a track car. Wasnt slow though

Yeah I would love to point to the results webpage but its still got last years results :(

Sam M did OK he was somewhere between 5th and 10th overall. The car looks brilliant but maybe a little more time around the track there is needed?

Was the "vic supra' red? It was loud but I don't think it featured overall.

John's Zed came home 5th I think, and 2nd in the shootout.

The Elise that John B was driving came home first or second in open too.

Unfortunately the BSM GTR didn't get fixed in time but I'm sure it will be back next year and very quick once it is sorted in the new spec.

There were some good results too from left field like the IPRA Rx7 that came home 2nd in open.

Not sure where the black GTST came. In fact I noticed a couple of skylines there that I didn't know but didn't get to talk to everyone. I hope they ran OK today....

Sorry if I get the places wrong its all from memory.

There were some good results too from left field like the IPRA Rx7 that came home 2nd in open.

If left field involves a state champ, driver of the year and national runner up. Still a 230hp NA bridgey with a normal diff and gearbox is awesome.

The red s2k?

The Nismo radiator cap decided it didnt like sitting in a VTEC engine bay YO!!!!

No seriously looked like a Nismo radiator cap gave way and spurted coolant everywhere...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
