R5 - Phillcom Rally Time Attack Round 2 October 5th

NOW OPEN - Expression of Interest

I'll be down for the Time Attack again :happy: hopefully the weather will be a bit cooler so i can run full boost for the whole day unlike last time.

Congratulations to Douglas Lehmann (Open Modified) and Corey Armstrong (Club Cars) for winning the AWD Turbo Challenge Round 4. The SCCSA Wintercup 2 Collingrove Hillclimb was again damp early with near perfect conditions for the afternoon runs. Great to see so many competitors recording personal bests! The leader board is starting to look a little more interesting with only 3 rounds to go!

Two rounds remaining in this years AWD Turbo Challenge, and the top 9 drivers in Open Modified Class are separated by only 5 points! What a ripper way to lead into the SA Hillclimb Championships Collingrove and Pirtek Legend of the Lakes Hillclimb Mt Gambier!

    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
    • Mine is all -12, I’m running a dry sump in a billet block though 
    • HG's high flow is not "bolt on". The core is shorter, moves the comp cover rearwards in the engine bay. means you have to deal with the inlet plumbing a little bit. This is probably something to consider with every "bolt on" turbo anyway.
