Oh, and the nice lady at Auto-motion lurves all the SAU aliases - She told me it sounds like a "James Bond Movie".

So get those aliases onto booking sheets NOW people.

The offer only stays open for 7 more days - Then it is CLOSED ! Finito , Neyaa, Period,

Got your PM Akira - NP.

Ash - I'll check in again today with Auto-Motion. Aaron should be back from Indy now.

Folks, 3 days remaining (after today) on this offer.

Remember you only need minimum $225 down before the end of October - then $225 balance a month later on the first training day.

Those of you who posted "put me down for " but haven't filled in the booking form or paid the minimum deposit will not get a spot - So hurry now.

If you have any problems or questions - PM me or e-mail me at [email protected]. My mobile number is 0402 030 038 if urgent.

Cheers,

Folks - If you have been trying to call Auto-Motion and haven't been able to get through - This is because heaps of people have been ringing Aaron to find about about his fairly substantial crash and subsequent 200SX rebuild , at Indy on the weekend.

Luckily Aaron wasn't hurt - so the show goes on people.

I think there will be pics if the wreck and rebuild on the auto-motion web site soon. If anyone is interested, I have them on e-mail.

. . .

Last days Folks....

I take it those of you who expressed interest initially but haven't PMd me or booked aith auto-motion are out ?? If so this means more spots are available folks.

Cheers,

I've paid 2 deposits via telephone to Aaron Mcgill on Tuesday.

There should be confirmation from Auto -motion soon

I wouldnt trust this guy Brendan - he stole my bonnet idea while putting it on a better car :P

I'll see you again Akira in 2 weeks or so.

Hi Ash,

I rang them twice yesterday and e-mailed as well - I couldn't get through. I'll be rinning them every hour today until I get through.

Stay tuned buddy !

Cheers,

Brendan

I just now received a message back from Angella - She confirmed that she has 10 bookings. So that lines up with the 10 on my list.

I'll be getting an e-mail to confirm names over the weekend - but I'd say the 10 of us are all good !

Angella said that we could keep the offer open - I don't know how long for yet. SO if you want to come but havent booked - You may still have time to get on this baby !

Cheers guys - have a good weekend !

Brendan

  • 5 weeks later...

The first time I did a skid pan day I was freaked, completely changed the way I drive and the ideas I have about my car. THis is the idea of skid pan days, to teach you what your car is capable off.

if after 1 skid pan day he thinks he can drift a comodore then I suggest people pull over or move out of the way when they see a red comodore comming in their direction.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
