SAU-NSW Advanced Driver Training (Great Deal) Nov 12/ Dec 12/ Jan 23

Yep.. I mashed that wet corner and pretended i wasn't expecting the back to step out just to demonstrate to myself what happens. Stage 2 is where I try to control it.

Coming into a corner normally at 60 and hitting 'go' before the apex with a fair amount of lock still on is about as stupid as stupid ideas goes. But it's a good exercise and reminder about things going pear shaped.

This morning my manager came around to my desk and asked what I was doing this Friday. I correctly replied that I was doing the driving course again.

He didnt want to see my face around work on my day off like last months mix up.

Who is going to remind me closer to the date?

How close is this - My R33 will be started for the first time in 6 months tomorrow - Run in on Thursday - ready for Friday !

Maybe ..........

Fingers crossed I get my car issues sorted out before the weekend.. rear caliper sticking on and strange whirring noises in the engine bay :D

Hmmmm - would that whirring nosie be - ummm - a TURBO ??? :)

I hope you get it sorted Kinks !!

Cheers,

(for fridays skid pan)

I would just turn up with the cash on friday, he doesnt seem to be a really strict guy. Try getting in contact with him tommorow too.

Hope to see you there on Friday. This time i've got the day sorted.

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
