my first day back at Lakeside since crashing almost 5 months ago, so of course it had to rain! I had the boost down to 10psi instead of the usual 16, and the wing and splitter removed so the car's back to normal.

To be honest I didn't mind the rain at the start - there was absolutely no pressure to go fast, just ease back into it. And I've always liked driving in the wet - so rare we get a chance to in QLD. Here's a couple of laps from the first wet session. Vid makes it look like just tippy-toeing around, but the next nearest car was 7 sec a lap slower.

The rain stopped for the rest of the day but it was very overcast and humid so it took till the last session for the track to dry completely. So we got a full range of conditions over the day which was something a bit different from the normal sprint event. My 60.2 in the last session was just fast enough to beat a mate's 250rwbhp 240Z for fastest on the day by less than 2tenths. Good fun!

That is why I use a QSTARZ BT-Q1000XT

We've now got the updated version. It now records at 10Hz instead of 5Hz and comes with new Ver 3.0 software with more features.

Qstarz is also releasing a 10Hz GPS lap timer with a colour screen and 2GB storage.

Group buy anyone? PM Me.

That really sucks big time, what happened? In the video someone mentioned driveshaft?

Yeah left driveshaft. Easy fix really... Lucky it was the last run of the 2 day event!

anyone want to buy a 180SX? I think I need an RB20DET R32!

Do it!

It is sounding a little off at the moment. It has got an exhaust leak somewhere....will be mega pissed off if the 6boost manifold is warped or cracked. Everything is tight and looks ok so need to have a look over xmas

That's what happened last time I went to PI. Manifold wasn't flat on the turbo face and the head face. Machined them and good as gold. No issues since.

Hi thought I would share what my year in the WA LF Performance Speed Event Series was like last year in video. Only the mistakes I made are in this short video for a laugh.

Enjoy the short video.

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
