i have competed in the 2003 dutton rally ,,, it was fantastic... well i prepared the RENAULT CLIO SPORT it was the crowd favourite at the spc carpark... came second to the mini cooper s .. a very well preped race car ,,, we ran on street trim only to change air filter , brake pads and we took out the cat ,,, (cuz there crap) the clio was a animal.. it buzzed around overtaking lotuse elises..(X2) of them,,, but the king of the event was the black FULL RACE 32 GTR .. all the porsches died in the ass ,, gt3 turbos carreras. all karked it.... anyway i am interested but i wont be able to make it ,,,

hey menios, depending on the exact mix of events, something like a clio can be a top 10 chance too - the NSW event had heaps of wet skidpans, and big hp RWD cars get caned in events like that unless they have traction control.

mmm, FULL RACE 32 GTR....not a bad idea :)

appartently it will be under the xmas tree. not much use if I'm, still in Alice :D

BTW good interest so far, 11 names, that would be a great representation for SAU. Anyone else interested?

np Zane, there is no requirement for fireproof clothes so bikinis are OK.

Dan, I'm sure Kel will be in that, they'll probably have more luck with sponsors than the rest of us put together lol

I'll be back as event photographer again next year for both events - as well as the Mt Buller Sprint, so if anyone wants some sponsor images - let me know..

Apart from that Jason's put together some great pics from the Dutton for us....

I was just speaking to Anthony Moss (NSW Director) today and he said that he already had nearly half the field confirmed for this years event. There has been no advertising or promotion of this years event, (they have been concentrating on the Porsche Mt Buller Sprint (on this weekend) and the response and confirmation has been enormous so far.

Official NSW launch will be in the next couple of weeks and the website will be updated etc. - so make sure you get in early as they will start to flood in as advertising starts and more people become aware of the event.

NSW Event

VIC Event

8th to 10th August 2004

Slight error - Vic is 6th to 8th August 2004!

I'm in talks currently to be possibly SAU's only Vic representative! I've been in contact with Sam Beck from VicDutton and I'll get my car onto the track (Phillip Island) for the first time Feb 15. If everything goes well then I'm very keen to give it a shot.

And if so I might have to come up to Syd and have a chat to you all during NSWDutton for some extra tips.

Cheers. :P

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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?
