All,

I have had too many bad reports etc from Luffy, apparently the course is not consistent enough. It depends on what instructors turn up on the day and to how professional and enjoyable the day can be. So I have decided to go with the Peter Finlay, you actually have to go and do an arvo with him anyway to actually get your license, so we will stick with him.

Some info:

Proposed date 6 & 7 August, 2-day course.

16 people Max, (first in Best dressed)

Day 1 Advanced driver training

8.30 Cams Lecture

8.20 Basic skills

10.00 Practical on cct

10.45 Braking, test theory practice

12.30 Lunch

1.00pm Brake in corner

2.00 Evade and recover

3.00 Cornering, line etc

3.30 Practical cornering

4.30 Close

Day 2 High speed track work.

8.15 Scruitneering

8.30 Cct walk

9.30 Track time

10.30 High speed braking

12.00 Lunch

12.45 Cornering

3.00 Ckeck lap with instructor

3.30 Starts

3.45 Qualify under stop watch

4.00 Cams simulated Rade 5 laps

4.30 Close and qualification granted.

At the end of the days you RX your C3 racing and R3/R5 Rally license.

Cost $570 for both days, for 16 people, if we get less down to 12 people it will be $605.

Peter said If I organize it and get 16 people there I can drive for free, so if we do get 16 people there, I will pass my free days onto every one and hence the $570 cost.

What do we do from here? Well I would like to see the post for the first 15 people who are interested. Second I want to collect a $100 deposit to go to Peter Finlay to book the day. This will be non-refundable unless you can find someone from the forum to take your place.

I made sure the date was far enough into the future so money could be arranged and also Peter and Oran Park availability came into play as well.

If anyone has any objections or suggestions please let me know in a PM. If we can get 16 people who can commit it should be a dam fine 2 days.

Thanks

    • 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.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
    • hi mate, HKS cooler piping still available by any chance?
