Hey Fatz, count me in your number if it helps to get enough. In any case I'll meet you out there.

I'll be in the stock* blue Lexus IS200.

Yeah I know the car has the wrong badges on it, but I'm happy to support a club that actually promotes driving events unlike most other forums in Sydney!

* I swear, they're all like this officer!

No probs, i'll take pauls place.

One last run at OP for the silver Zed.

Fix up on the day Ok Fats? :)

Ron,

I have already paid, just drop the $200 in to UAS on your next visit!

Enjoy the day man, wish I was there!

Oh Giffarked!

I so should have bought the jerry cans today!!!

My car is drinking fuel like it's going out of fashion... IE... city mileage of around 24L/100KM... :) That is tapping the throttle every now and then... 2 full throttle squirts... :thumbsup: I'm up shit creek tomorrow... *Packs credit card for fuel stops*

Awesome day :)

Some clutch dramas early but all good after that.

thanks to John penno for bringing me out a new braided line and oil to get me going again.

competed in a couple of full on grid races, started mid field in the first one, first corner was a bit of a mess with every one trying to squeeze through.

Started on the second row in the next one and was able to win the drag to the first corner, led for three laps before a couple of the quicker cars squeezed through.

improved my lap time to a 1.25.41 so happy with that.

probably my last drive at OP and will be sorry to see it go, awesome track. :)

thanks to fats for organising, enjoyed the tussle with the GTR, crazy driver though. :)

Was a bit taken aback by the Lotus' and race cars, but an awesome day apart from my brake failure. Well that lead to a necessary brake upgrade to R33 4pots in the paddock lol. Got to see some track time but not happy with the crappy pads I bought, lesson learnt.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
