my car was faultless and performed brilliantly all weekend only issue i had was a bend tie rod and castor rod bracket being out of wack after a hard hit when tom monkhouse spun in front of me. steering wasnt the same afterwards but being the drifter i am i made do with what i had. was running some crazy toe out at the end... something like 30mm out. flicks in HARD hahaha.

Your car looked good out Simon, the rear screen sunvisor thing is cool!

Fixed the video links, for some reason youtube provides the wrong links for original hot-linking.

Your code:

What it needs to be:

It's the extra "&hd=1" thats telling the video to go to HD 720p, it doesn't like to be hotlinked for some reason, might be cause HD video wont work in a forum size box as well. Will look into it anyway.

You were out @ opposite sessions to us which was a bit of a PITA. Next time hopefully it'll workout a bit different with sessions.

Plus us Track Battle guys all know each other, so we all went to a pub (about 10mins away) for lunch both days as we had 2.5hrs between mornin/arvo sessions so i think we spent a good 1.5hrs chillin there enjoying Lemonades... :cheers:

I reckon it was a great event, you drift guys really did some epic carnage to your cars and each other. At one point we were trying to pick which cars weren't gonna come back with damage, was great viewing indeed! Was really well run from the Track guys perspective.

How bout you guys? Looked like it was running well?

cheers. i wish it was a tad louder... if my car sounded like that Red 33 high tech oils one i'd be quite happy haha.

was a great event.. as you said mega carnage. was my good mate in the blue 32 who wrote it off earlier on in the sat so was a real damper on the moods to start with. very un forgiving layout but we all had fun. as you can see drifters are a uncaring bunch.. most were going for broke lol.

the time attack stuff was a great idea to put with it... it gives the crowds something else to watch. and the sounds from the cars going full noise all the way round the dome while standing in the middle of it is brillant! i had no idea what sort of times people were doing as the PA down our end of the pits was lacking big time!

    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
