i'll be coming in for a look on friday afternoon, i'll have to catch up with some people while i'm there

Oh awesome!! If you dont see me out and about..please come say hi up in the control tower..Ring me if you have any problems!

I know....Counting down the days

Basically all next week is going to be SUPERLAP WEEK.....EPIC I think YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup::(:)

Yeah, i don't think i'll get much done at work next week! Going to be buggered from the flight, but i'm sure the cars will make up for it. :D

Yeah, I'm not even remotely excited!

Big news too everyone, Mark Berry's lovely wife Fi is having twins today.... :( MArk's pumped, lil boy and lil girl. Good package deal I reckon :(

Wow, i can only imagine how hectic his life must be at the moment. Haha. Must be a very understanding wife!

^^ I reckon that is a good starting point for lap times. Are you talking about the fastest car in each class with those times?

There are alot of street registered cars with plenty of mumbo, they could get down to a 1:44 in Club class.

Sub 1:40 should be achievable in Open class and I think we may even see a 1:30 in Pro class

Perhaps the Club class goal of 1:44 is too low?

I've done a 1:49 there on semi's with 190rwk's in my Silvia so maybe 1:48 is more realistic? I don't know what type of power and mods the best of the club class cars have?

Any ideas on who might be at the top in Club class? Any specs or details on the favourite in Club Class?

Only time will tell......

i'm with marlin. if track is good 1:32 will win pro. if tracks off it could be as 'slow' as a 1:34. so maybe middle ground of a 33 will be on the money. eastern creek does vary a bit depending on track condition.

open class maybe 1:36 to win on a good day 1:38 on a slow day.

club is an interesting one. I'm not really sure but I'd guess the top guys will be in the low 40s. maybe a dead 40 or 41 will do it.

1:44's is pretty close to the mark for clubsprint (perhaps +/- a second or so) i would say

Most of the international guys would have to be here by now. Has anyone seen them out on track?

im curious as to how the visitors go about getting the cars around and stuff while over here?? do they organise it, grab a yellow pages and find a tilt tray... or does the event organiser take care of them and organise everything they need??

where are the cars kept?? at the track?? at their hotel?? at the event coordinators house/workshop etc??

im just wondering if theres 10 full blown time attack cars sitting in a hotel carpark somewhere... that would be a fantastic sight.

lol, Ian from hi octane is helping the OS guys with organising transport etc for them. as for where the cars are at any given moment I don't think that knowledge would want to be made public as sadly there are people out there who would see it as an opportunity for theft or vandalism either of which would be devastating to the event and peoples image of our country.

    • 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?
