thanks for a great day guys. I had a lot of fun and got to drop a few skids in the xr6t. Only thing i'd change is that last battle, everything else was great.

Is there a list of times that comes up at all? Would be nice to compare.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for coming!

Thanks to organisers and helpers for braving some of THE most REDICULOUS weather I've ever seen! I'm burnt like hell from the sun and my feet are peeling skin from the rain. The wind actually broke my umbrella!

Thanks to UNIGROUP ENGINEERING for the prizes to give out! (Don't forget, afternoon dyno day there on the 6th of March!)

Thanks to the Camaro boys for giving us a good show!

Thanks as always to the Canberra guys for doing much the same, and the commitment to travel all that way for a flat bit of tarmac! :P

Much the same to the Wollongong boys!

Times will probably be up some time tomorrow.

Awesome day folks.

As for sunburnt - doesn't even begin to describe my forehead. Maybe Sunroasted, sun-char-grilled.

Its way beyond burnt.

Was great seeing some nice cars driven in anger :-)

As for the Camaro's. God Damn!

But safe to say Coilovers 1 - Leaf Springs 0

lol. good work today everyone, I enjoyed some skids despite the shithouse weather for part of the day, and it looked like there were plenty of people enjoying the skids!

good work from the camaro guys too, I think a lot of the courses were a bit tight, but man they smoke tyres and sound good.

Thanks to UNIGROUP ENGINEERING for the prizes to give out! (Don't forget, afternoon dyno day there on the 6th of March!)

Indeed, a massive thanks to Yavuz at Unigroup Engineering for the prizes we gave out today.

Also, a big thanks to all the people who organised and helped out today - as Chubbs, Steve-O and Doof have already mentioned, these days could not go ahead without your help and support, so THANK YOU!

Had an awesome day today for a first timer too! Thanks to everyone involved for putting it together. Ran very smoothly! :P

Oh and the rain made it more interesting.

Good to meet a few new faces too!

thanks doof, might see when mats leaving.

I'll be at the truck stop just before Picton Road (On Mt Ousley) leaving at 6AM from there...

(Matt the rb30 breaker)

Are you bringing your trailer?

did you make it home OK?

did you make it home OK?

I made it... But the age ol' RB30 still has that horrid rattle in it...

Seems to mainly be when free revving and taking off, once properly loaded it "seems" fine...

Meh... That's what you do to $600 motors... I hope I pleased everyone with the effort... :D:P

And to everyone who organised, THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH, I don't think I've EVER driven my car that hard EVER before... I especially liked taking on that GTR in the first battle, whom only got home first as he missed the gate... :rofl:

hmm may not be a bearing after all then (although you bloody deserve it if it is :P) generally a big end is a rythmic knock that gets worse when you rev it (more revs = more load = more noise)

Yeah, it seems to shut up once I've got it loaded...

And come on, I've already done a big end... Or are you meaning I deserve it for such avid use of a hard limiter?

Great day guys - thanks to all the organisers....steveo, neil, duncan, chubbs, dr top bloke, ando, spanna and stu! (sorry, editted!)... top effort boys

glad to see the mighty 180 survive yet another thrashing! So stoked to see it finally running nicely.... an SR with no rattle... after 100,000kms...AMMMMMMMMMMAZING

oooo and thanks for my prize! Unigroup..here i come!

your car has a rev limiter?????

I call it a rev limiter, every else seems to call it a bang bang feature...

    • 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?
