Was a great day, I know a few of the drivers and managed to get some pics of my son driving the DR30. ;)

I saw a couple of GTR's including 3 R35's, but no Sau stickers. Who else made the trek down?

Awesome photos.. especially the DR30.. didn't realise that was floating around still :(.

It was locked away since its last race, Hadn't been started in nearly 20 years apparently.

Still had a lot of the original race parts like asbestos brake pads, you cant get closer to original race spec than that.

Thats correct. at least now we can see that the GIO car is the hands of a very good steerer. though im not sure what happend in the last race on sunday. he bogged down off the line, then miss shifted going from 1st to 2nd, then i think he had an off around the southern loop because when he came back into view around the back toward the hairpin, he was dead last!

it was awesome watching Terry carve his way through the field in the last race! he started at the back because he had a fuel pick up issue in the morning race (of which he was dominating!). in just six laps he managed to get from the back, up to 4th place (from memory).

In the Friday qualifying session Terry clocked a 1:44.9819! thats one for track guys who are going to phillip island in april for the wrx club day to think about... :blink:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
