Thought I'd make one of these, save having our comments extend the length of the organisation thread.

Great day as always. Weather turned out for the best (if not a tiny bit hot at times) and everyone was pretty well behaved. Good turnout and mix of cars. Shame we ran out of time in the arvo for the knockout and random battles, but we still got all the timed events done. Massive thanks to Bec & Ryan, all the volunteers who stood in the sun all day for timing, and MiColour for sponsoring the event.

P.S. Thanks to the people who lent me screwdrivers during subwoofer removal and reinstallation process ;)

Over to you...

Thanks to all the organisers and other volunteers for a great day. Looking forward to helping out at the next one!

Im currently uploading all my pics to flickr then I'll post the link, trouble is silly me decided I would upload them in full quality for everyone to just save rather than email asking but I had over 150 photographs and its been running for 6 hours so far and only 63% complete lol, Im sure it will get there eventually.

Awesome day! Had an absolute blast.

Met some cool people, learnt a lot about my car, discovered the handbrake and I actually remember most of what happened after taco bells this time!

Big thanks to all the organizers, Micolour and all the volunteers.

And without further ado - my pics, Further proof that being a volunteer is an awesome job as you are right in the midst of the action.

They need some major cropping and some photo adjustments but havent had the time yet!

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By PranK · Posted

      Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.

      Help please! Hole ontop of box?

      By Chupapy · Posted

      I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box

      By Duncan · Posted

      So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.

      Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
