This came up this morning on my usual email discussions with a few friends...

Now see i thought it was up for sale 12-18months ago?

I couldv'e sworn it was sold, and this would mean the new owners are selling...

Of course this all could be wrong as im a bit vauge on it all :cool:

Hopefully someone with a lot of money and passion buys it because it wouldn't take that much to make it much better.

It is also not at the mercy of having ever expanding residential areas complaining like Calder has.

Not that harder day trip for much of Melbourne, very easy for us here in Bendigo and many other regional towns in the area.

Little bit of a freshen up and some promotion of off-street racing would do the place a lot of good.

Last i heard Russell is going through divorce and has to sell it..

Doubt he will be giving it away cheap considering it's costing us close to 30k including insurance for the weekend..

$30k for two days?

damn WSID is cheaper (for a club event)

I love heathcote though (it's like going back in time about -30 years) lots of unregulated fun. At least not over-regulated anyway. The track has been for sale for years hasn't it?

Yeah it would of been easier to take over a test and tune like we did last time.. lol

He also wants a percentage of the money made from spectator entry aswell.. :)

But being the first nationals we don't know how many will be tuning up and we have to put up the sponsors banners..

The track has been forsale for ages but it's only been in the last 6 months that he really wants to sell it.

Not much we can do about it though, most of the guys don't want cages in their street cars and we need the numbers so heathcote it is..

      Ignition coil upgrade

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I understand that the R34 ECU can be sensitive to what is going on wrt the coilpacks/loom. You'd be well advised to put a Consult reader onto the diagnostic port and read the codes. The one(s) in the ECU will be the ones most likely to tell you what's going on. The TCS light will be a secondary effect.

      I thought about a floating dash head unit in my 33 but I decided against as I thought it would just get in the way of aggressive gear changes and when mounted that low you have to look away from the road (vs glancing across like modern car screen positions). I went with a Sony wireless CarPlay head unit: For the amp and sub, I made up a panel to mount to the side of the boot: the sub is a small kicker tube sub that fits above the fuel hat (you have to relocate the HICAS ECU).
