Hi

Just a Quick event post for 28th November

Mark Webber is coming to Perth with his F1 Car and his team.

This is an exclusive opportunity to indulge your passion for speed.

This is your opportunity to share the rush as you witness Mark Webber on track and racing the clock in his Red Bull Formula One car.

Hear Australia's most successful F1 prospect since Alan Jones speak about his incredible season at the top of the world' fastest and expensive motor sport.

This is your opportunity to immerse yourself in a day dedicated to the worship of racing and the vehicles human beings have developed to make themselves go faster.

The Fastest Day of Your Life is coming.

Be there.

I am probably a tragic. I admit it. I will definitely be considering (!!) tickets. Great to see Webber and the Red Bull Team here. That alone is worth the ticket. But ... .... .... .... ...

... ..

.... ... ..

... ... .... ...

... ... .... ....

Bathurst revisited is Holden and Ford only. :(

The "super cars" are Porsche and Ferrari, with some 'Vettes and Cobras thrown in. I love the 'Vettes and Cobras but really they should be in historic or something! Unless it is a ZR1 'Vette. But then, if you are having a 'Vette, why not a GTR? :)

Eagles vs Dockers - probably in John Hughes supplied Hyundais. Could be fun, if I was interested in the Eagles or Dockers. Why not get the Perth Wildcats and the Western Force involved as well?

So far we seem to have the Holden/Ford Footy view of the world, with only the "super cars" they've heard of. No Astons or Bentleys? No Lambos? No SLK Mercs? Come on Barbagallo - you're not trying!

Racing Trucks are a gas! :)

Now then - Motoring Club Displays. Any chance we might get an SAUWA display? I couldn't see anything on the website to get in there. Or are they not recognising Jap Crap?

As I said, I am trying hard to be supportive of this initiative in Perth. son of rajab knows we need events like this. But why does it have to be put together by people with the least imagination? I really do not want to pay money to see the Docker vs Eagles in Hyundais and yet another Falcadore festival.

I have stopped buying Top Gear Australia magazine and gone back to the UK one, because the only cars the Aussie one talked about were the usual Falcadore crap. Give me a break!

Bah humbug. :bunny:

I too was a bit dissappointed with some of the support categories not being a bit more open, but I guess this is there first attempt, so they're sticking to whet they know will draw a crowd.

As for MotorClub displays, I belieev they selected a couple Clubs (Porsche and Ferrari), rather than open it up.

I think the only Jap Car representation will be in Street Cars and IPRA.

Yeah, Exactly on the money, first time event wanting become an annual show here in Perth.

We need to make this a success and not just stage another fuel flannel burning event.

Point of difference will be the class of cars i.e Price v HP v Skill on the track. Most people in Perth I imagine would never heard the sound of an F1 car.

Bonus, also we will have the show-ponies that we see around St Georges, put through their rubber wallets....\who doesn't want to see those cars plastered on the track rather than parked on the side of the road in front of some cafe......

Having had an opportunity to go to F1 GP, I must say , F1 car overlapping the V8 Touring car vs Street Machine vs day2dy sport coupe is really an awesome demonstration.

oh, and the F1 car doing a burnout is something all together different and exciting :P

This promises to be a show........with wings !!!

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By Chris_Guthrie · Posted

      Both of those things are on my to do but not quite in a position to do that just yet until I can at least get it running back to stock. Going to work on getting the exhaust manifold gasket and studs replaced first, an obvious need it now. Then I'll try out the new maf and see hownthat does. After that I'm thinking cas if I'm still having the same issues. Still need to run the fuel out and refuel I'll change the fuel filter tomorrow along with cleaning the iacv with carb cleaner. If all else fails I'm going to get a serial port and see if I can get some sort of data on what the ecu is seeing when the issue is happening but really hoping one of the methods above work out first. After I get a good base I'm going link but have to save for that so it'll be a while for that based on my tuners suggestions. Definitely need the exhaust leak fixed first though car has always fallen flat after about 4-4500 rpm since I've had it and suspecting that's the issue. Then I can move forward with the rest.

      Rebuild vs second hand NEO?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My vote is rebuild s2 engine or maybe get a neo (but expect you may need to rebuild that too). Doing an engine conversion you would have to be a true tragic nowadays and actively be aware there's better/smarter options for value.

      Or buy one someone built earlier! (realistically V8 mustangs or MKV supras are great). I see people nowadays putting ZF8's into MK4's, and people putting 370z gearboxes, diffs, axles into R and S chassis and it's like.... just get a 370z at that point and mildly boost the 3.7 instead of the 2L and away we go...

      If you're going to go v8 or really any swap now with all the tax, I'd most likely just get rid of the car and start with something else. Unfortunately, I have a mate with a surplus of ls and Ferrari/Maserati v8's that's always tempting me FFS lol.

      If you can get a clean, tested neo from Japan for $3500 these days, it's probably worth getting either way, hard not to be skeptical at that price. Otherwise probably rebuild the s2.
