LMFAO.... I just laughed until wee came out.

We met Eric from Cosworth and Team Sierra Sierra at the bar on Thursday evening and were explaining to him the virtues of a certain "tool". He's obviously taken aboard our fondness of it and has suggested there might be some kind of sponsorship brewing for Berry's team!?!?!

Take a read of the link, the sponsor is alluded to on page three I think it is..... within the blurb on Mark's R34. :D

it's GOLD!

lol, I'm flattered I got a mention but how come I got pinned for the tenga egg!! marlin is the bloody expert, i'm just a part time admirer and supplier of their 'equipment'. still I did give eric a 'sample' which he promised to pass on to richard raeder (SSE owner). I hope Eric didn't try it first? marlin tells me they are no good second hand... :ermm:

reckon!

Would be even beter if the promo girls were walking around with giveaways and doing the odd demo for the boys :D

ok, now you've got me thinking. BRB, got to call tenga and sow this deal up...

lol good son of rajab. quite an interesting device indeed

Wonder if the crew member will clarify the incorrect turbo info? :P

Finally got video's done with data logging overlay.

Unfortunately in the 1.39.6 the video camera died on the way out of the pits.... Isn't it always the way...

Here is a 1.40.2

Here is me chasing Andrew (JET200) on his very first session in his car. Look at the way he drives away from me down the straight. Pretty crazy what 100rwkw (I had 265rwkw) more looks like down the straight! I want more powwwahh :)

if it's still in the spec it was at for WTAC 2010 then it's a bloody good buy for $45K. there's some great cars around at the moment for sale for cheap.

At 2.00 mark i do a 1.38.1 lap time...

I finished 8th in Open Class with a lap time of 1.37.9840. That was my 2nd time ever at EC still lots to learn.... Any comments and tips will be greatly appreciated.. Cheers

Well I reckon you gave that a pretty decent crack mate! :)

I'm far from an EC expert, but I reckon Turn 2 was kind of sucking you into a slightly early turn in, would you agree?

I've driven a few Evos, and they all benefit from left foot braking techniques (loading part throttle boost against brake pressure) mid to exit of the corner...... maybe try mastering that.

Helluva car you have there :) Good work!

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
