matt if you need a driver for the caldy ill be keen, looking at getting one of these soon and keen to have a look and see what they are like.

Thanks for the offer, Matt. I'll let you know when it gets closer to the day. I need to convince Kim first.

They're not a bad little wagon. N edition is obviously the one you want, with a bunch of TRD suspension upgrades, Torsen LSD, Recaro interior and so on. Handling is their strong point.

I've tweaked our N slightly, bit of a play with fuel pressure and extra boost. It still runs the stock exhaust, intercooler, intake, yet I've managed sub 6sec 0-100km/h (5.8) coming off the line with about 10-12psi boost. When it was dead stock, and before I dicovered how to launch it with minimum fuss, the best I could manage was low 7sec 0-100km/h.

HPI did a review of the ST246W, in which they claimed mid 8sec 0-100km/h, not sure what happened with the test car but they are much quicker than the article would suggest!

Still waiting to hear back :ermm:

Gf checks my emails 4 times a day... :rolleyes:

+1

Got some more work done to the stag ... but no pics to prove it yet. :P Lets just say that she'll be shiny ;)

Chrome Mesh!? :P

Don't you start! :laugh:

Its got black mesh now :P A black painted front bar (was alwys black, but the paint a bit shit). And now some further attention to detail under the bonnet. Also getting the front windows tinted to match the privacy glass a bit better.

:thumbsup:

Is it true that there were defect stations set up outside after the event last year?

No.

no, thats not true. there were some people flexin' in front of everyone and were pulled up. As it is 99% of the time, dont be a dick, and youll be fine

One particular entrant will not coming back this year, despite applying and having his car on the cover of a magazine, because of his behaviour as he left last year.

    • 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.
