BTW, to clarify, WSID set the terms and price for this hire. SAU:NSW will not make any money from this day, and it is difficult to fill due to the hire conditions.

However....we are committed to making the day happen for all of the club members who have asked for it....so please support it!

And more importantly....see if you can take home a "WSID booted me" trophy!

Hmmm, what do I need to bring home a trophy...

... I need NAWS, one of the big bottles! Naw, make it two. And I need 'em by tonight. :laugh:

Seriously though, looking forward to taking the GTR on a high speed pass!

Any entrant who is booted for running 10 or faster on our day will receive a trophy from SAU:NSW.

Each winner's trophy will be personally engraved with a message "WSID booted me out of the SAU:NSW drag day for running xx.xx. 9 July 2011"

Don't just say you can get booted....prove it and take home the silverware ;)

I love it, great idea.

Tonton, spectating is free because it is a private hire - but entrant's spectators will be given priority (it looks like our spectator allowance will be filled)

Why not enter instead ;)

Thanks John....are you going to win one?

I think spectators should be charged a fee....

if they arent coming with an entrant

So whats the go with this event.... normally names etc need to be given to WSID 2 weeks or so out from the event dont they and there isnt exactly a lot of paid up people....

yep, we will be providing the list of all entrants, their spectators, photographers and organisers in the week before the event; and yes there are still a fair few spots available.

As we said above, entrant's spectators will get priority, then member spectators, then others.

If necessary, the committee will review the event if we get close to the day and the club stands to loose significant money. The minimum hire charged by WSID is $8000 and currently we have $4200 in entries. If we are forced to cancel all entrants will have their entries refunded.

The best way to avoid this happening....is to enter and make sure we are not loosing our member's money on this event :D I think it is very unlikely we will be forced to cancel.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
