still more in it steve lol.

luke: yeah i know i had a list of ppl who missed out... and yeah for sure come for a ride!

yeah figured you would have, well put my name on the list for next time then :D

yea, bit of a woops on the skid pan, dunno how either lol,

just panel damage, nothing sticky tape and cable ties wont fix :-)

lol at iron chefs corner, scared the f**k out of me when it started looping i immediately thought " that wall looks pretty hard"

but all good, managed to slide that bend pretty consistant for rest of the day.

tax cheque is now spent before i even get it lol, partially on simon modding my knuckles! much needed! and solid cradle bushes, and a tune.

heres a vid on the skid pan with adrian as passenger, fabs in front,

I was pretty impressed at how hard people were going round 'Iron Chef Corner' and the straight following.

its pretty fun when its wet, limiter in 3rd with only 140kw, no chance at doing the whole corner in the dry with my car tho

Tailem ran a 400m event last year (September if I remember right)

It was good enough for my EVO X to run an 11.9

and a mates turbocharged LS1 a 12.2 (on Achilles street tyres of all things)

Now apparently its unsafe to run cars 400m there - although the surface was totally fine, CAMS even let us run in the wet, and there was no problem with that either. Let the Sporting Car Club run these meets and they will be 400m. For some reason ANDRA seem hell bent on making everything into an 1/8th mile....we already have four such tracks. We do not need another.

Standing 1000m would be even better. The deep end is where the fun is.

For a cheaper sport, try knitting, not castrating drag racing.

Twenty 20 short format suits cricket, not cars IMO.

Lobby the Sporting Car Club and we will get the 400m events back :)

Truer words have never been spoken.

I might head out for some runs at this 1/8th mile thing in August just for a look (haven't been to the TB track before), and for some legal tyre warmup burnouts (assuming they are still allowing THAT)

I just ran my car in hicas diagnostics mode and it flashed once but nothing else (to my understanding that tells me there are no problems) am I correct?

Car is 93 r32 Gtr with standard steering wheel and all that jazz..

Another happy Matsuri customer here! Spent a bit of time in Daves car and alot in Brads, was gonna find Craig for a run but couldnt find your garage haha.

Few cars a bit sad and sore afterwards, especially that s13 that rolled!

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
