From memory long wang anything under 55sec is pretty good. Best drivers on mini wang get under 25sec.

Good to know, I'll be aiming for about 1m20s then :P

How do you guys normally travel up there?

I'm heading up on Friday Night after work, do you normally convoy up there or just meet at the Motel?

Was planning on leaving from Melbourne CBD at approx 5:30pm or so... (picking up a few guys from the city on the way)

Good luck with that! Ring Rd will be standstill until at least 6.30-7pm

Either leave by 3pm or don't bother until after 7pm. It'll take you an extra 45-60mins if you try and go in peak, if not more. I tried it once, never again.

Ask your boss to let you go early Simon. I'm leaving Doncaster 4.30 - 5.00. Last time I left straight from work at 4.30 it took a really long time to get to the Hume. I'm just glad I didn't leave any later..

Ha, good point :P

Bit tricky with the guys I've gotta collect on the way...

Meh I'll give them some notice and they can suck it up and leave early as well.

:thumbsup: <--- Good friend.

Or just go and sit @ pub for an hour or something and wait for the traffic to die off if you cant leave early.

Ive done that before (when not the driver). As it beats sitting in a car for an extra hour

Or just go the back way like I do (if you happen to live close enough) through Yea & Seymour and you avoid all the traffic.

That's axactly what I'll be doing this time as I'll be leaving after work and will be wanting to avoid the traffic!!!

I cant remember the last time I worked on a DECA Friday :(

I'll probably oraganise a convoy up on the Friday night if anyones interested simply because there's like 11 of us in our group going up together.

I owe you drinks this DECA mofo, ps I'm going up Friday night too!

    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
