Hi guys.

Just something I've been thinking about, I couldnt really squeeze time off this time round to go to superlap this year. could have but family business, its in my own interest to knuclke down and make mullah.

So, next year I'm planning to go. But rather than just fly up and watch, I think I'll organise a trailer and tow my car up and have a crack. Would be a fantastic experience.

obvioulsy I'll be putting some more work, time and money into the car but the aim is to go up, have fun and hopefully come back in one piece. would be a great learning experience, still get to see some of the worlds fastest cars in action and get to steer at EC.

would either enter street tyre class or Open (semi's)

probably going to have a spend min 5k between now and then, but thats fine.

and without the car itself, fuel in the tow car, accommodation etc and meals and entry plus ferry, i'd guess 3-4k. thats allowing 1k for fuel 2k for ferry.

I have family in syd, not too far away, maybe 45 minutes from EC, plus I think I can nab myself a trailer for nix.

so if anyone was thinking of having ago and would be keen on a roadtrip, something to think about anyways. :cheers:

HSCC are working towards hopefully running Tasmania's first time attack event either later this year or early 2012.

Discussions have been underway for a little while as to the best event format for the first event.

If it all ends up going ahead as planned you will all have plenty of notice :).

I was about to say, we should have our own Time attack here in Tassie! With Black jack! and hookers!

Every driver that has a fit Mrs, sister or mother has to submit them as promo girls that can walk around. All the not so attractive ones can just go be flag marshals.

Two Classes, Street and Open.

Streets have to be road legal and registered, can't go faster than 63?

Open is what ever. Need a cage and all that fun stuff.

Sounds great, exactly what the tas motorsport scene needs. I'm sure it will be very popular, I'm keen!

Don't get me wrong, i think 'timeattack' is good will get more people in. I have wondered why one of the clubs didn't rename their supersprints to timeattack to entice more young people.

Because old people that hate young people organize it :P

marketing marketing marketing! tis important.

I think it will take off, its something that seems to be growing well world wide. And I think because it will put all different types of cars in the mix, it will be healthy for the local motorpsort scene.

it shouldnt be as hard on cars or equipment as drifting and should be less than super series I guess.

I do hope it takes off, would be great to see half a dozen or so events held each year. combine that with the hill climbs, drifting and super series etc bit going on.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
