DON'T HATE ME I AM ONLY TRYING TO HELP.  - Malcolm.

I don't doubt that you are Malcolm, and I do agree with most of what you're saying, but your overly harsh tone and aggressive first post left a lot to be desired and wasn't conducive to getting people to take your comments under advisement.

Malcolm

Without echoing too much what I said previously in this thread, it's great to see you so enthusiastic about making this show even bigger and better than this years event. You're enthusiasm and good ideas will certainly be very useful to us when planning furutre events.

Please consider joining the organisational comittee next time as it would be great to have you on board :rofl:

After reading all of the comments after Malcolm's post, I think it is quite unfair of all of you to attack him like that. It seems like every person who has responded is part of setting up Show and Shine and has taken his comments TOO personally. To me he was criticising the judging and thought the day was run fine. I don't see a problem with that because I mostly agree with everything in his post!  

How about you all take a chill pill and stop attacking him for being the first one to make a negative post on this thread, and actually read what he had to say and probably use some points to rectify the judging problems.  

Granted, his post does sound like a bit of sore loser but still... as execs, say your thanks for his comments, note them down and do something about it! Stop making excuses like, we are young please leave us alone we will do better next time without your opinions. We know that it was the first show, but doesn't mean his post is wrong!

Here's the thing Sura- I would gladly given credit to Malcolm's comments if he had not been so negative AND had expressed a willingness to get involved in fixing things, rather than just going on about everything that was wrong.

You know what else? I would be taking it personally if I had volunteered my free time- unpaid - for the good part of a year to organise this event, and then jumped on the board to read a post 'attacking' my efforts.

Like I said feedback is fine, great even. But the approach taken by Malcolm was so totally wrong and would have been much better placed in a completely new post which asked for constructive feedback and suggestions for improvement.

And for the record- I played no part in the organisation of this event :Oops:

Sorry Merli- I shut up now!

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
