Oh, and the hotel looks freaking awesome! Really it doesn't really matter where everyone stays, as the Saturday night will have a big dinner on that we will all be at, and everywhere is walking distance anyhow. Did you book 2 nights or 3 Pete - I am hoping 3 - would love to mosey back home at leisure on Monday and avoid all the traffic and night driving.

sorry Dion, just saw this..........yes mate, Country Comfort

Well I just gave them a call and they don't have anything big enough for us :/

I need something for 5 people, but they said for 5 people I will need to rent 2 family rooms, which will come to $260 a night, as opposed to the $166 a night for 5 people Im booked in for 2.2km down the road :/

To be honest, I dont think they would do anything extraordinary because they know the rooms will fill (if not by us, by someone else). Its like Kadina, we rent half the hotel each time we go and they've never done us a special deal. Having said that, barter with them though, because I got mine cheaper. Note, the prices on the hotel website are cheaper than what they say on the phone. :whistling:

It might not be the way you planned Steve but we've essentially accomplished the same thing - all staying at the one place!

Okay, we are staying at Country Comfort now, managed to strike up a deal with them.

ahh good man....good to keep us all together

Keen, but still waiting on Winton track day details/entry details (still approx 2 weeks away from being finalised).

Get online to the Country Comfort Inn today Ryan and book a room before it's too late.

You can always cancel it later and even if you have to pay a deposit but want to cancel later, there won't be a shortage of people wanting your room.

I'm so excited for this! I will have my new SLR too. I'm trading my Nikon D3000 in September, don't know what to get yet (Nikon D3100 or Canon EOS 1100D - unless I splurge and get the Canon EOS 500D or Nikon D5100), but I will get a 250/300mm lense, so plenty of Winton track shots will happen :) I always had the intention of getting a 300mm lense for the D3000, but never did, just had the 18-55mm.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
