I must say I had a great day yesterday at EC with my son.

It was Great to see all the race cars from yesteryear especially Winfield gtr and GIO gtr as well.

Aaaah the memories brought back were sureal just from the start on the second outing gtr took of from VL like a fury OMG that thing still goes hard as it ever did, However I'm sure it wan't pushed to the limit.

Bad luck for John Smith in the old Supra (blown piston) after recent engine/ turbo rebuild.(Mate of mine actually worked in his team on this car back in the day)

All in all great day out and I've picked up a copy of 92 Bathurst program for $25.00 bucks you got to love that.

Anyone else went???

Dave :thumbsup:

I was out there on Saturday, have over 150pics, but need about a week to sort through the crap :)

That supra was unbelievable. Obviously has been sorted out since its days as it used to be a mid-field runner at best.

Last race on saturday had the Supra and Terry in the Winfiedl GTR battling it out lap after lap with some awesome drag racing down the straight. Was amazing seeing the supra get better drive out of the last turn, but then the GTR would just keep pulling away down the straight.

Can't wait till next year, the best motorposrt event in Sydney each year, well maybe equal with superlap :)

I was on the grass at T1, so many yellow flags, T1 on the first lap with cold slicks and sheep stations at stake meant nearly every race someone came off or hit someone else, the kids loved it, poor old cars, some nice old girls were out.

Sunburned much though, balding head and no hat was a problem.

Awesome day.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
