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.

    • 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  
    • 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.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
