thats so shit.

they couldnt make any revenue on the cars (no defect because private property) so they're charging it all to one guy?

thats shit.

can you imagine the bill?

HWY patrol

Tactical response team

Riot Squad.

umteen hundred coppers.

vic roads to change the traffic signals.

i dont see less than $10,000k.

it cost $3,000 just to get a fire truck to a fire. imagine Vic pol.

What trouble was actually caused though? All I saw were some people revving engines. Everyone paid the $8 for parking.

I most likely won't go to another one though. I prefer our SAU meets where we can relax and not worry about 15+ police cars turning up. I got pulled over 2 mins after leaving yesterday.

I very much pity Oscar, he's a good person and had other shit go wrong car related for his this year as well, (including getting tagged by another car on the track)

But this is the issue with organizing things for an ad-hoc group.

and why we as SAU are are a registered Company.

SO I am organizing the Annual Show and shine atm,and the first requirement is insurance in case something like this were to happen so we are individuals are not liable

Hell the venue has a clause that we have insurance and need to provide to book it.

I hope the folk from JDMST step up and put together a collection to cover his bill.

plus they need to have a big look at how they organize this in the future, along with a bung of other "groups"

bottle was thrown from one of the upper floors

guy spat at a cop

BMW reversed into another car on little lonsdale.

commodors doings skids-nearly hitting children

I'm so glad just as I was about to enter they blocked off the street. I wouldve hated to be apart of that.

Toby what is your brake setup? I want to hit the track in the next few months. Got DBA4000 and some entry spec pads atm

Others who have been on track, please respond

Cheap QFM pads and RBF600 will be ok. Make sure you do a 5 minute cool down in the pits after each session. As those rotors are know to crack very easy.

lol don't act surprised, did any of you expect anything less...honestly...

Look at all that ignorance and contrasting experience in one thread.

It was always gonna turn to shit. I struggle to find sympathy for people who didn't see that coming and got owned for it. Let's see if the "close-knit" community of 300+ cars will chip in to help the organiser with their bill; see if their communal efforts are on par with how they behave at meets...

I've got the perfect solution...ANOTHER jdmst meet to raise money for the last...it can't fail!

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
