oh yeah price defs starts to add up. i see the licence as something you pay every year enabling you to attend an event whenever you can. though i understand people who wouldnt get enough use to justify it

In the scheme of things though, it's probably the cheapest part of motorsport.

If DECA is a regular thing now and we get 4 a year it's pretty well justified. Never know when you wanna go club racing and can just do it on a whim.

so the issue was that the new owners required CAMS insurance not ASAA that we had been running under

Cams took a look and said hell no, no way is that safe.

so a number of car clubs (SAUVic included) did some working bees to put up tyre bundles and such to get it across the line.

CAMS have now given the OK on a safety front

so we good to go.

Yeah I'm more inclined to do DECA rather than a tack day less wear on the car.. my brakes would be cooked and would want an intercooler before going on the track, at least with deca it's quick little stints

Even though my car would be woeful with the current tyres, it's Achilles heel (plus it's just big, and auto)

Getting new front AD08R's fitted up tomorrow, current ones are flat spotted after my sandown incident. :/

Entries will be available very soon, throwing together a quick and dirty online entry page at the moment.

I see

Well that is good news

What's with the big price increase? New owners charging more for rental? Though it's been a while since I've done deca so it may be more incremental than it seems to me

last lot were 80-85 off top of head so yes it is an increase.

more rent, insurance cost more,

short of it is we will prob loose a small amount on it with the increase!

hahaha thats priceless. gifs deliver. P's plates is icing.

also the skidpan is so clean in those older vids...

Michaels V8 falcon was a lot of fun last time he went.

Note: couldnt find any ford crash gifs :(

Dunno what Achilles I have.. Sport 2? or something dunno lol

Would be shocking on the skidpan given that when I did it in my N/a 33 it span easily.. another 3x the power with shitter tyres.. hrm.

Simon seems a waste to scrap those fronts? how bad are they?

If anyone wants to buy cheaply I have some 265/18 R1Rs with fk all tread left and some KU31 235/18 with fair bit of tread but nearly fked shoulders

I'd put them on my car for deca but cbf

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • 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.
