A couple from Sandown. Still doesn't really feel like *my* car but hey I ain't changing it cos it goes well even with a tard like me behind the wheel!

Haha - mate that's definitely your car because it never really felt like my car!

THIS was my car. (even though your car is definitely better than this thing ever was, it still holds my heart today).

some awesome pics in here guys, didnt expect a sub-sub section thread to take off so well, pleasant surprise!

The sliding in the dirt ones are the most dramatic and exciting i must admit, you have some cojones Harry, gotta admit, not sure i would have big enough balls to try that sort of stuff off the bitumen. Same thing for targas, scary close to trees :blink: it is a long time dream to one day compete at the iconic Tasmanian adventure however, what kind of budget would someone need for that as a minimum though?

k, keep the great shots coming guys!

here's a few of the slightly crazy 1200 coupe I had a few years ago. 230rwkw CA18DET and slow, vague steering were not a very nice combination. You certainly knew you were alive in this thing though. It was only really good for hillclimbs because if you did more than 2 laps of a proper race track, the turbo would fall off the manifold.

These are from Mt Cotton Hillclimb's corner known as Lover's Leap:

and one from Lakeside just before I sold it. This was just after passing a STi in the wet - got a little sideways under the bridge... this lap was still the FTD before they cancelled the event due to the number of cars in the wall.

Damn you've had some nice cars Harry!

Still wish I had gotten my old RX7 up there to lakeside when it first re-opened :( Silly me joined the Army instead...then sold it to buy a POS (the R33)

$15k is the minimum I reckon. Closer to $20k if you're running out of Qld like I do.

Could possibly do it tighter, but it's a "bucket list" event, so if you're going to do, then, "Do It!" :)

supra's first track day - a very wet Wakefield just after the resurfacing in Jan 2008 I think. I was planning on taking the CA18 1200 down there, but it was under the house with a broken diff and a fallen off turbo as usual...

and its second track day at QR the week after, getting hounded out of turn 6 by a couple of mates in their Z's:

I'll stop whoring this thread with my Supra now...

and keep whoring it with other cars!

the complete POS Sil80 that gave me my first sub 60 sec lap of Lakeside :)

and a couple on track just behind Ben(Marlin) - this is what happens when the front left wheel bearing craps out and gives you some serious knock-off at the end of the front straight at over 200kph...

All pretty much stock as, all driven to the track, no tyre changes nothing. Pretty much the slowest out there, but i still love it!

I think the most work I've ever done on a car at a track day is trying to set up a bloody GoPro camera. :thumbsup:

The N1 at Oran Park - man i miss Oran Park!!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
