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!!

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
