Thats farked. They are cheaper then the street yoko tyres people are running and way, way cheaper then A050s :(

If enough people run them. We will create a. Class to suit.

You can still run them now, but cannot accure points.

sorry for the delay but WRX club have still not released the official results but I don;t think any-one from SAU got any penalties so we should be fine.

Actually john, your carbon bonnet qualifies as a large weight reduction, also putting you in modified class.. and probably should have been in other rounds if you had it on last year. Also it's the cannards as well as you said the rear wing i.e. non-factory aero

OK so as we have found out WRX are cancelling their round in June.

We looked at a number of solutions to this including picking up the date ourselves and running the day, however we don;t feel we have enough time to get it sorted properly and advertised enough to fill.

So what we ahve decided is to Pick another track day on the same day and run with that.

After talking to a few of the regulars it was 100% in favor of running another PI event.

AROCA are doing a day on the 30th and run a very professional event.

So round 3 will now be PI on the 30th, information will be posted when entries are up.

AROCA do sell out fairly fast so I encourage people to get entries in ASAP when entries are open.

Cheers

Martin

updated xls should be up tonight or tomorrow with the updated info in it.

That is up to interpretation.

Canards yes, for sure. Although they do 10 tenths of f**k all.

Bonnet, major weight saving...like I said, that is up to interpretation. Under 1% of the cars total weight.

Easiest thing to do is for you to get back out on the track with a car that does more than 3 laps! lol

Will you be back out there this year? I'll be on AO50's for SAU Nats at this stage.

Open for interpretation indeed. Either way, it's about time you stepped up to modified RWD class instead of taking easy class/championship wins because you had no real competition in standard RWD hence getting the 10 points every round :D I look forward to it.

My car is actually just being finished this week but I'm not sure when I will take it to the track next, maybe the next Sandown club sprint. Not fussed about championship rounds this year... just want to give it a shakedown and see how it runs. I'm thinking of ditching my long time trusted bridgestone RE55's and switching to AO50's, I know they are a quick tyre. Hankooks are a possibility too.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
