Does this mean I need to buy and fit a front tow hook?

"h) All vehicles must have tow hooks fitted. Subaru WRX MY 01 onwards competitors

must ensure that their tow hook is fitted to the front of the car prior to scrutiny."

I hope not, cause it's gonna be a b*tch of a job..

there should be a factory one up under the front bar.

make sure you know where it is as they will prob ask you during scruit.

oh and make sure you fire ext is under 3 years old not 5 like it used to be, I have to replace mine after the last PI.

I just entered driver training, hopefully there is a spot left.

I have to fit a nylon tow strap as the stock one is no more and I will need an extinguisher too, other than that i'm unsure what the bonnet requirements are, can I tie it down somehow or do I need to fit some kind of pins? I would prefer to not drill holes in the bonnet...

if you have an OEM bonnet for a 1988 or newer car you have 2 locking mech and are fine.

ie the latch under the dash and the 2nd one when you flip the lever under the bonnet.

In :)

The previous owner of my N15 said last time he was at PI, the double bonnet latch wasnt enough, and had to use a make-shift "bunnings special" carabiner on steel rope as a secondary measure. I will be making one up just incase

They changed the wording in the CAMS regs, if the bonnet has two devices stock. It's fine.

I know which id prefer to have holding my bonnet if it popped up, especially at a track as fast as PI.

Hey just noticed on the WRX club website 'pending' against my name... is that because they haven't processed payment - or another reason?

that the one, just means they have either not charged your CC or they have not checked off your Direct deposit against your entry.

:dry:

The whole catch would have to fail, very unlikely. Then do you think the 8mm bunnings wire that most people use as a secondary will hold the surface area of the bonnet at 200kmh...Don't think so.

In part this would have been why CAMS changed the ruling.

I've heard of R33 bonnets fly up before only being held by by the 2nd restraint. 8mm wire is pretty strong and it stops the bonnet low enough you won't have the 'whole' surface area of the bonnet acting on it.

My thinking was it was there for 2 seperate 'systems' to stop brain fade. I'm glad I've got my pins, still sometimes I need to double check on the dummy grid I haven't forgot :)

Oh well if it's not needed it's one less thing for people to do for their first track day.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
