Been waiting all year for this :)

just got to get the civic ready

Reverse figure 8, is the track ran backwards? or you go straight instead of turning left and going down the dipper? have only ran it clockwise

Edited by xris

ok so im about to enter, only thing im confused about, i know asaa licence covers it, but, club member? as in wrx or skylines aus member? im asuming i need to pay the $95 as im a sau member? let me know about that and ill submit the forms, 2nd event! be interesting to see the differences over deca

Heads up to people thinking of heading out to hh (bryant park) next month wanting practice this month.

GCC has an event this sun (I'm thinking of entering depending upon weather) entries close tomorrow 5.30pm.

Only 2 problems

1. If they get 100 cars, you really don't get many runs at all (where WRX is 80)

2. It's CAMS and not AASA, so anyone without CAMS it's extra $$

not what i wanted to hear martin! :yucky:

They are still better than cold high performance road tyre like a AD08 - so it's not a major concern.

It's more the brakes and having no heat in them on the reverse Fig 8 given after you launch you can have some fair speed going and need to jump on the anchors. Lots of time to be gained there if you know your braking setup performance from cold.

agreed but from what I ahve seen in the past they don;t get anywhere near that number.

meant to be a well run day as well.

we might be looking at doing some GCC rounds as part of our champ next year.

Heathcote timing never works, track condition depends on the moon.

Not worth driving up there for it. Better off going to Calder on a proper track with timing even though it costs more and you get less runs

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • 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. 
    • 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. 🤞
