Hey folks, here's a cool opportunity. I've been contacted by the HSV club about their up-coming Eastern Creek day and they've extended an invitation for our club to come "Invade" their event.

Brett in their club actually drives a Skyline so you'd be in good company. He also says there is a good mix of cars that come out for these days.

The details are at their website: http://www.hsvclubnsw.com/?p=256

So why not get out and enjoy a friendly club environment that's at a premier racing complex! All members representing SAU are reminded to observe the rules & regs and to demonstrate good SAU code of conduct.

*THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL SAU EVENT

good on them :) for a long time the HSV/WRX days had been a closed, members only thing, great to see them inviting other clubs.

I reckon anyone interested in trying the new Eastern Creek should get along to this day, it is a damn expensive place to hire so opportunities don't come up often....and to me, supporting a club rather than a for-profit business is the way to go :)

Unfortunately when they upgraded Eastern Creek that was the design to have three track layouts North, South & GP. So now getting in on the GP is even tougher and still very expensive.

We're going to try to do more stuff with HSV and possibly other clubs so that we get the motorsport enthusiasts even more opportunities.

Of course it's not the full track. Eastern Creek was redeveloped for the express purpose of hiring both halves out seperately to make more money. Very few club, race or commercial events will make the whole track available - when Oran Park had this setup about 10% of their days were full track.

This day is only $190. Assuming the full track is around $25k to hire for the day they would need over 130 entrants to cover their costs at that price. Hiring just half the track make good sense for a club, and I hope they fill it.

Alternatively, you could pay about $130, or around the same for a day a MDTC or Wakefield - but you need to spend another $100 in fuel to get there and back

Hey guys, that's all good feedback but I don't see anyone actually saying they are going to enter. This is the new short track that should be a lot of fun. We have members from NSCC entering so you will be in good company.

We still have spots available so why not come along? I drive a quick HR31 but it is off the road ATM waitng for a new RB30/25 I am building.

I run all the HSV days and I have actually posted invites up here before with no takers unfortuantley. You guys are always welcome.

Let me know if you want to enter and go to the link: http://www.hsvclubnsw.com/?p=256 for all the details, regs, entry form and on-line payment.

SSCC, HSV, WRX, AROCA, NSCC are usually always well represented at these events, I would be going but Im spending the next month trying to work out how to make my car go fast in a straight line.

Sorry guys the day is now full - got 14 entries since Monday. You need to move quickly with these days.

Maybe come out for a look as lots of Skylines entered with one very quick R32 (WP 1.02) and lots of nice sounding HSV's. If so, come and say Hi. I am Clerk of Course for the day.

Next one will be a Wakey next April on a Monday. I'll keep you posted.

      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!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      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.
