Hi

A couple of guys have asked quickest way from the City. I do the run every day and it won't be fast, but best is same as God_Speed has suggested, but don't go on M4. From Gipps St go Concord Rd, Wellbank St, Pomeroy St, Underwood Rd, Australia Ave, Bennelong Parkway, Hill Rd, Holker St.

It's more complicated but definitely quicker at that time of day.

If you want a map of where we are on Holker Street just email me at [email protected] We are the driveway off Holker Street about 100m to the west of the main entrance to Silverwater Jail, but on the opposite side of the road. Directly opposite the large white oil tanks.

Cheers

Andy

In the back of my mind I thought cutting through Olympic Park might have been an option but I wasn't completely sure. Thanks Andy that's good to know!

Looking forward to tonight. Hope the demo cars for the vinyl wrapping don't need to be spotless as the forecast is for some showers later today.

Also I have some carbon parts left from my group buy, anyone who want to take a look at them or possibly buy them tonight, let me know!

Hi All,

Please check your name on the list for member status. If you have recently become a member and there is not a M next to your name, I need to know.

Personally I have avoided cleaning the Stag recently with the excuse I will learn to do it properly.... that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

@matt i cleaned my car twice on the weekend and kept it under the cover until today, parked in a carpark. I will bang my head on a wall if this is all spoilt by rain on the way.

Hope you can get out of work early and get out there faster then mate. Radar doesn't look at all bad at the moment though

Same! haha

its been dirty since i attended a motorkhana day 3 weeks ago

but all the rain we've been getting lately, semi cleaned it lol

is it possible to do some shopping before hand as i have to leave around 830 so will miss out on the HOK wrap & shopping at the end :(

Cant make it tonight. Sorry for late notice.

Im stuck at work on a shutdown still and doesnt look like i will finish any time soon.

More overtime means more gate??

That's a damned shame, mate. I even lined up a shopping trolley just for you!

BTW people, this map points out Holker Street, but the Megiuars/MotorActive workshop is on the OTHER side of Silverwater Road, not where the "A" waypoint is on that map... If you're coming from Silverwater Road, you have to head in the direction of Olympic Park and the Jail, then turn right into the estate.

I'm completely confused now....

Edit: never mind just typed in 35 Slough Business Park, Holker St Silverwater into google maps and now know where it is.... I think...

"GTR_77", you're in if you see this!

If entry is via Holker St, then I would assume it is the patch of concrete to the RIGHT of the picture, which is out of the picture/to the right of the patch of grass on the right of point B.

Corrections welcome. That's where I'm driving anyway. hahahah

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
