if my turbo hadn't farked and been replaced with non std, would love to be std 2wd.

Std 2wd looks like good place to aim for, time to check the rules so I don't do anything that bumps me up.

Ok cool... how far are you off working out the remaining calendar? Few things are popping up for August and September already and i'd hate to miss a round because the dates change...

SO Richo and I worked on this today,

and we have finalised out till the end of the year:

the last 3 rounds will be:

AROCA
Sandown
Sunday, August 11
WRX
Calder
Saturday 21st September
Tampered Motorsport
Winton
November 5th - Melbourne Cup Day
there will most likely be a non champ fun day same as last year in Dec.
and not to forget Nats is the end of Nov as well
and the championship is finally updated properly:
Cheers All
oh and my plan is, to be back out for the Nov round. back in Std RWD!

Hey guys,

Couple of questions, sorry if they're obvious but confirmation is betting than assuming!

I'm planning on entering the championship next year in my recently purchased S15 & would like to stay in the standard RWD class for my first year.

In regards to "non OEM aero", I have an Origin roof lip & D-Max ducktail boot lip to go on the car (purely for aesthetics) - will I still be in standard class with those?

It's not proper aero (ie. canards, diffusers, GT wings) but at the same time it's not OEM, so just a little confused on that one!

Also, it's not listed, but is an upgraded AFM (Z32) okay too?

will be running standard injectors & upgraded fuel pump.

thanks lads, thought it be best to get confirmation on a few things before i start modding the car :)

Lindsay.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
