How did Jenkie go over the weekend? Does anyone know what engine Mark is using now?

I was in a rush to get back so did not stay long to catch up with him.

Was hoping to see more of the WR1000 but hopefully it will be sorted out soon. I was up on the mount where it leaked coolant. All white smoke and only spat a bit of coolant on the track. Definitely not piston. The rumour did scared a lot of competitors and they all slowed down after the crest :(....and then I had to leave. Would be nice to see the Gallardo do a flat out lap too.

According to the Supp rules and regs, the results will be up on the Mt. Alma website this Friday evening.

Jenkies made it into the top 6 but didn't quite qualify for the top 3, so he more than likely finished 4th, 5th or 6th outright.

Have to admit, it was an awesome sight watching the Widebody R32 just hook up off the start line and just launch off into the distance! I think he hit the 200m speed trap at 169km/h (only 2-3km/h behind Viagra). My Evo 6 struggled to hit 140 lol

Edit: Provisional Results are now on the Mt. Alma Website!

Definitely provisionary, missing a few people. Good to know made it in the top 17 time-wise in the old-fella's road-registered 32 :P

Just need the final results now :)

Good work Mark and Luke! And all those that entered!

is that the one that looks like it has flames on the bonnet? maybe not and i was just cooked from standing in the sun all day.

That 32 was a MONSTER!! i was sitting with the missus and a couple of mates at the last little left hander near the finish line, a lot of blokes got pretty sketchy through there when they were pushin!

i couldnt get over the maclaren though :O

...I'm not one for flames...but yes, that's my Old-Fella's GTR (I've tried convincing him to change to a carbon-fiber bonnet) - so you weren't totally cooked by the sun, but if it helps makes two of us!

But you won't hear me complain, as compared to my 32 gtst the Old-fella's leaves mines for dead :P Feel for those 2WD's around some of those corners!

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      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

      S15 Spec R

      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!
