Worried about how your car is handling? Want to know what you can do to improve her around corners and make her hug the road? We've organised a tech night with the guys at Fulcrum Stafford to show you what's going on in the world of suspension.

Event: SAU Tech Night - Suspension

This event will offer members the chance to get their cars up on a hoist and look and what's going on underneath. Minor issues such as slight wheel alignment tweaking and small adjustments can/will be made for free by the guys at Fulcrum but this is really an opportunity to take a good solid look under your car. Ideally looking at between 5-10 cars to make sure that everyone gets a shot. If you're going to the sprint day, you may want to make sure that you don't have suspension issues.

Location: Fulcrum Suspension, 46 Webster Road, Stafford

Date: Thursday, 2nd May 2013

Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm

Cost: Free!


Requirements: This is a member only event. To attend, you will need to let us know in advance and have your member card ready.

We ask that attendees obey all Road rules.
we don't want people racing up and down the street or general Hooning.

Remember you are representing the Club, so we need to be on our best behaviour.



See you all there!
Tony

Excellent Carl. See you there!

Not everyone's car can be up on the hoist and this will be due to time constraints really. But it will give you an idea as to what to look out for.

Yeah mate understand about not everyone can have there car up on the hoist. I don't mind if mine doesn't go up at all, was just saying.

Damn living in Nth Queensland :( Glad to see stuff like this happening but, Props to SAU QLD team, one day we might venture up your way. Its on my to do list I swear :P

Thanks mate. A bit of appreciation from time to time doesn't go astray. :)

All good mate. Was just making sure that everyone was one the same page :)

Personally, I'd prefer if people going to the sprints had their car up there. Would offer some peace knowing that everything is ok. :)

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
