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

I can assure you, from experience (at QR yesterday), plummetting down the straight and feeling your brakes not gripping the rotors is not a fun feeling.

Nah the brakes worked but the pedal was sinking to the floor when hot. couple of cool down laps & they were sweet again.

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.

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

      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.
