Yes

* waits for Eiji to respond * aka Stinkypoo

about 4 weeks ago I went and watched a Texi on Sutton Rd for an hour or so and then right next to it a Hill climb event was going on.

Both were awesome

Lol,

The MG Car Club of Canberra run four every year. I go to everyone that I can make. There is one coming up this month, which I'll start a thread about for your information.

I have been the SAU TEXI both here in Canberra and in Sydney. The local one is great because it's local, unfortunately they can no longer use the maneuvering area. The Sydney one is great because it's so big and not as tight on restrictions. Reece sets up a well flowing course but I wouldn't recommend getting to serious about it, even if it is a competition.

It would be great if we could run something like this in Canberra but there are too many restrictions. This is something we all need to voice to our local government people in a constructive way.

Oh really? What do they use then, just the skid pan?

That was our problem too, and hence why we only used the back track at the last one. Which made it a hillclimb then, not a khana lol

I think last time SAU used the "Highway" circuit type thing at the back and the wet skidpan.

MGCCC can get the maneuvering area because of some connections they have to the facility. They also are not allowed to run on certain parts of the pad.

Sydney isn't far away. I have been and will probably go again, but not as much as I previously did. I'm getting old and work interferes with fun.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
