Chubbs, if you want to find out what Huntley is like, come down next weekend, I'm sure Jas and I can show you where it is, and up/down it.

As Neil mentioned, it's a public road, (that is extremely rare to EVER pass another car on the hill).

If you thrash it, the people at the top and bottom will get annoyed and call the cops, if you just keep driving it to be able to site the track, they won't care.

PS: We have some awesome pubs down here... :P

No way buddy,,,mountain straight is way more challenging tiger,,, just that 1st right-hander at speed is sphincter gripping stuff,,,the rest of it is fanbloodytastic.

Huntley is totally different,,,like every hillclimb they are all unique.

Have I told you lately Jase you are a beautiful hunk of manhood.

Cheers

Neil.

I get tight in the pants every time you mention my name

Not a bad effort for my first time there.

a 33.96 and 1st in type 1 & 2 1601cc-2000cc

unfortunately only got 3 runs as Rex in a blue PRB clubman type vehicle hit a rail and had to be airlifted.

wish him all the best for a speedy recovery

Hi Chris

It was good to catch up with you at Huntley yesterday, sorry we could not spend more time with you but our Skyline mates had shade and it was just too hot out in the sun.

Can't do much better than 1st Chris, well done.

Mazman were you running? how did you go? Maybe you need more tyre, not less boost ;)

Also best wishes to the competitor who was airlifted, no doubt hillclimbs can be dangerous, but I guess that is what makes them challenging.

It was good to meet you Mazman and share some shade so we did not get sunburnt like Chris.

Your Supra was very well presented and made an unreal sound when it came on boost but like you say 24 pound is serious boost and a lot of power to try and put down through two wheels.

Yep, had a go.

Did a 28.7sec for my first time out there(but with lots of backing off and traction issue's lol, so should be prepared better next time).

I have 285's v70's on there but they are hard compound as i got them cheap.

I tried doing a decent burnout to warm them up but got a warning from the officials lol,

I'll try again next time with softer compounds and hopefully get more time on the track to get use to it (not many goe's due to the accident)

      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!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
