When you arrive at your first meet, make sure you segregate yourself by race and religious belief, the Mexican will approach you, compliment your vehicle and ask you what you are running under there. At this point don’t be too concerned he isn’t gonna hit you for slips as he is going legit and trying to get on the NIRA circuit. So reply with some sporty banter and embrace him with a mafia spec hug – kiss on the cheek is probs too soon ONLY ON THIS OCCASION .

During the drag race, don’t hit the 100 shot of nos too early, you don’t want the welds to blow on the intake or the floor to fall out too early. You want the floor to drop just as you cross the finish line so if you happen to be racing a red RX7 he can’t activate his nos at this stage.

If police happen to raid the meet, make sure you pick up the owner of the red RX7 if you see him on the street, this is your way into SAU. You will be invited to a post meet party to play some GT2 and some coronas. Don’t bang his sister just yet.

Exchange snap chat names with her, screen shot nudes and post to SAU. As the grand wizard is an RX7 owner he won’t see nudes of his sister on SAU.

If you are going to take her out one night, make sure it’s a Cuban restaurant called cha cha cha.

At this point in time, I am hoping you are not a cop, as we run a great racket here at SAU which helps us pay for the shit under the bonnet of all these cars. I will let you in on a secret its cheap chinese DVD players worth about $20 a pop, hence why everything uses china turbos and knock off rota wheels as gee the money is good but not legit parts good.

This should give you a good feel of the place and enjoy your stay.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
