Can anyone confirm if they were allowed to run yesterday with an open face helmet with just AS1698 but no :2006?

I saw some for sale at ALDI today for just $40, but remembered this thread saying 1698 was different to 1698:2006.

Willowbank's website says:

"Approved Open Face Helmet – AS 1698 min"

Can anyone confirm? The full face one got so hot yesterday.

All the boosts were escaping were they ants?

nah. Boost was there as the MPH supports that, but probably had some small boost leak.

it's about practice really.

A return trip to willowbank is in order Id say

why only 2?

Lost both my thermo fans, one spat a blade which broke the brackets and it smashed into the other one causing the power cables to beak. Only managed to to get it fixed after 4pm so I drove home while it was still light in case it stuffed out again, which it did. Plus I cooked my clutch :(

I don't think that was there when we fixed the coil overheat issue, I remember looking at the pretty pipes and I didn't see it and is quite obvious in the photo. I think it must have happened on the last 2 runs

yeah I agree

Spent yesterday arvie pulling the box out :(

Thinking it is something on the linkage instide that is broken, not the gears itself (it is a f**king new box ffs).

Yet to open the box up for a look. Still no engine out :P

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
