what a day.... copngrats to the Full Lock guys for putting on a top class event. Thanks to all that made it from interstate to compete, and a very special thanks to the Japanese D1 drivers that came out to put on one of the best drift shows i think i have ever seen. Hopefully with a bit of luck the D1 drivers will go back to Japan and talk the event up and bring out a few more drivers and maybe their cars for the next event :):) Did i hear someone saying they wanna run an Aussie round of the D1 Grand Prix :):D:D:D:D:D:D

Yep, awesome day. I didn't know you were out there duncan + Kel - sorry I missed you guys. I am soo p1ssed off though. On the way home my CF card just dies :) I had heaps of great photos + video and a photo of me with one of the Japanese drivers. Does anyone know of a place that can repair and maybe recover the photos off this thing? Just as bad as the photo loss is the fact that now I don't have a 256mb card anymore, when i put it in the camera it just says "card error" and I can't even take any new pics on it.

Sorry we missed you too! Try Fletchers Photographics, Pitt St in the city, for the CF card - when we got our camera from them a couple of months ago they mentioned they do photo recovery. Goodl luck!!!!

Thanks Kel. Apart from missing you guys, I also didn't bring any beer :) No one mentioned that drift nats was BYO! I saw three guys carrying in a BIN full of VB, they didn't even offer me one :)

On that note, Duncan, you didn't address my SAU newsletter by hand did you? Beer Baron indeed. I like it, now how do I change my nick?

hehe.

Did every one see the guy who ventured onto the track to claim the bar that was torn of the cefiro?

I sure did. I also saw him get booted from the event about 3 minutes later. Bet he was really pleased with that effort...

Richard

haha Kel did add a personal touch to some of the newsletters lol

we did see you there richard but were in the queue for health food and didn't want to miss out :D

next time the club needs a stand and banner

Fo' shizzle. Also, whover came up with the idea of battering, then deep frying hotdogs is a bloody smart guy. Must have been Australian. :D

I was there driving the purple/black Hyperdrive Motorsport Sil80.

Unfortunately the Jap that borrowed it for the D1 show proved just how crap I was in it.

To jump in a strange car and within 3/4 of a lap be doing what he did shows just how much we all have to learn grasshopper... :(

I am hoping that Ben Ellis lets me have a copy of the incar so I can see how he did it...

Cheers

Ken.

PS At least one of our team won the factory class :rofl::rofl: so congrats to Mike. :(:D

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • 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.
