just checked the wakefield website (like i always do daily) and there is an open track day, here are the dates.

sat 25th sep

sat 9th october

i will definetely be there, + will give some time for anyone/everyone to sort out their rides by then. so if anyone interested in coming up by all means do it'll be a perfect time to take your ride to the limit without having to worry bout the boys in blue as well as get your driving skills up to scratch.

I was going to head down, but a driveshaft broke (the bolts sheared out of the uni-joint style thing) on the front of the car so its out of action at the moment. If I can get it repaired and camshafts/cam gears/sump baffles done by then ill be down there.

Theres also another open day on October 9th (saturday again)

AAAArrrrgh!Only Whytry would understand how bad I wanted to be there!Same deal:damned work got in the way.And the next day on the 9th will be no different.Bloody Saturdays:working in retail means a one day weekend!

Still,maybe it's a good thing:as I play "hunter/gatherer" for parts,I am getting more knowledge that makes me think I really should add a few bits before my next trackday...

Still;I hate not getting "out there" even for some "gentle" laps....

    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
