Shiv you cat....get the dvd crankin'

I do understand some interesting torture techniques that can...well.......you know the rest :) Just play it somewhere public. You'll be safe until we get you police protection.

Has anyone got the link to the WRX Club, i would really want to get the entry form for the Twilight sesion at Calder Park

Yes! me too Al, I'm keen to enter that one... I just put up a thread asking about it in the events section, but it disappeared?!!

The WRX club site is here - www.wrx.com.au but I couldnt find any info about a twilight club sprint in Jan...

I had a quick chat as I was leaving. I don't think he knew too much about the car but it was a silver R31 2 door which he said had been dressed up to look like a GTS-R. Was a damn tough looking car. Silver and had the plates "SEVNTH". Had an aftermarket turbo and other enine work. Very neat looking car. Was very quick too but didn't get any pics sorry.

Anyways I forgot to tell Al that you could have that disc (its not the finished item). Either way pm me and you'll get a copy of it.

btw Its hard keeping all you girls happy with these videos

haha

where were u at the last meeting num nuts! u were going to bring a few copies of the Sandown DVD

hey guys,thats me in the silver volvo, sorry if i pi$$ed any of you guys off, all those skylines were very intimidateing! i wish the sweadish brick had power like that!i agree with some of the comments about other drivers, alot of people were going full noise and not takeing into acount of people around them. its a wonder these 'fundays' even exsist with todays 'legalites'.i had a great time non the less 90% of the people were very nice.a few people in holdens could't handel the fact that a volvo just went pass them so they were out to be a$$holes. i strongly recomend good tyres to have maximum fun as it makes alot differnce especialy if you are a newbe as they makeup for the mistake's.hopefuly ill be there next time, be sure to come and say hi.

BTW, what were some of the top speeds you guys were getting on the straights?

most i got was 165klm/h

michael. :D

the volvo- re-55 tyres,av-gas,kevlar pads,head ported/polished,larger throttle body,stratos racing seats,3.95:1LSD,custom cam,magnacore ignigtion,20degree advance timing,4spd close ratio hollenger gearbox with a 'real' short shift kit ;)

i saw 200klms...i think....adz might have been paying more attention than i was of the speed .....That crazy german in the supra saw 210 or something like that....hey volvo dude....you had an awful close mishap through the s there that bust's up the main straight!

Hi Mike,

My friend and I were suprised by number of volvos etc.

>> BTW, what were some of the top speeds you guys were getting on the straights?

>>most i got was 165klm/h

I think the best i got was around the same. Was driving an Auto, and didnt have a long enough run to build speed. Guess i lost too much speed through corners. I was aiming for cornering and not speed, so only boosted hard towards the end of the laps.

>> michael. :D

How the hell did you afford a hollenger? my friend works for them, and gear box are like 16 grand.

ylwgtr2>>> yeah that was pretty bloody skcetchy through there!!! i was seeing just how far i 'could' brake.... it turns out to stop from 150 you need at least 50m :P .go figure! it was volvo vs tire barrier, so i closed my eyes and prayed and some how i came out on the other side!

heartbrkr>>> i could't beleve that there were other volvos there!i thought i was going to be the only one, they were pushing hard to but they were just stock. the gearbox was built by a guy who owned the car before me. he had brought just the close ratio gearset and put them in himself. un-syncromeshed so it grinds if you dont double the clutch at hi rpm. he had brought the set awhile ago, and i think he new someone there, still cost him a few grand!

michael. :D

next time i will have the new exhaust and a few other treats.

    • And yet....OEMs put both guages and lights into cars, fed by separate primary elements, for a reason. Oil pressure sensors fail at a significantly higher rate than oil pressure switches. When the HMI has 2 outputs, each with its own separate input, the redundancy makes it far more likely that the operator will notice a problem - particularly if one of those systems has a fault. I'll keep my oil pressure switch feeding the dash light, thanks.
    • So after like 4 hours yesterday and quite a bit of troubleshooting. Come to find out there is a screw on the back of the serial 9 shifter that was screwed in too far from the factory and the manufacturer doesn’t say anything about it but it was stopping all the back gears because it was hitting that. I pulled the shifter out and went through the gears by hand and a vise grip (dont judge me, it was on a lift) and figured out that it wasn’t the trans. So we narrowed it down to the shifter

    • Oh you'll be surprised how much the motor breathes when it sees nearly 2 bar of boost. That will definitely pop, but for now, more than happy with 99.99% of the crank case fumes and engine shit going back into the intake.
    • You'll likely find, you never really get pressure to pop that valve.  If you are getting "pressure" it's going out the unrestricted hole before it hangs around to build up and pop the rubber flap. IE, it's headed for the intake pipe. In reality, if we did it right, your "vent" would actually go to a PCB valve at the inlet, and you'd still have the two the intake pipe too. When in vacuum, motor sucks it in, when on boost, PCB shut, and you will be getting enough air flow past (if they've put the catchcan pipe on the inlet in a good spot, at the right angle) which will create suction. Current setup in reality, you're just forcing it to the intake pipe.
