Troy your 32 was born to drift, they love it. I think drag is for people who can't drive (personal opinion) I can't drift very well but its heaps of fun. We should try and orgainise a day. Also nice shot of my car spinning it up over the top of the hill. Will anybody who took photos be at the meeting on tuesday beacause I don't have many pics of my car and I wouldn't mind some. Also troy do your spacers for your calipers have the holes opposite the old ones or are they offset?

Opposite or offset...?

Dont really get the question. The holes have the same centres, same bolting face as the std bolt holes, only they are 26mm further out. By same bolting face i mean the caliper is at the same offset relative to the rotor as std.

Meh, Drag racing is not as bad Gonorrhea, its more like herpes...it can be treated but there still doesnt seem to be any cure for those that love it:)

Hey guys, great day at the track..

I was talking to a guy from the WRX club today and he told me they compile a video each year of stuff from their track days, he asked if anyone has video footage they could contribute (especially things like andrew's flames which we all love).

Let me know via PM / this thread. I will post his email address as soon as i find where i bloody wrote it down!

I'm encouraging the old man to come down to the club meet. I may not be there. I'm sure I can find him a minder for the night :D

I've also given him the heads up about Winton pics too.

The next drift day, I may see if I can organise a photographers pass or something, and if the old man can't get out there, I'll get trigger happy instead.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
