Jack, one of my mates pulled out - and he knows the pres quite well... we're hoping that we can swap him for Troy as a favour...

Will keep you posted if we can get any more places

Hey Jack, looks like a full field for Sunday - 95 cars.

We were lucky with a mate of mine pulling out so Troy could beg/steal/borrow a place...

Sorry couldn't help you out, but if you're around the area pop down and say hi!

:P

Oh yeah and Troy you better bust out a 1:25!

LOL...well im not going to PI on Saturday just so i can get a minute to check over the car. There isnt a Nissan Dealer in Melb with a new master cylinder, only seal kits.

So just need to change gearbox and diff fluids on Saturday. New windscreen tomorrow, hopefully boost controller sorted on Friday night, and machine rotors on Friday, perhaps even reco the master cylinder if i can convince Race brakes thats the problem:)

As for 1:25s ill be driving the wheels off the car trying, it will be piss funny if i get there. More realistic i think is 1:27s though as i have never been there.

But 1:25s or 1:35s ill be laughing my a55 off and most likely giggling myself stupid as i knock out laps on what im excpecting to be the best track in the country:thumbsup:

I'll be down to cheer everyone on.

Jack - if you prefer I can just bring your wheels on Sunday instead of doing it on Sat?

Also Roy - if you like I can come with you in the morning passenger session and try and give you some pointers on the track. There are a few "landmarks" that can help you improve your times around here.

That would be tops if you could mate...im a real slow learner and have to really build confidence slowly, if you can help me out with lines, gears and braking points then thats saving 10laps of farking it all up before i start to get it right:(

Beers Sunday night will be on me:thumbsup:

Biggest thanks possible to Marcus and Steve for getting my foot in the door for this one. The wet sessions were good fun, especially as it started to dry out...so much more confident in the afternoon in the damp/drying conditions...i was over driving the car something chronic but it was so much FUN!!!:D

All in all the best day at the track i can ever remember , i love Sandown, it was everything i hoped....i couldnt shut up all day ;)

A good day, I missed the rain part as I had to be elsewhere but the silver R32 GTR sounded like a JET down the main straight - awesome!

Also a very neat burgandy R33 with Holotype R rims and P plates. You had two mates standing with you just as you lined up for the track entry :P

Overall some very neat cars present.

That must have been Roy's 32GTSt... wasn't any silver 32Rs there or was I suffering heat stroke?

    • Hi mate, I have never had an issue with the odometer in mine (450,000+ klm now) and can't remember another post about it. Still, your description of the likely cause sounds spot on, so an electrics repair is probably the next stop.
    • Cheers. I more want it quieter with the varex open. I only have the varex closed when i start up and roll out the driveway to keep everyone happy on days i take the car to work at 5 AM or come home late. So just a mod muffler will do tge trick? Something like that would require a retune hey?
    • I was going to say generally speaking if it's like 80k+ miles since the valve cover has been replaced you don't even attempt to just replace the gasket. The valve cover itself will likely be warped and it will continue to leak after replacement, just not as severely. The valve cover PCV diaphragm can also tear and create a major vacuum leak. Welcome to BMW life. My friend's 2006 330i was t-boned and totaled out so he also just got a 335i so I can add to this thread now.
    • Hi all, For my '98 260rs... The odometer LCD occasionally turns blank or gives me only the bottom half or top half of the numbers. It's intermittent, which leaves me to believe it's a dead solder or loose wire somewhere. The odometer itself works. When the screen comes back, kms have been added to the trip and overall meters. A couple questions: Is this a known issue with the Stagea? I didn't see it pop up in my quick search, but that could be my searching skills. How accessible is the LCD screen in the cluster? I'm hoping it's a remove and replace type situation versus cracking open the whole housing. I'm hoping you all can narrow some of my initial troubleshooting. Any experience or opinions would be helpful.  
    • Yeah. Seeing the finish line must be quite the motivation. Good on you for sticking with it. Understood about the model choice. Also, totally get the challenge with sourcing parts. Based on your handle, I'm just a few hours south of you. All the little things I've bought so far come with $30 shipping, even if it's just stickers for the boot!
