Media Statement

Rally Australia Protest Rally

Released Wednesday the 30th March 2005

Russell Franklin Motorsport Owner Russell Franklin today confirmed that

there would be another Save Rally Australia Protest March this time

being on State Parliament. The government are elected by the people of

this state and as such should work for the benefit of this State not

other States. If this Government thinks for one moment that the

Thousands of people who have volunteered there time and $$$ to make this

event the success it is today are going to stand back and let the Rally

simply be given away on a gold platted platter they are so wrong. Mr

Franklin said

I would challenge the Minister for Tourism to a Public Debate on the

benefits to the Community that Rally Australia provides. There are the

Hundreds of jobs that are created as a result of the event, the huge

impact on Businesses in the small Country Towns that the event visits,

the estimated 66 million potential Tourists that watch the event on TV

and not to mention the Large numbers of people that visit from both

Interstate and Overseas.

The Government has to change its mind and admit that this decision is a

big mistake. If it doesn't there is every possibility that this Land

mark event will be lost forever and could end up leaving Australia's

Shores. My number one priority is ensuring that the event stays in Perth

and if that can't be achieved then to ensure it stays in Australia.

We may have had a small turnout at our Rally last week but at a time

when people have to work it is going to be difficult. This is why we

will march at night. I anticipate that we will get 500 to 1000 people

attending this rally.

The Rally will take place on Tuesday the 5th of April 2005 at 6.00pm. We

will march from Forest Place along William Street into Hay Street then

up to the Steps of Parliament House where it is hoped that the Minister

for Tourism or Premier will address us. All Police and City of Perth

Approvals have been obtained. We ask that people bring a banner and a

loud voice. We will depart Forest Place at 6.15pm.

ONLY DIRECT ACTION WILL SAVE TELSTRA RALLY AUSTRALIA

    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu? 
    • Yeah thats the plan now. 🤞
    • Have a chat with the tuner, you'd want to drive the car straight there.
    • My mechanic installed all the parts and then got it tuned which i think is around the corner from him
