Weekend was great. Team Wang at it's best. Saturday night will be remembered for a while. A few new inductee's to the club as well - including a star performance from our new WRX Wang member. Fair skills with the skids I must say.

As for the racing part of the weekend, that was pretty good too. For those that lasted the whole day there was plenty of track time and I think everyone enjoyed the track as it is somewhere you can have a bit of fun at rather than being half scared to death.

I think the new guys - Jarrod, Dave and Tom all enjoyed themselves as well. Just disappointed for Archie as he was really giving it a go out there for just his 2nd track day.

But overall a very enjoyable weekend. Thanks to all that made it so.

:cheers:

I did i think 5 hot laps, 7 in total...:cheers: But at least my car didnt have to get towed off, and i was able to drive it back to Melb.

Biggest effort award goes to Achie and Scotsman, the times were shaping up really good. Shame about pads and tyres on Snowflakes car:(

...and Dave, were you taking happy snaps on the day?

What a day, absolutely awesome weather, plenty of track time and some seriously quick times too.

For me, I'll take my 1.41 - like Archie, was my second track day so I'm pretty happy with it :cheers:

Looking forward to round 4 provided work doesn't intervene.

Good to see Team Wang rip it up on and off the track :cheers:

work hard, play hard!

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
