The White team began the final day in first place and held on to win six minutes clear of Greg Garwood and John Allen in a turbo Porsche 911.

Jim Richards and Barry Oliver in a Porsche GT3 CS were another 13 minutes further back in third place, well ahead of the rest of the field who were more than nine hours behind the winners.

that's six seconds ahead of 2nd place, 39 seconds ahead of Richards, and 9 minutes back to the rest of the field. Nine hours! NFI!

great to see the Whites finally get the win, but local knowledge is a big factor there.

Well according to this site, Richards came first???:

slicks on the front for the last day

ice and snow on the road

buggered clutch 2 nd day

replaced over night

yeah the conditions up at Arrowsmith were amazing!

I'm surprised you got through a set of fronts tho, were'nt you running the dunlops? or not in the hard compound?

And I bet the clutch was fun, did you find a local hoist to help out? working in the silverdome was a PITA

At Burnie they were onthe front we swaped them to the back to avoid the canvas

on the last day

We missed doing Arrowsmith fast as we stopped at Rooklyn big crash about 5 klms in to the stage

The service crew we shared with Coads and three others had truck with a ramp that you could work under

started at 10.30 finished about 3.00 had an old clutch, down past the rivets,that we threw in It lasted O K

Tyres! Had a gamble on yokohama AO48s M compound Too many dry day

lost the gamble

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
