Faxed the form on Wednesday afternoon. The fax at work has been playing up so let me know if it didn't come through.

I deposit the money today. If you want a copy of the deposit slip let me know and i'll scan it and send it.

Should be a great weekend. Is anyone doing the Maserati day as well?

Might enter Deca on Saturday, and race winton on Sunday...

Anybody else attending the deca day going to race on Sunday?? Snowy?? Chris?? Anybody????

Don't know about show off, Haven't done track work before and in a new car after being used to driving Rex's.... hmmm, could be interesting LOL. Looking forward to it though!! Maybe I can learn from you Snowy, if there is a video camera around I'll try that pose you did on that DVD! :jump:

B :evil:

I think Crazy Tony is doing both mate. And I'm pretty sure Marcus is doing Winton - but he's not doing DECA at this stage.

Personally I'm booked for 3 days at Winton in July so I'm giving the Maserati Day a miss. Plus is so expensive to run with those guys IMO. Their price is a bit rich for Winton.

I've paid up, but yet to fax the forms etc.

Originally went to common wealth for some silly reason trying to direct deposit, but the lady said it wasnt theirs, and would take a week to process. (week? must be worse case, figured overnight).

So walked up to westpak, and filled in the forms. Then she said i couldnt put DEC-name; they can only do numbers, so put me membership numbers. whats up with that? i always tell people at work to put their invoice number on deposit slips. grr.

So anyway, just got sort out if im coming down friday night.

Jarrod I got yours.

Anthony duely noted.

Ryan - good stuff. We need to get your driving skills increased so you can give Ant a run at the track days. You got the closest anyone had go so far this year at Sandown!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
