lol you don't have to bump em. if you look up the top of the VIC section you'll see "SAU VIC Documents". All the stuff we publish are stored in there.

A great read, makes we wish i was back in Vic more than anything else, but I think you should assign an editor / proof reader (a fresh pair of eyes, someone who hasn't been involved in it's production in anyway) as a a fair few simple errors slipped through.

I know I'm being pedantic but it takes a bit of the gloss off what it is otherwise a very slick publication. Regardless, well done. :(

Ooosh: Was built in Illustrator on an old G4 tower... so the spell checker was both crap and slow.

Plus - being always a 'last minute' thing, the 'ol editorial step usually gets left out.

However, I've just upgraded to a new Powerbook and am in the process of converting the newsletter template to InDesign - which should make things a bit easier to check/edit.

That's wierd I always thought you'd use indesign for layout.

Hey BTW, is there any way we can get a digital version of the speed mag article on SAU VIC?

I R not mac friendly :unsure: I use indesign on a P4 though used to use quark on a mac when I was doing layout work for mags, but that was because I was using the tools I was given, not out of choice.

That's sweet, as i said it's still bloody good, I just realised this is an older one anyways. Issue #4 didn't have any glaringly obvious stuff jump out at me, and that's all that matters, not writing Shakespeare here I know. :unsure:

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
