well it looks like i will be able to make it. i've been able to move forward one of the interviews to this afternoon.

now i better get my sh1t ready tonight. if not, who wants to help bleed my brakes at the track? :(

BB,

Good news, I happy to push the brake pedal for you if needed.

All lit looks like we will have 5 on the day.

Myself, BB, AZZR32, yogi and Ralph (S15 Friend).

Lets have some fun, reguardless of the weather!

not long to go now. it looks like i may be able to get done the stuff i need to do tonight. If not, I may take you up on that offer paul :(

what time is scrutineering?

well i just finished what i wanted to do. I've bled the brakes. checked the oil etc and even installed my new castor rods. I don't have time for a wheel allignment so i just did it by eye/feel. I think the castor may not be quite even, but i did measure them pretty accurately. It feels heaps better. much sharper turn in, and the wheel self centres quite aggressively. steering is quite a bit heavier, but it's certainly bareable.

hmm, i had better get some sleep, i may be a little late fellas (9:30 ish) apparently there is no scrutineering though so it shouldn't be a problem. :angry:

see you boys at the track!

WTF I thought I heard Skylines today while I was at work but I couldn't figure out why. I work right near Eastern Creek and went outside and thought I heard a GTR, then I heard more of them and so I was wondering what was going on. Glad I'm not imagining things...

Im interested in the 29th - is anyone going to that one???

It will be my first time on the Eastern Creek track, from the map on the website it looks like a lot of fun

Can you apply for the licence at the track ?

I had a mate go today, in his Camaro... did you guys see it? :(

Anyway hopefully it was a good day, I heard that an Evo8 rolled it?

yeah i saw it. black one. looked nice as i went past it hehe :(

yeah a few cars were coming off. track was pretty green after the rain earlier in the week.

Except for Yogi's little incidednt in the first 5 min, it was a good day (Just goes to show crap tyres have no place on a race track). Accidents and hold ups did make for a long day and not enough drive time in my mind, but again thats the worst thing about these days, they take their time to clean the track after incidents and with that many race team there are bound to be a few spin off's.

No pics and no lap times but Im sure every had a great time. I think we got ralph hooked on drive days as well.

So I take it you guys had more fun than all other Sydneysiders on Saturday.

N1GTR,,,you can sign up on the day but it'd a little trickie. The ARDC and CAMs don't like us doing it and I can't guarantee you'll be allowed.Why not download the form from cams and send it in. Theres still time buddy.

I'm up for the 29th,EC diffs now in,gearbox is repaired and rear suspension has been freshened up.

Neil.

    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
    • Ah coolant overflow, previous discussions make way more sense now lol. 
    • ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.  
    • No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
