Hey guys,

I know this should be in events but at the moment its not an event, yet. I am doing some driver training on the 12th and 19th of october and this is just to see if anyone else is interested cause the more lines the better and if there is a few we might have some leverage to get a deal to get some $ off. i am doing the luff driver training courses at oran park. the day of the 12th is the stage 1 course and the 19th is the stage 3 course with cams observe so that i can get my cams licence. the cost of the 2 days is $630. You have to have completed stage one to do stage 2 or 3. If anyone wants more info go to http://www.ianluff.com.au/index.php?option...id=23&Itemid=63

I know people have a lot of different opinions on who to go to for driver training and which course is better but i have had many friends go through this course and all agree youll learn alot and have loads of fun while doing it...

Any takers??????

Top idea, this is great training and its a shame so many people talk so much but don't go along to something like this.

I guess from your post you are already booked in, SAU is running a CAMS training day thru Aaron McGill on 22 November which would be another idea. I've done CAMs courses with both Luff and Findlay (but not McGill personally) and I would say that the Findlay one is the one to try if you really want to be challenged and learn :)

Unfortunately i'll be away for the Level 1 otherwise I would definately come. I've done the finlay one - however really want to do a level 2/3 advanced course.

Any recommendations? I'm pretty sure finlay's don't do an "advanced" one.. only the cams and normal..

Want to do it before it heats up as well..

Hey mate,

there is plenty of other level one days between now and the 19th, Im just booked into the 12th because that was convenient for me, try and get a friend to do one of the earlier ones with you then we can all hook up for the stage 3.

sanger - I may see you on the 19th for the stage three course if I can't get in for next wednesday's one

Brush that one come to the one on the 19th...... you know you want to. :)

hey yeh id be interested.. perants are paying atleast half :D  hopfuly ill be there too

yeah same. my old man was going to get me golf lessons so i suggested that this might be a smarter option and he agreed. you dont hear of many people getting killed by someone slicing a golf ball so i think the driving lessons are a better bet.

Hi All,

As a licenced trainer and assessor, I can give you the good oil !

Peter Finlay's driver training days are the better of all of the packages going at this time.

He may be a cranky style of a bloke at times , but he can teach you more in one day than all of the others.

Good Luck with it.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • 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.
