what date is the baskerville hill climb? its not that cove hill route is it..?

mite grab some new tires and come along.

Only thing is, looking into my crystal ball, just now, its looky cloudy.... wait.. RAIN lol

whats the requirements for the tas hill climb series?

ie, licences etc and car requiremnets. Usual stuff like tow hook marking, battery marker? and or kill switch?

Just wanna know whats involved before I lay down coin on tires etc

good helmet, cams 2s license (which goes hand in hand with a CAMS approved club) fire extinguisher , battery sticker thats about it lol they usually recommend secondary bonnet restraint but at CV i was just using normal latch ones. if i dont run basky HC (which is looking like im not atm with the cars issues ) you can borrow my helmet jack :blush:

Blue 150mm sided triangle to mark battery location

Metal Valve caps

No fluid leaks

Fire Extinguisher with Metal Bracket

Helmet that meets AS1698-74

Good seatbelts (Not UV damaged or frayed)

Good throttle return spring/mechanism

Treaded tryes. ie: if they bald to start with then no run.

I could go on but they are the basics.

and yes I did do all the relevant training and assessment's to be a CAMS Scrutineer, just waiting on the Licence to arrive in the mail. :blush:

arh good well all thats a check. I'm a current member of HSCC just gotta work out the 2S or 2NS licence or whatever.

oh and re the helmet, thanks adam, but all sorted. cheers

Well, took three days in the end but...

Entire rear end has been removed, subframe bushes all pressed out and new Nolathane bushes fitted in their place and got back on the road Monday night.

I have to say that for such a small change, 4 bushes, its made such a difference to the way the car reacts and drives.

Bring on Basky I say, enry went in the mail today, scrutineering tomorrow.

just got my 33gtst back, made 270rwkw on a steady 15pound, do another 1000k's then re-tune at Advan in sydney and run 25pound. hoping to get over 330rwkw. and building a 3L t51r SPL motor hopefully going into a 34gtr. got the bottom end and turbo. YAY!

Sounds like your alot closer than me PJ, my engine hasn't even turned up yet so looks like i wont be making Basky at this stage :banana:

It has given me plenty of time to clean up a few other things with the car though but this weather is killing me with no garage to work in ;)

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
