Directions for the peoples:

1. Travel down Pt Wakefield Rd, about 4km past Adelaide International raceway, then turn left at the Pt Gawler turnoff. Watch your speed as its easy to miss.

2. Travel down the sealed Rd about another 3km and turn right at this sign onto an unsealed Rd.

3. Travel about 200m's down the unsealed Rd and you will arrive at the Office.

Apparently "this sign" is just general signage and you shouldn't be able to miss it.

I'll be heading there after work and will probably be around for the 6pm kick off, if not then a little later, any other SAU-ers dead set going?

Nah i just went to check it out, i left straight from work so there i was standing in a dirt bowl in a shirt and slacks, to say i was the odd one out is an understatement. :angry:

Very much a "backyard operation" but i guess the price is low, the course looks pretty goo but you have to be careful about where you run off as the tyres can and did cause a bit of carnage to bodykits.

Kinda funny really, cause it wasn't me, but a blue ceffy was the first car out there, 2/3 of a lap down smashed his rear bar but didn't realise and kept going. Then his missus took it out, understeered it on the big sweeper, smashed off the front bar and got beached on some tyres. Had to get pulled out.

Oh and i should revise those directions, the distances are way off, i almost gave up, i thought I'd gone past it.

1. The turn-off is almost 10km past AIR, not 3km, you just need to look out for the "4WD blah blah hire course" sign (summin like that).

2. It's at least another 5km down the seeled road, and there's no sign, you just keep going until there's no sealed road left then turn on to the right-hand dirt road.

3. Those with low cars and hard susp, take it real easy on the road to the office, HEAVILY rutted and pot-holed.

Hey bud i went out to help out ryan (rap183) an his gf Bek, was a good night for practise. Cant wait to finish my 4 door an get back out there again.... Remember thrashin Pt Gawler in my S15 :)

Hey Oosh so that was you in the blue shirt out in the middle of the dust bowl hahaha Good work for Terry for hookin up the track agian.

Yeah mate that would have been me, i left there at about 6:45, i should have given you my mobile no. so you could call me. Sorry.

Well maybe next time I'll see you up there, I wont be going next week as I'm in Melb with work, but maybe the week after.

I went out last night and helped johnnie out directing cars and giving people a push it was a little wet

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
