  1. The ex gate sounded sex, but it is LOUD! Alfa day on the 12th of June http://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/images/2011/comp/20110612_entryform_sandown_sprint_v1.doc These can sell out pretty quick, as you get 6+ sessions generally. I wasn't a fan of FFCC 15min sessions, it is not a good split. 8-10 is plenty, come back into the pits and change pressures etc. The end result is 1-2 more sessions for the day.
  2. You will need to get under it for sure would love to see a video if done all from the top. I've had the turbz off 5-6 times now, all up on jack stands.I find it easier if you take the turbo out with the dump attached. That way you don't snap the studs/bolts on the dump. Take all the intake piping off the car, unbolt the power steering res so you can move it round, unbolt the cat from the front pipe. Then under the car take the oil return line off and cover the barb on the engine so you dont get shit in there. Take both water lines off. Take the oil feed off. Take the O2 sensor out. Lift the turbo out with the dump attached. The water banjos are large 22 or 24mm. So make sure you have a spanner that large. You will need new crush washers for the oil and water lines, your local auto store should have those. You will also need new manifold to turbo and turbo to dump gaskets. Spray the shit out of the bolts with WD40 and let it sit before you attack them. If they loosen then get tight again, make sure you tighten 1/4 of a turn then try and loosen again. Keep doing that till it is off. Else you may snap it. Getting is out is not that hard, getting the water banjos back on is a royal PITA.

  4. Ya the weather can't get helped Good to see everyone. See those at Winton next weekend then DECA and WRX Sandown after that. The supra was sporting a sequential gearbox and was seriously moving, also a V8 supercar (spec'd) that got pinged for noise after 2 laps. We kept it on the black stuff, but one of the GM boys didn't and the armco at turn 3-4 were rearrange a little.
  5. make sure it has a clutch!
  6. In the 33 Dave and I have the opposite (ABS and non ABS). The pedal when cold is very very high, so high that heal tow is very hard. Once warm it is still high but not overly so. This maybe to do with the pad as well. As for bias, there is more to the front for sure. Not enough to even think about changing the rear caliper though. You still get the rears squirming around under hard load anyway.
  7. Get your sombreros on this people!

  16. you can do that with racechrono if you have an odb car.
  17. Yep I'm down for officialling
  18. ^ this
  19. NA 34's are 5 stud? If so NA 34 Manual. How long do you have left on your P's?? As long as you don't put it into a pole it will hold re-sale ok for 18 months.
  20. I'm going to ring the guy listed on the sup regs today and see what the go is. As yes their website is not operating today for some reason. Russ you don't need the phone for splits, as the qstarz software will allow you to create those once you are back at home. The advantage of the phone is that on the day you can view the splits, overall times and start to experiment with different lines and see the effect in different splits. What i've seen a bit on youtube as well, the guys use a moblie phone holder and suction cup the phone to the windscreen, because as you go around the phone updates the screen in real-time like a game and flashes red for slower sectors and green for faster as you go. I found that a bit too racey though and I was constantly chasing time. So it sits out of site now.
  21. Tampered on the 15th Marty?
  22. Selling your kidney's I see.
