Hi all, I've just upgraded the turbo on my EVO1 4G63 from the standard journal bearing setup to a Garrett GTX3076. This is my first ball bearing turbo and I have read that a restrictor is required in the oil feed line so as to not blow the seals. I'll be taking the oil feed from the standard location on the head, not from the oil filter housing (where the pressure is much greater) and I have been told that I won't need the restrictor if the oil feed is taken from here. Are you guys who are running Garrett BB turbos using a restrictor in the oil feed line? I'm just trying to get as much information/feedback as possible before I get around to finally starting this thing up. Cheers, Shayne

+1 for Beninca. Joe is very switched on and knows the Autronic ECU and software inside/out. I'm very happy with the tune he put into my SM4.

Wow! Thanks for posting the vids of my Lancer out there, good to get a different perspective of the day!

Had a great day, really enjoyed getting the car out and having a go with a really good bunch of people - thanks to the organisers, sponsors and volunteers who made the day possible, really appreciate your efforts.

Are there any restrictions on filling up from drums of fuel at Deca? This is my first outing since converting the car to E85 and not being able to duck out the to the BP for Ultimate out of the pump, so I just want to make sure I don't break some rule if I need to crack a drum open to fill up.

Can anybody please confirm if my entry form and payment have been received? Am still hoping I've managed to secure one of those 2 empty spots shown on the first post.

Forms just emailed through!

Payment just transferred and should be in the account tomorrow - forms will be emailed tonight once I get home and get my CAMS license and car club membership numbers. Really looking forward to this - I had a blast at the last one I participated in with you guys.

I've just gotten my car back up and running after a 2year 'rest period' and would really like to participate in this - put me down for a spot and I'll fill out the paperwork this evening when I have my car club membership details handy.

Sweet - thanks mate. Did you get yours online from the 'States, or an Australian based distributor?

Got a double up of posts.

Hi guys - am wanting to revive an old thread so as to enquire who has purchased one of the Racepak IQ3 logger dash units and if so, from where. I have only started exploring this avenue of modification so am hoping to get some good pointers as to where to start looking and who has provided good/bad experiences in the buying/selling process. I am wanting to purchase and install the IQ3 dash, Autronic SM4 interface and USM 4 channel interface unit for my 4G63 powered Lancer Coupe. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

How do I obtain copies of Sarah's and Rialto's photos? How much do they cost?

Rialto and Sarah - You have taken and posted some AWESOME photos. I've just been looking through both your online albums and really enjoyed looking at all the different shots. Thanks heaps for taking the pics and then posting them for us to enjoy.

Amen to that! I just could NOT for the life of me work it out!!

Had a great day. Thanks to the organisers and volunteers who made it happen. Great idea with the Lions van for lunch too. Very well run and organised day with a great bunch of people and cars. Will definitely be looking forward to the next one.
