LOL! Thanks mate. Anyone know what the white stuff is straight after the hand brake turn? I have been chatting to Paul R33 but dont know whether it is rings or clutch. The clutch was completely out at that point with foot flat on the accelerator.

Well i think that topped off yet another Great DECA.. I Firstly have to say a Huge thanx to Chris for letting me run with his semi's on the rear they made a HUGE difference and i have a new found love for them...

Thanx to all the officials and of course those who again did a fantastic job of making the whole event successful.

Thanx to Ray for getting my car ready for the event.

And also thank to Jarrod, Mel, Min, Chris, Bec, Simon for helping me on the way home. Cheers Ryan and bec for waiting with me and HUGE THANX to jack for again coming and saving my ass :mellow:......

The running of these days are getting pretty much flawless, or at least the club is doing such a great job that no one would even know if things weren't running well. Even running a bit behind and slightly changing the schedule goes smoothly! Thanks to the usual suspects who helped organise and run the day (club and officials).

Have done every single one of these things now in the taxi (even if the colour did change hehe) and they've all been top fun. My only problem now is after having driven an evo around the pan, I think I'm ready to hang up the sideways antics (or bad attempts at sideways antics). Team Evo ftw!

Finally a big thanks to the President James for letting me run around in his Stock Cheater Evo. Straight out of the box they are an impressive machine and once you understand them damn easy to drive fast.

Have to agree completely there Snowy. Drove Fooey's in one of the morning sessions and while I know it was still quick, wasn't that impressed other than the steering feel and response of the car. But a later attempt in the afternoon "funtime" session using some suggested driving changes and well....f**k me!!! brake, turn in and punch it at the right time and it's almost like the moment you accelerated it latched onto a couple rails and just got on with business! (thanks heaps fooey)

As usual, don't need to see the results but bring on the videos! :mellow:

Wow mate, I was driving the #20 WRX (Dark Blue) and damn, that video footage blew me away! It didn't seem that fast when I was driving, but it gave me a really good idea of how the car was leaning/sliding around so I might be able to improve it a bit next time! Thank you.

Also, additional thanks to EVERYONE involved in the organisation - top entertainment during the day and just as good fun of the night :D Thank you all...

Now... where is my checkbook? I need one of them Evo thingamajigs

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
