It probably doesnt feel all that different. I need to fix my wastegate as well. Its leaked at idle since i put it back on in a big rush for Dutton. Im so lazy and too poor to pay a mechanic to do it

haha I'm right with you on the lazy thing, my manifold has been leaking for 18 months

Now it's completel;y cracked and my gate is held on with a piece of coathanger...

[ferni]

Yep you get 1 warning to fix the problem. So you do have a chance if you do get pinged the first time.

That makes it a little better, i didn't know you get a chance first - did Aaron get a chance?

I'm out, not going to PI tomorrow, don't wanna drive all the way out there to watch my tyres (and myself) melt from the 38 degree heat. No chance for PB's..

So looks like I'll have to wait till the WRX round next month.

[khunjeng]

gonna be wicked day...after my first go in the wet at Calder and some laps a few weeks later I will need some new semis and rims. Hopefully get them over the next few weeks - if the boss doesn't complain again.

I don't blame you. Too hot for the car, too hot for the tyres, too hot for us silly humans.

New AVC-R…Check!

Diff…Check!

Cams…Check!

New Upper Arms…Check!

Now I have 5 weeks to get it all installed and tuned. Along with 4 new RE55s. So much for the OS trip and saving. Getting to PI is going to cost 3k

Shoudl be fun...maybe this will be my first PI day where i actually complete a session

[phunky_monkey]

Hahaha Bris, you should be thankful mate, getting to PI is costing me a hell of a lot more than that

[Roy]

[NickR33]

Sisters wedding in Hamilton Island for a week booked and paid for... check

new turbo still sitting on the table at home with no $ to install it... check

Details!!!

What cams? What diff? You wanna sell me your old RE55's if they have a bit left in them?

[abcent]

the more I look into this the more I realise that with the F1 event and the GOR cruise plus a few other things (new 18's just purchased) I'm not too sure if i'll have the cash to do this round.....which is such a dissapointment as of all tracks I wanted to do, this is the main one.

*get calculator out again*

Kind of in the same boat, except mine would be a calender and getting time to do shit

hahaha it got me home with a gate still there, so big props to the coathanger!!

Roy just book the trip and pay for it... then lie, cheat and steal to get your car to PI!

That's how I'm doing it

[R32gts-t]

this thread is classic.

i've given up any hope of making it to PI as a driver...

In order to make it I would have to get my car from completely stock standard back to it's modified state,

the calculator will not permit whilst saving for a midyear os trip...

so instead I will be launching the official team, "let's get sunburnt again, spectating". g@y

I was with you Jack. I was going down on the Saturday as I missed Calder. But too bloody hot.

I'm now going to the MSCA Sandown day on the 4th of March to shake the cob webs out. I want everything lickety split for P.I. as I want a 1.50 (PB minus 2 seconds) :dream:

Details of the MSCA Day? I would love to do Sandown,.

Russ, they are Apexi cams and KAAZ 1.5 diff. Tyres are dead, hence i need $1600 for new ones

If i get a good time at Sandown i may park it for PI...i just want a good time at a track

Im giving the GOR cruise a miss... GP will be on best behaviour so shoudlnt cost too much. Need track days under my belt. My last track day was Sandown in Jun 05

I have never done an MSCA day before. I heard they werent run that well and that you may only get 3 or so sessions. Is this still the case 3 years later?

The last one I did at P.I. was pretty good, also at $160 was pretty good value.

Lots of interesting, but slow cars to make me feel better to!
