This Sunday 18th of March, 5th Gear motorsports and Federal Tyres are having a combined event at the Sutton Driver training centre - Sutton Road NSW.

There will be a FREE bbq for all, cars on display, give aways, the Formula 1 racing on the big screen and an afternoon "Skid and Drift" session on the skid pan open to everyone for only $25 per session!

Come along and have a snag and watch some F1 racing or drifting and a chat to us about Federal tyres and 5th Gear's motorsports offers.

All are welcome - Spectators included! :laugh::)

this sounds fun. what time?

Its an all day event, we'll be there from about 9am until 5pm and the BBQ will probably be from about 11am until 1-2pm.

The afternoon Skid and drift sessions will start from 1pm.

There will also be a Motorkhana event held by the MG club adjacent to the skid pan for most of the day.

So you shouldnt be short of things to do! :w00t:

We'll be going until about 5pm depending on how many people are around, we may go for a bit longer.

Thats a good way to put it.

It is a great way to have fun but also to learn something about your car and how it reacts in slippery situations.

The weather is apparently going to be warm and sunny so do bring sunscreen and a hat so you can enjoy the day without getting to roasted.

I hope to see as many of you there as possible. :happy:

Who saw the Suzuki Swift hooning around and having to constantly wait for the black Monaro to get its 5h1t together? I was in the swift :D Aching arm from all the handbraking now hahaha but man that thing was fun, just enough power and lightweight to bring it around after a quick flick.

As my gf says (it's her car): "Go Swifty!"

It was a good fun day and I am really keen for the next one in 2 weeks! hopefully we will get some good footage then.

It was good to see a variety of people and cars there. A lot of 1st timers having a good time.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By Duncan · Posted

      It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      For a daily just run Akebono ceramic pads. That's what they're optimized for. Obviously don't try to run it on track or anything like that.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
