Hi,

Are there any Western Australia race events that a commoner such as myself can participate in? Where abouts can I go to have a run on a curcuit or such? What do I need to participate or race on the tracks?

I hear that over east you have CAMS licences? Anything like that here?

I'd really like to hear from some other WA members that have been or are going, meet some people would be good.

There are other things over in W.A. as well.

There is the sprint and autotest championships at AHG near the airport. http://www.dtec.com.au/mc-motorsport/car-clubs.htm

Other than Wanaroo there is also the other track down at Collie. http://www.motoringsouthwest.org.au/ I'll be down there for the sprint day on July 1st with a bunch of other blokes into motorsport.

You also have a stack of great hill climbs. Jacks Hill Climb, Mt Ommanny both of which make up part of the Speed Event Series that runs every year. http://www.speedeventseries.com/

And finally - here is a good resource list of what is coming up. http://www.driveline.net.au/events.php :thumbsup:

Given you are in Esperence the closest/easiest events will probably be in Albany.

On the long weekend just gone (Foundation day) there was the Mt Clarence Hiil Climb & the Albany wind farm hillclimb. Additionally there was a motorkharna.

Check the www.speedeventseries.com website & calender for WA's statewide based hillclimb & supersprint championship which is predominantly organised by the WASCC.

Collie motorplex is a long haul from Esperence & to be honest not much closer than Wanneroo.

Grab yourself a level 2 Cams licence with a car club membership (You need both) & you can then enter a heap of things...

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
