For me it started nice and early at Maccas Berwick then off to the Village Green and then STI at the Docklands before we even headed off to Heathcote. It was a good but small turn out compared with last year. There would of been around 20 to 25 cars in the convoy on the way up. We got there to find a lot there and cars were still turning up after lunch.

I met a lot of new people witch is allways good. And maybe some new members in the making..

A big thanks to Heathcote Park Raceway ,The WRX guys and all who had a hand in putting this together.. :(

If you have any pic put them up....

Cheers

btw good day...I finally worked out how to launch my car...practiced all the way home. LOL

tried lots of things...in the end some good drag radials would have been the go.

First time at the drags and blew the turbo down the track.. high boost on a ceramic turbo a big thumbs down! still very new to the turbo scene

Meet a lot of new people and beautiful cars which was fantastic and I did like to say a big thank you to those that helped out with my car, much apperciated

A great experience all up, cheers David

Well, I'm sorely disappointed at my results, but besides from that, it was a great day.

The two quickest cars were the Harlequin R33 GTR with a high 10s pass, and second was REXNFX I believe with a high 11..???

Hey David

Did the car drive home alright? Or did you need to chuck it up on the trailer?

Had a great day, thanks to everyone who organised it. It was a good turnout and I got heaps of runs in.

Found heathcote to be a weird track though. At Calder, for me to run a 12.9 i was getting 2.2 60'. At heathcote to run a 12.9 i need a 1.9 60'. Did anyone else find they ran slower at heathcote?

Mike.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
