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

I owe VSP3C $20 but u had left before i got back. PM me ur bank details dood.

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.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
