For everyone who needs stickerising done to their car...

Speak to Damian at Grafico - 0408 325 455

He knows cars and will be happy to work to your budget. He can take images of your car and help design both logo/sponsor art as well as generic stripes and things. Nice guy - tell him I sent you.

Dead in the water. But at 4pm today i got a sniff of another life line. if it comes off i will be absolutely stoked! For no other reason as i will be 100% confident that the person punting Ol Silver will put on a good show and be a good sport to boot. Fingers crossed this pans out...i am now actually mega motivtaed rather then trying to tell myself to pump up. :whistling:

LOLO...like i said Ben, as the date loomed closer it was always going to be hard to sit it out, especially as the car is coming along nicely. The past two weeks i have been kicking myself i didnt lock you in when i had the chance. Anyway...ill wait patiently and hope this pans out :(

After all, what sort of circus woudl Dutton 2007 be without its clowns :mellow:

Great to hear mate!

Hope it all pans out for you.

The initial entry lists are out (79 entries so far). Don't know who this Troy Brisbe guy is but his name sounds like Frisbe. Unfortunately no-one wants to play with him though.

3 of the top 5 teams from last year are also currently missing and the 6th team is now split so there is a chance of a good showing in Vic this year. Still have to deal with the 2 pensioners though.

Yeh, my dance card is empty. It seems my sponsors cant find a stuiable co-driver that doesnt clash with our marketing strategy. Its very difficult finding someone up to the task of piloting my thing.

It seems James has set the bar too high. All i ask for is a person that can punt a car hard, play hard, enjoy themselves....and if they bin it at least have a good one liner ready for us when you get back to the pits :wave:

Ohhh. The lat minute rush :P

The race to the bar...now we are talking. I just heard the best news i have ever heard from Scotsman. It seems i will be spending lots of time with him, or the supporters of Moby Dick over the weekend. Im tipping the back seat of the GTR is the place to be.

And for farks sake, they spelt my name wrong :wave:

    • Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.
    • How old is the battery, it's more likely your battery is on its way out.
    • I reckon you'd get 90% off. My washer doesn't get between spokes very well. Haha! I love my Gerni!  Argh! Steam cleaning has its place for sure.
    • Hey all, I did a voltage test with the car (video attached) not running for 3 days. And here is some interesting stuff: - Battery voltage is 12v (I had the key in the ON position) - Drops to 9.76v while cranking then quickly goes up to 14.5v - You will notice there was a sorta slow start but not as slow as it usually is. - Idle surprisingly was better at just over 1,000rpm instead of 1,100 rpm. - I turned on the A/C, radio and headlights in the video and the voltage remains the same - I haven't cleaned the grounding wires on the chassis yet, that's next. - Battery drops to 12.6v when I turn off the car and wait a bit Seems like I might have a parasitic draw? I do have an immobiliser system which does drain the battery more of course but was wondering if there is anything else I should be looking at fixing? Does the ground wires on the chassis have anything to do with the low 12v?        SAU.avi
    • My lord that is some low oil pressure as minimum in the manual! I guess the big part will be seeing how it changes as the engine gets more spirited use.
