usually 9.30 to about 4

might aswell sleep in and roll up at your leisure

Yeah that would be good but I cant drive my car after 12 noon on saturday as I got defected..

how long does it take to get to shep?

Of course it does... i used the template from Jesus!!! :) (and they are old tracks, as i had to use old easy ones for the WRX MS round)

Remember that i'm Clerk of course, so all yellow cars will have a advantage. :)

6:15??? ahhhhh that is quite early

i'll probably stick with a lil before 7

around 2 hours

wow so this is what you do at a Motorkhana...haha...the courses look like fun, whats the easiest way to remember the course?

get a passenger to do co-driver rally styles?

yeah that helps..also watching other cars, jumping in as passenger for people..

good fun

It was a good day. Thanks to WRX guys for putting it on.

Bugger about Mat's clutch. Hope you got it home ok.

Can't wait for the SAU DECA coming up!

Aaron. Did you get much good footage/photo's?

yep was a good warmup for sau in a few weeks.

car was perfect all day then when i was one street away from my house it starts hesitating... hope it's just the afm

Bugger. Hope it's not a big deal!

Bugger about Mat's clutch. Hope you got it home ok.

Yeah i continued on with my weekends plans, got it back to the hotel, then drove it winton today, then to greensborough, all with a non-disengaging clutch. Drove by rev-matching between gears then slotting them in...

I was lucky to get from the hotel from winton without having to stop a all, and same again home. Although i had to stop in the middle of the shep town and get my mates to push me along to get started in gear one with huge amounts of traffic....

f**k my f**king flamin mongrel of a clutch it f**ked my whole day at deca the f**king thing and made most of my weekend a f**king waste.

At least my first time was a good time. Where do we see results?

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
