We also have a friendly reminder from Mallala Cop,

"The G1 Drift Event listed for Mallala on the 3rd August will again have a strong traffic Police presence and this meeting would not be ideal for those with licence, registration or vehicle defect (already defected) issues. I hope that a prior warning will be a way of ensuring all have a great weekend and so patrons can simply enjoy some Great Drifting and not be bothered with issues associated with these offences."

My car is almost ready, new coilovers in, goes in tuesday for bigger wastegate spring and another tune and then all set to go.

:wave: heavy cop presence

so?

thats what we need, keep morons from trying to copy what happens on the track. keep it on the track and there will be no hassles.

i might try and make it out to this one.

even if u dont do anything wrong u will be picked on.

I had mates going to DA and was just normally driving along and pulled in and defected.

Its just a event where if u have a defectable car you have to be prepared to be defected or take your parents car.

personally i think if anyone is stupid enough to still take their import to mallala they deserve to get defected.

how many warnings do people need before they learn?

are you a cop or sumthin buddy??? why should i live in fear of driving my stock import out to watch some motorsport????

if these arsehole police did the right thing and pulled over the kids doing fully sick skids out the carpark or in a car with rust falling out of the cabin floor then i wouldnt think twice about driving out there....

you have a stock car? what are you whinging about then?

its stock, but its an import.........odds are my car is 100x safer than a holden of the same year (89) yet im 100x more likely to be pulled over after leaving mallala.....

im not dumb, ive been going out there since i was a kid and seen the cops get worse and worse every year, im all for the dickheads gettin pulled over and defeted but those cops just get on there power trip and ping anyone with a japanese car

live and learn, thats life.

can this thread not turn into another debate about mallala and cops, worried about defects, find another way of getting there. We took flicks old 32 to almost every drift event while she owned it, never had a problem. Its pot luck as to who gets picked on, some get lucky, some dont.

+1

I'll be there to spectate.

Will be there showing some love to the Bonez.......

Once again use your brain peoples, if you WANT/HAVE to drive your import out there, the cops aren't gonna be there all night after it finishes, so leave later after they pack up, or get there early and miss any defect station if there is gonna be one!!

Not trying to invent the wheel here.......

smh you all look past the point, why should we live in fear???? your all under the thumb of the state police force, they say jump, you say how high

Well mate there is nothing YOU or I can do about it, besides im not living in fear nor am i under anyones thumb, so i say deal with it, do what you have to to get around it!!

Lol, you speak of them like a needy girlfriend that you can just dump and move on. For those of us that drive defectable cars, its the risk we take. You know even stock cars can be defected? Worn and cracked seals, bald tyres, structural damage, damaged suspension etc.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
