I just read the whol thread, and do we have a definite decision for superlap on this?

Are any of the other cars from O/S or locals running active aero?

Superlap might end up like Group B did!

How many of the o/s cars do you think would have a aussie cams spec cage?

Best to talk to Nathan @ Superlap regarding the aeromotions stuff.

I know the answer but anyone with a real interest needs to talk to the actual organisers.

Yes it is/was fine to run the dynamic wing at superlap. Personaly i didn't because it was all mounted on a carbon boot lid (which was not allowed for WTAC). I think Berry may have been running his aeromotions wing at superlap however.

Anyway on a related note it was announced a week ago (at a State Supersprint round) that the AM Dynamc wing has been sanctioned LEGAL for SV cars in the NSW supersprints [yet again] despite schedule F etc. and despite the protests. I believe some are still complaining (not really about schedule F and what it means moreso on vehicle registration legalities now). If this is the game people want to play, i think we all know that many cars have technically illegal mods on their cars (even those writing the protests it seems..) so you will reap what you sow guys. I dont think it will be smart to open that can of worms, you will see protests fly left, right and centre which would be a shame.

Because people always respond well to threats :P

Yes Mark Berry ran an Aeromotions wing on the R34 at Superlap. Here is a photo of Mark's car on Saturday from Eastern Creek ...

It was mounted on some monster tall uprights.

Great to hear.

been follwing this thread for sometime and it goes to show those who just throw a wing on to look good and there are the ones who actually purchase the unit that is designed to do the job,

good to see companies like

aeromotions, Varis, Voltex actually spend the money in aero tunnels to ensure your getting the right product.

I asume aeromotions are a fully wind tunnel tested unit?

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
