Hey all! In a bit of a pickle. Chasing two 225-45-17 ku36's. Was meant to pick some up from Advance in richmond but none in stock and only one in the warehouse.... if anyone knows where in Melb or ne vic I can get some please pm me. Otherwise I may have a very odd wheel tyre combo for Deca!

Cheers, Glen.

Thanks guys!

I'll get on it first thing Monday morning. Looks like another trip to melb maybe on the cards haha!

I think Option 1 will deliver for you. Might be able to get em in a few days to save yourself the trip.

to rain or not to rain, the weather forecast for next weekend says rain :yes:

so all you guy's with semi's have a back up plan ? i don't think slicks would be very good in the wet

yay i found the event schedule, why didn't i look there first

semi's... what semis?

RB20's don't have that do they? :)

Hey Leon.

I went moto riding with Andy on the weekend. He told me you bought his car. Are you bringing that to DECA? See if it can handle more than 1 run?

yeah man... bought his car... well see how it goes next time as it still has some issues with the clutch!

Taking the red 180 this time and might put some 'for sale' stickers on it to see if i can move it along to someone else!

semi's... what semis?

pipe down you with your ladida streets :)

Jesse and Chris are out, Antony and Tom G are in.

Less than a week to go! A wet deca could be interesting... if it does rain all 4WDs are banned ;)

im only using what crappy tyres i have, and unfortunetly i have 2 sets of old hard rubber which i feel the need to abuse and wear down.....slowly... :)

omg yeh i had a look at the skidpan layouts, and i like the inclusion of the roundabout in the mini wang !

looking forward to next weekend.

What would be worse? Random average street tyres, or KU36s in the wet, or would I be fine in either if careful?

If it's wet I'll just use this as a big learning experience!

No worries Tom, see you at the next one. Sam you are now in.

Kieran, you need to be careful no matter what tyres you run. and they need to have decent tread depth.

Keep in mind people cold brakes and tyres in the wet on track are very dicey and easy to lock up. its even more important to try and brake in a straight line to keep your weight evenly distributed. (on the back tracks). The skid pan is just rediculous when its wet. I say this as we would like to avoid cars going off as much as possible, obviously :)

The Kumhos have more tread, but both are roadworthy. I guess I'll stick with the kumhos as they're my daily tyres and this will be the best way to learn how my car will react on the street in the wet if I get into a slippery situation.

Like I said, I'm just going to go nice and easy and take this as a big learning experience rather than a race. :)

holly f**k forgot this was this saturday. soo much to do. well not that much. needs to do a full service and mount fire extinguisher.

also if it rains ill just stock to the skid pan and will just cruise around the wangs lol

    • Strange your posting about this being an issue. Move the harness or change your wheels or run more camber etc. Have the thing not touch the thing so it doesn't destroy the thing.  Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer, the factory fuel gauge is measuring resistance. You need to wire in the FPG fuel level sender into the original factory fuel level sender wiring.  I drew you a picture to explain this one The factory strainer is quite long, reaching down into the bottom of the tank. Safe bet your aftermarket fuel pump has a little baby sized strainer that probably doesn't even point down towards the bottom of the thank.  Solution, move the pump lower down in the tank, or fit a longer strainer, or do both. I did both, I've run my tank down to 5L remaining and the car still drove fine.   
    • S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.
    • Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?
    • Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers
    • ChatGPT is trash and lies about things I would not expect it to lie about considering many things it's wrong about are very easily verified with google. The S3 R33 GTR shares its steering wheel with R33 GTSTs of the same production year. Part number is 48430-26U17. I'm guessing you have to get it from a car that came with HICAS though, the ER33 is 48430-26U18, but the HR33 diagrams note that part number is still leather vs 48430-26U13 which is not leather-wrapped. They all use the same airbags, so if you need another one you can get it off basically any same year R33 or Stagea.
