Hi everyone,

Mercury Motosport is hosting a dyno day with 100% of the proceeds going towards the Premiers Flood Appeal, to help raise money for the victims of the recent & devastating Queensland floods.

This fundraising event has been registered with the Premiers Flood Appeal (fundraiser promoter reference number TF/11/3474) & we are hoping to raise $4000-$5000 for this appeal (this amount has also been lodged with the PFA) :)

DETAILS ARE:

WHEN? Saturday 26th February

WHERE? Mercury Motorsport Premises - 2/278 Newmarket Road, Wilston (behind the Lifeline store)

WHAT TIME? From 9am onwards (possibly til 7pm)

WHO CAN ENTER? Any cars can enter - 4 cylinder, 6 cylinder, 8 cylinder, 10 cylinder, 12 cylinder, rotary, forced or naturally aspirated, of any power & almost all fuels (just not straight methanol - for safety reasons!)

ENTRANTS RECEIVE: 3 power runs per car, dyno graph printout

COST TO & HOW TO ENTER: $100 per vehicle (limited spots, enter early!) On-the-day entry is accepted, however pre-entry is recommended to ensure you secure a spot. Simply deposit $100 into the following account: Bank: Bendigo, BSB: 633000, Account Number: 132835349, Account Name: Mercury Motorsport Australia Pty Ltd. NOTE: Please use "DYNO" + your name as a reference for the deposit ie. DYNO JOHN SMITH. Print out transaction & bring it with you on the day!)

N.B Entry forms will be allocated to all entrants on the day & all entrants will be required to sign a declaration form

BBQ (steak/sausage/onion/salad sandwiches) & cold softdrinks/water will be available to buy, plus we will be holding raffles - prizes donated by Turbosmart & Mercury Motorsport - & donation buckets will be present (again, ALL proceeds from these will go to the appeal).

Entry spots have already started to fill up & this will be a great social day for a great cause so even if you do not wish to enter your vehicle, please come along & support this appeal by making a small donation to the collection bucket.

FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE CALL US ON 07 3352 3363

Best of luck for the day. Pity they chose the Premiers Flood Appeal. The Cow has made it means tested for max $45K income, so those who earn more than that will not receive help. There should be no discrimination when helping people in need. Meanwhile, this money will sit there earning interest that this corrupt labour govt will use to underwrite their bottom line. Blighs' corruption knows no bounds.

Personally I'd prefer the Red Shield Appeal. The Salvos do so much good.

Hi everyone!

Just to let you know that the entry fee for our Flood Appeal Dyno Day has been halved to $50 as it appears that not too many of us are very charitable!

So, spots are starting to fill up now, if you were thinking about entering but the price was holding you back - enter now by depositing your $50 into our account!

Help us support such a great cause...

:)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
