I haven't been there since they changed hands but I did hear that now it's RAC it's a bit more strict.

Yeah I work there from time to time.. I don't tend to do the skidpan days, I am usually taking the V8 rides, but the deal is that the RAC have an image to uphold in the public eye of course. I've been to a couple of the monthly meetings and they are all pretty good about it - but of unfortunately they get the odd member of the public ringing up asking why the RAC is promoting 'hoonlike behaviour' and so on.. so if said member of the public drives past and see's heaps of tyre smoke that what causes the issues..

Bottom line is, they don't mind you sliding around, and after all that's what the idea is, to control the car and experiment a little - but its when someone goes out time after time and loops it, then stay on the gas pretty much doing a burn-out that we have to step in and ask you to back down a notch..

That said - if anyone's going to a ride in the V8's send me a msg and let me know in case I'm on that weekend!

And... my machine is back on the road! Just fired up this weekend - still on run-in, but looking forward to getting back out there! A couple of new seats to get comfy in too.

How comfy are the sparcos?

awwww y'know.... I maybe wouldn't pick them for driving to say... Bunbury.

But they're the shizzle for going round corners 'comfortably'. ;)

      RB25DET S1 Into R32 GTS-T Assistance Required!!!

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      This is a simple swap when you reuse the RB20 loom and auxiliaries. I run a standalone, but if I remember right, using the RB25 ecu you only have 2 injectors to inverse.  There are many DIY's on this subject online, including this forum.

      Surprisingly the D6000 is only $1999, I'm waiting for the BF/CM sales, and hoping to get one cheaper. D4000 is well priced, still outperforms the 13" SVS PB-3000 and is like 1/2 the price at $1699 RRP. I do watch a fair amount of movies, and listen to EDM, jazz, symphonies, etc. so the lower notes from a subwoofer are always appreciated. The front 8" stage, just doesn't provide you with lively feeling, even though they are pretty bassy for a pair of large bookshelves. Then again, these days it's just playing Wiggles, Blippi and Ms Rachel, another reason the 3m wide cabinet exists, to hide all the audio gear behind it. They used to sit on a nice pair of stands, but as you know, they make good baby traps too.

      Granted, which is a solid reason why I don't have one. My floorstanders are only -2 dB at 22 Hz.  So they're still working down to <20 Hz. Which is no doubt part of the reason why my receiver shits the bed! That Tonewinner would be about double the cost though, so it's not apples and apples. There aren't many AU$1300 subs (that you can buy prebuilt, I'm ignoring what can be achieved by DIYing) that compete.

      -6dB at 22Hz isn't that great, watch the data from the D6000 from REW

      I'll just leave this here. https://www.adelaidespeakers.com/subwoofers.html TL loading, big power. They sound awesome. This is what I would buy if I was going to try to take the bass away from my floorstanders. Just go with the 12".
