^^^ sucks Terence!

My car has been in shop 3 weeks. Was supposed to be finished last Tuesday and I went down today and he tells me it will be finished Wednesday. :rolleyes:

I still have to get W/A, sort diff out and another issue of exhaust popping on decel when ambient temps are over approx 30 degrees Celsius. >_<

Good work Daniel!! :thumbsup:

I'm in. Been a while but it's just like riding a bike right? Except I'm in a car... Ahwell, I'll just stick to my old ways. When in doubt... Burn out.

See you all soon!

Reppin for the North East (f**k Campbell).

Filling out the form right now... ...Making payment soon...

Got my helmet today and have spent the afternoon making a bracket for my fire extinguisher...

Good work.

Time for a reminder if you rock up to scrutineering with a loose fire extinguisher, Maccas wrappers in the back seat, loose carpets, missing wheel nuts, loose battery, amp held in by cable ties, crappy beaten up helmets or anything else like that you'll be told to go and sort it out. The supp regs are clear about how the car is to be presented so get it right the first time. Telling the scrutineer that 'it passed at the last drift day at winton' doesn't mean anything. We aren't vicdrift scrutineers :)

Fire extinguishers need to have metal brackets!

Good work.

I've read over the PDF in the original post a number of times and spoke to Martin on the GOR cruise and via PM to make sure I've got everything covered... ...Paperclips are metal... :whistling:

lol, that! The last Vicdrift day I was a passenger at they let the car I was in on with only 2/4 bolts holding the passenger seat in. My trips around Winton in the car throughout the day were interesting.

Good work.

not to forget:

Competitors must wear non-flammable clothing extended from ankles to neck to wrists. Nylon clothing is not permitted. Shoes must be closed toe.

this goes for passengers as well.

    • bumping this post as im still having dramas, my fuel pick up is sitting on the bottom of the tank, my pump gets a constant 13 volts through a relay, my fuel pressure holds consistently without fluttering or dropping, yet as soon as im near half a tank of fuel my car starts fuel starving and leaning out, it cant be due to g force as it never pulls hard enough before it starts breaking up, any help would be much appreciated 
    • Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.
    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
