Hi all

I would also like to thank everyone for being so nice and tolerant of me and the big blue taxi. I've always wanted to have a go and this time did it. What a hoot! Absolutely stuffed by the time I went home. Thanks for the organisers they did a great job. I would certainly like to tag along again.

Cheers

Geoff

You're absolutely welcome again at future ones!

Thanks mate! They look great!

Guys (and girls), whatever Steve-O says about the Sutton Road facility, I can vouch for - it is an AWESOME venue and will be worth every cent you spend to attend and drive at, even if we can't bring the price down much!

Be warned, though: it is a fairly narrow track with some areas that don't have too much run-off, so if we do end up placing witches hats down on the track to keep the speeds down in certain areas, don't despair because we want people to have fun WITHOUT the risk of getting hurt and damaging cars. Oh, and there were kangaroos down there when we last ran an event there a few years back, which made us pause between runs on occasion because there's not much you can do to get them off the road sections.

Back on topic, once again a MASSIVE THANKS TO ALL OUR VOLUNTEERS on the day. It gave us Execs a few quick chances to get out there and enjoy it as much as you all were too.

Yes, thanks for giving up your afternoon runs to time Nick.

Soon you'll all be seeing a new project I'm working on to automate the timing (still design phase though). More details will be coming soon.

As always I'm slow to respond, kind of like sunday.

Awesome day, thanks to everyone helping to put on another great day. Thanks to Nick for giving me a race at the end of the day. Great to see a bunch of stags out there, now we need to get them on the skid pan. Hopefully my granny driving will encourage them to uphold the stag honor.

Sutton road looks great, very keen for that.

And Steve-o I drive faster when the icecream is melting.

Sorry guys, Presidential duties (like maning a BBQ for 3 hrs) wore me out so I didn't have the time to do the normal videos.

This is the price of being the man in charge. At least you I know you miss me :)

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
