a lot of the imports sit across the road i find. Bit safer over there as well i reckon. If you have a lot of spare points then by all means go to harry's, but for someone like myself on a one year 1 point then i wouldn't go near the place. Something to think about.... I've had 3 fines in my history, 1 at harry's diner, the other at aspley maccas and another on the way to aspley maccas. never had a speeding fine. I no longer go to any local car hangouts, i just cruise with the rest of the boys in our car club up a mountain, to an industrial estate or hang out somewhere away from the unwanted attention.

It seems funny that everyone seems to have so many dramas down there. I have gone there for ages, not to hang out with spankers, just to see the effort that people put into their vehicles and to pick up the occassional new idea.

I dont want to seem picky - but i would submit that the only cars i have ever seen defected whilst i was there (And there was a red torana defected last friday night) have had the attention of police drawn to their vehicle because they have been behaving / driving stupidly.

If you dont provide them with a reason with which to lookover your vehicle then you should be right. Continues to work for me.

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
