Yeah, they badass. Wagging 4 lyf, yo. (My y12 motto 1/4 of the time, anyway xD).

Nah, it's only really if I'm free and for some reason my mum or dad can't take them. Considering it's in the opposite direction to both work and uni, it's never "on the way"

[jukic.j]

Wow, surely there are more of us in the east? Look forward to meeting any and all of you.

If anyone is working on their car, i'm keen to lend a hand so I can learn some stuff and maybe get a hand with mine.

Haha can't wait to get out there but I need to get myself and the car ready!

I haven't had a car for a year so i feel like i'm learning how to drive again!

What do I need to do to get my car ready for track? Some things I have seen;

1. fire extinguisher
   
2. helmet
   
3. mark battery location somehow???
   
4. new brake pads for track use so I dont get brake fade after 2 laps?
   
5. Engine oil cooling improved?
   

Help me get her ready so I can beat your asses on the track

ALSO I need a tune BADLY, running rich and getting <300km per tank anyone got any info for me? on price/contacts tips? Car has Apexi Power FC

Check the O2 sensor, my old 33 was getting around 250kms per tank and was because of the busted O2 sensor.

[jukic.j]

I have some little thing which gives me readings between like 12.0 and 17.0 (rough estimates cant really see it while driving) is that the thing that is supposed to be hooked up to the O2 sensor? It's also my turbo timer. I have an Apexi Power FC.

I was looking at getting a wideband is that the same and/or better than an O2 sensor?

The guy I bought it off said it needed a tune, how can I tell if it's the O2 sensor or it just needs a tune or is it a case of needing both? I'm super noob i'm just learning now.

[gtsttrk]

Should have an inner eastern suburbs meet up. Balwyn maccas br0s lol.

Honestly not sure if there are any exact ways to tell, but the engine light I'd assume could light up. The only way i knew it was mine was I put two and two together. Personally I don't know a lot about wideband, but there are some threads on it I'm sure.
