Just wondering who is/has entered the next SAU round at Calder run by WRX?

http://www.forum.wrx.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=78358

83 are entered but a lot of entrants seem to have unticked the publish name button, so not sure who is in.

My car would be in bits if I took it to Calder!

:yes: bumps

It used to be my head hitting the roof due to the bumps that concerned me - so got a custom mount/bucket seat installed which has given me inches of head room - sweet.

My car would be in bits if I took it to Calder!

F'ing lol. It would too. Sandown brings it close enough to bits.

I'm doing maintenance stuff. Replacement exhaust manifold.

Also an updated turbo, only another 10-15% more power. But that 10-15% power counts.

What a bloody excellent day... Sun was out, groups were ok and nothing in our group broke.

Managed a 1:02.5 - not even sure if that's fast. Playing with the Porsche gt3 was a highlight.

Fun day... I think we may have been in the same group, 5?

I felt a bit outclassed seeing GT-Rs, Porsches and M3s all fly by...! I think a group shuffle may have been needed. But no major issues in our group luckily besides some poor overtaking etiquette from one of the guys.

Anyway a lap from the day...

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
