Dunno about that, most of the 86's I see have stupidly sized wheels, lowered to the bump stops with all the camber for hard parking meets.

Then the ones that try to drive fast with TC/DSC off end up as parted out wrecks at Import Monster

^I'm not disputing that, in fact, I agree. Most people destroy the awesome handling of our cars.

I'm just pointing out that a standard Excel wouldn't out-handle, nor pull away from a standard 86 in a straight line. One is an older, FWD family car which accidentally happened to handle well. The other is a newer, RWD, proper sports car with a lot of R&D that went into the handling of the car. It might be a little bit slow, but it's not that slow. And in the hands of a good driver (ie. you) they do wonderful things.

lol relax guys, but yeah. Honestly, it was no doubt a crap driver but I did killed him in the 2 hairpins before he did a loser flyby on the straights.
"It don't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning." :P

But since then, I've been really curious how my excel on lowered king springs actually compares to the 86.

I was hoping to have the Skyline back on the road so I can come and watch and help out. But it's looking like it's not going to happen. :unsure:

Do you think they'll let me plug the LEAF into an outlet for a few hours to top me up so I can get home afterwards? :blush:

Buy a petrol generator from bunnings and strap it to the roof... Unlimited range!

You might as well just drive a petrol vehicle then since you're still using petrol.... what you might want to do is strap some solar panels on the roof. Unlimited range anyone?

Hey guys,

I've entered and paid for this event but I'm going to have to pull out as my car needs it's mechanical gremlins from Phillip Island sorted out once and for all before Round 2 at Winton so it will be off the road until then.

How do we go about getting someone else to fill my spot for this? Also what happens with the entry fee that I've paid? I'll probably still come along on the day for a while to spectate...

Hey guys,

Same here

Do I withdraw via this post, email motorsport or via the entry site?

Aim is to still free up some time to assist.

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
