Its some exciting times with relation to lakeside.... for starters, Lakeside Motor Racing Enthusiasts (LMRE) are going to step up their attack on council... up until now, its been a case of throw a line, see wot happens, and evuluate their position on the matter... now its getting alot more serious... Basically, lakeside got heritige listed, yet the council are prepared to spend posibly millions of tax payer dollars fighting the listing so they can do with it wot they please... the catch is... whilst heritage listed... there is no requirement for them to maintain it... their hopping that it will rot away to nothing...and that everybody will forget it excists...

over the last couple of months council has however shown a slight weakening with regard to lakeside... only slightly.. but there is a ray of light.... secondly LMRE plans to host an event to show the support of lakeside to council... i'm talking a full blown speed event.. ie.. racing... now i don't know any details further than that... but it is a distinct possibility... and it would be a hell of a lot of good fun... and for a really good cause....

i know i probably should have written this earlier.. but please... if anyone can show their support tonight it would be fantastic... 7.30pm in petrie... checkout http://www.lakesideraceway.com for further details..... your support would be greately appreciated...

For those not able to attend there is something you can do to make a difference... basically we need to show council that we aren't just going to go away and forget about one of world's greatest ever race tracks... we need to pester them and send phone, email, faxes, sms whatever it takes to let them know this isn't going to go away... we want council to think that everytime a phone rings or an email downloads, "jeez i hope its not those lakeside supporters again!" its going to take that kind of commitement and determination to get lakeside back on the motor racing calendar....

If you want some sample questions or things to ask council, and where to send them to visit http://www.lakesideraceway.com/questions.htm cheers...

BTW... just for interest sake... the police are allowed to test at lakeside... and do it pretty much weekly...

Couple of months back they wrote of a police car on the armco coming onto the straight... :)

Could someone grab those questions and possibly make it a sticky?

Put it this way... i reckon that through the various internet forums around oz... that we could easily get 5000 supporters... all it would take is for each person to send just 1 email... or make just 1 phone call a week... and could you imagine wot would be happening in council... it would be mayhem!!!!!!!!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Lucky pick up Best to find these things before something horrible happened to the yoke flange thingies I would hate to think what would happen if it dropped the tailshaft  Hopefully the holes are not flogged out in the yokes and it was just the bolts that got munted  As for the hand brake.....ouch, look like the disc got rather hot, and I assume smokey, I recall when I had a front caliper seize on the Commodore, there was lots of smoke and the disc was glowing cherry red when I was able to eventually stop and have a look, and stopping a big heavy car, going down a big hill with some rather high RPM down shifts and some hand brake action is something that makes you think hard about life

      One of the things that never seemed right was the handbrake. Put in some nice new Project Mu shoes. We figured the rears were out, so why not. We're right there. My handbrake never worked well anyway. Well, this is them, 15km later. 67fdcf94-9763-4522-97a4-8f04b2ad0826.mp4 Keen eyes would note the difference in this picture too:   And this picture: Also, this was my Tailshaft bolts: 4ad3c7dd-51d0-4577-8e72-ba8bc82f6e87.mp4 It turns out my suspicions that one side of the handbrake cable was stretched all along were pretty accurate, as was my intuition that I didn't want to drop the tailshaft to swap them on jack stands and wasn't entirely sure about bolt torque. I have since bought the handbrake cables which have gone in. I'm very glad that I went to my mechanic friend who owns an alignment machine to get an alignment before the track day, because his eyes spotted these various levels of "WHAT THE f**k IS GOING ON HERE?". Turns out the alignment wasn't that bad, considering we changed the adjustable castor arms out for un-adjustable castor arms, and messed with the heights. Car drove pretty good with one side of the handbrake stuck on, unbleedable rear brakes, alignment screwy, and the tailshaft about to go flying and generally being a death trap waiting to happen! (I did have covid) (I maintain I adjusted the handbrake correctly, but movement caused shennanigans and/or I dislodged the spring on the problem side somewhat, or god knows what). G R E G G E D

      Very interesting, im not sure how all those complications fit in to running a haltech instead of a stock ecu but I'm starting to think I'm a bit out of my league.

      I just put 2 and 2 together. This is a Neo converted R32. The Neo ECU (in concert with the R34's AC controller) runs the AC quite differently to how the R32 ECU and AC controller do it. If you just drop it all in, it won't work. There is some tricky wiring required, including changing to the pressure switch that the Neo controllers want to see. I don't know what it is, because mine was done by a guru. It was a year or so after I did that transplant before he worked out what needed to be done.

      Don't assume the AC relay signal from the ECU is +, some models including Stagea use an earth trigger.
