I know of another 2 people not on that list apparently coming so thats not a bad little turn out for the first event (I wasnt expecting more than 10 to be honest!) So - I think I will start up a new thread in the members section regarding classes for the club championship. If you are interested please give your comments.

if we havent got a competition number, r we gonna b given one on the day? does everyone has to compete?

If you're going out on the track, you will be given a number for the purpose of identifying your car for timing - unless you specify a preferred number on your entry form.

What classes have you guys entered your car in or will there be a seperate skyline outing?

I'll send off my entry tonight. Hopefully its not to late!

Associate class... there are about 20 places left.

1wl to go...eeek:(

The car should be running this weekend. Only the coilpacks still havent turned up. The package that i though was them was a DVD copy of American Psycho:)

Does anyone feel like lending me their Splitfire coil packs so i can get the car tuned? Big ask i know, but i just need them for tuning at higher boost. Also need to get the exhaust done, but thats not a must, just a want.:D Once i know the car is running i need to get it to Bayswater

I may be dumb but I can't find out where to register to the wrx site. Could somrebody PLEASE check again because I think it was updated last night. Also are normal seatbelts ok?

Normal seat belts are ok. The entries list will be updated later tonight.

The list has now been updated and you're on the list, Gareth Evans... number 19 :P

Car turned over today:) So have to flush all fluids, fit bonnet and check the boost controller etc works, and fiddle with the wastegate. Its looking ok, Fri night/sat will be a big effort, Back in Adelaide so wont have time to drop off for a tune and exhaust:(

Nice effort indeed Troy :) After seeing the mess you've been working on I think it would be a top job to get everything back together by Saturday.... only 5 days to go :) I'm getting those Project Mu pads on Wednesday... so hopefully should be able to get them fitted on Wednesday/Thursday evening.

:(

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
