I'll also be speaking to Jim about another time he can come down. The good news is Jim was genuinely interested in coming to speak to us so I will either try and get him for the November dinner night or along to one of our usual club nights.

I'll keep you all posted on discussions with him.

So guys - fear not - we aren't going to let this disappointment stop us from trying to provide you guys with as many good things as we can.

Pretty sure mine didn't come through either and my spam is advised so I know what is coming in. Just one of those little bugs I guess.

I guess the same faces at the club nights would have been present as always and maybe a few extras but this is a bit dismal. We have a good club but there are some just not participating.

I hear Troys argument for the value of the night too.

I also want to add my appreciation to the efforts of the comittee and volunteers

For the amount of Members there are including all associates/friends/partners of members this is a real kick in the junk. To only get 50 confirmed people to what is one of the biggest nights for SAU-Vic is VERY disapointing. I am saddned by the massive effort all the organisers go to for the benefit of members (us) only for the event(s) not to go ahead.

As everyone one else has already said basically... but again a big thanx to all the guys who tried to get this event to happen as it sounded like a fantastic night and was looking forward to it...

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech!
