Another fantastic Team Wang weekend away - I highly recomend these to anyone :(

Rain hampered play at the track today, but some good times were recorded by all. The drive up yesterday (via the Buxton Igloo burger stop) and last night's pre-race 'quiet drinks' were not without incident. Ash and his fabulous shoulders made friends with the locals :D

Top work from Blaise in becoming a Benalla icon - and man of the match must go to Chris 'take one for the team' Scotsman.

Photos are uploading right now...

All I can say : AWESOME

Havent had so much fun in a while, drank hard, laughed, joked, got to know a great bunch of Freindly people!!! Without all the guys that came, it wouldnt have been such a great outing!

My car got rammed on the way up by a angry hill billy, no damage, but ill still report it, if anyone sees a beige 2WD hilux with a black bullbar and MOTABITZ stickers on it - let me know!!!

As for all the shenanigans from last nite, our freindly neighbours topped the list of laughs! When it got all ugly, it was me and brisby who kept guard on the vehicles in the carpark, from possible vandalism (or ramming).

All in all a great weekend, great racing, good outing, hope everything works out for you chris! The way home was interesting, with Pete in the Silver 34 docking with the Camry for a alcohol refuel. My TRD V SPEC N1 rally camry had a huge I LOVE WANG scribed into the bumper, people drove past staring angrily, while Brisby carried on and gave them some advice - "SUCK PISSSSS"

*Note - these were all taken with my new Canon S2is. Has a 12x optical zoom which makes a massive difference in the quality of the racing shots.

Well

My car got rammed just outta healsville and we stopped to ring police, as we were leaving this crazy man ran out of the pub and offered to wash James car window with a squeegee.

Brisby was screamin something at him, I had to stop the car and hold up traffic cos I nearly crashed laughing. I have never seen ne funnier shit before, he was jumping up and down like a madman down the main street.

Great pics James. Another epic weekend. I was a bit soft wang myself, but great to see so many others step up to the plate and embrace everything Benalian. Roll on the DECA weekend and what will probably be the last Team Wang roadtrip of 2005....

Awesome weekend, really was good. Funniest moment for me the new Benalia "dob in a hoon policy"

Good work Alan :D

Hehe - poor Westy caused all sorts of ruckus on the radio with his 'parade lap'.

Abused: I'd recommend just coming up for a weekend to see how things run. All you need is a few basic items on the car - and a CAMS licence.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties

      Fourth gear grind

      By FRGTN1 · Posted

      I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw

      Fourth gear grind

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
