Hey Pav,

I'm going to be running Tein - Super Drift suspension this season. It is a 7kg/mm spring front and rear, which I am interested to know if it will be stiff enough, has pillow mounts and all adjustable. Apart from that I will be only running adjustable caster arms.

Dan.

GRAB A BEER!!!! OR Bourbon, or just crack a bottle of Champaign!!!!!!!

Today I got the news that I am to be a Level 1 Seeded driver in the Drift Australia National Championship for the 2006 season!!!!

I'm so stoked!!! All this hard work is now paying off... and the many hours spent on the car are all worth it!!!!

Thanks to all the sponsors EVERYBODY SEE BELOW AND SUPPORT THESE GREAT PEOPLE! In particular I want to mention Jamie Waterhouse for all his hard work and looking after the car in 2005 and committing to looking after the car in 2006!

Applications were called for from drifters who wanted to enter the Drift Australia series, and if you are approved then you are classed as a "Level 1 Seeded driver" for the whole Drift Australia Championship. There are only 28 spots, with 4 spots being reserved for wild card entries.

I'm Doing the Toyo Drift Australia Series.

I competed in the Superdrift series last year, although it was called Formula Drift last year.

Congrats!!

Just read through the thread then, well done and keep it up.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
