Seeing if people are interested!

This event was run last year by another car club and it was great. So this year my club (Northern Street Cruizers, based in Tullarmarine) have decided to hire out the DECCA course in Shepparton, VIC. and run it again.

FACTS: (These are yet to be confirmed)

Date: Looking at 06/04/03

Time: Early Morning 9-10am till 3-6pm (last year we stayed at a

motel the night b4)

Price: Approx. $50 per car

We do have liabilty insurance for the day (Definate)

EVENTS: (No particular order)

1/ Time trial - A track is present at the site, we will also include a few shikanes to make it a bit more interesting. This is not all about speed but also handling. Get from start to finish in the quickest time possible.

2/ Figure 8 - This is fun but wears your tyres out chronically

3/ DEECA have a HUGE skid pan! This will be used to host various

events.

-Slalom. Witches hats placed, and parts of course watered.

- Head to Head Slalom. As prvious only much smaller and

against another opponant. Winner progresses, looser is

eliminated.

- Finally whatever goes!! All obsticales cleared off skid pan

and you have a few minutes by youself to let go.

This is just a fun day, were you can find the limits of your car and your driving ability :) in a safe and controlled environment.

I would be in for sure. I have previously organised one in the passed and im sure Meggala will tell you was a fun day had by all.

My only concern is with the drought and water on the skidpan. I know they have their own water storage area, but Last time I was there we were limited to the amount of water on the skidpan.

Please check with decca to ensure they have enough water.

GIDDY UP!

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
