Um was at gladstone road and was good, even got sunburnt, smashed a rim to pieces on a big rock and came home with a 3rd place trophy

youd think theyd cotton on being right near the track.

i like leaving my car empty till i get to taupo but theres no decent gass there

Or actually it probably cost's mroe than it's worth to sell avgas to the handfull of people who still need it at the track, you'd be surprised as to how many ...

Closing a road is too much work, and all entrants would need a Clubsport license....

Manfeild is the easiest option.

unfortuantely this is true, Any plans to hold a grass motorkhana/autocross? Or even a tight sealed one, my car doesnt fair too well on HP tracks

Hmm i might come and have a ...

My fav bit: causing oil to leak with wear. In the worst case, the car would be unable to start, it said.

Hmm i wonder if "unable to start" would be just after "came to a grinding halt"

Going to have my first shake down race over the mangamingi saddle is a few weeks.

I also need to find some helmet speakers that will plug into a Stilo WRC intercom system, to be able to talk to a co-driver.

I believe you can get adaptors to use terracom ones and maybe omp ones as well - or ...

Use blacktop ones iirc they are 45mm where as the st ones are 43, some one will no doubt correct me.
Have a look at truenotchs (palmy member) project page as he's running quads on a es with a link so you might be able to see from his pic's some stuff and ask him other things you can't see

Is on the 18th, if you can get there i have a spare helmet or 2 and some spare overalls, however if you are very large you

If anyone wishes to come for a ride, b1nz will also be there and maybe conned for taking passengers with him as ...

That starlet looks hard case, you sort of look it and go cool, then hey thats really short looking - i suppose because it actually is

Just to throw another reading out there and seeing as all the fixes have been covered my silvertop runs about 35kpa under 1krpm idle and anywhere between 35-50 when at a cold idle which is hard to put an exact rpm figure on it but is between 1100 and 1300rpm. Might wind the warm idle up a fraction ...

Ok so have searched around a bit both on here and google and can't find an answer anywhere so basicly
are the inner cv knuckles for an ae101 manual the same size as for an auto?? not to worried about axle sizes etc as i can sort that part out easily enough.
Just want to know if the inner part is ...

There was two around down here, haven't seen either for a while tho, one was real mint genuine one and for some reason i had a suspicion that the other was an engine transplant with badges added, something about it didn't quite add up

Any one got a spare set of silver top axles lying around they don't need. Figure i should probably carry a spare set around with me after spitting one out at an event before x-mas. Would be handy if the axles came with inner and outer cv's as well

yep, do that. get rid of it. you may need to cert it. but a one off $400 will be cheaper in the long run.

Ah but if you make it so it mounts to the original mounting points you'l probably get sway with it, still technically will need a cert but unless you take your car to get wofs where a ...

^^^ What he said, have you had a lok at your rear steering rack?? There is probably a sensor in there that wil be read along the length of the rack or otherwise, if sensor is bung you won't be able to fix it, if rack has somehow become unaligned (been doing any jumps lately) then i guess you could ...

Well it's that time again people!

because education clearly hasnt helped most IF ANY of the boy racer idiots!

Exactly.. what they need to do is acknowledge that theres people that are into their cars and provide a viable place / organise activities (and not just use the excuse of "they should be going to the track")..

I remember ...

What about those courtesy lanes, can pass on the inside of cars that don't use them?

Yup and it's been done before, so long as you can do it safely there's no reason you can't do it. Also why do people insist on only travelling 60-70k on gravel roads, even when they are wide and dead straight ...

When i was much younger, and had heaps of different spot lights to play around with i used to have 6 extra lights on my old laser (ok ok but i was only 16 with no money and they were free), At that time (it may have changed now) i was allowed to run the 4 spots with the high beam and the other two ...
