id love to see 2000 hondas, that'd be epic lol

2000 honda's would be epic, not sure about the some of the owners though...

 

[godzilla]

I will come watch but that is all as I am scared I will break or bend something.

 

[fieldy107]

Come on trev, after all that work put into your car I'm sure it's begging to be let out the cage and go for a run

 

[unclepaulie]

so i assume matt and trev will drive up and meet me and christian somewhere, from there we can go to northlakes

 

[Nitephyre]

Sounds good-o

 

[parepin]

ok, gonna be a close call for time, getting my guards rolled that morning & if that doesn't happen, my wagon aint going anywhere haha

so, uh, here's hoping i see you guys there :/

 

[Jsteel]

ok i might see if i can catch up with trev and matt and cruise up with them

 

[godzilla]

Sorry James, and others, I am out

Will just have to watch the videos.

 

[Nitephyre]

Aww, no Trev *QQ*

James, you know the Caltex on the highway at Mudgeeraba? That's usually where we meet. Best time would probably be by 10:30

 

[parepin]

I has a rubbing issue with my rear rubbers on that top arm...so I'm not keen to fang it round a track when I haven't even driven it normally doing that......sorry!

 

[unclepaulie]

all good mate

 

[Abusive]

Have fun tomorrow guys.

 

[Jsteel]

Hey matt sorry just logged on uhm mudgreeraba is a bit far out of the way for me any chance I could meet you somewhere near the hyperdome? 0417312922 can you text me so I have your number then I can call you as I have crap service at home. Cheers p.s I've got helmet cam and video cam some will be sorted

 

[godzilla]

So, come on, where are the pics/details? I feel bad enough I couldnt come, give me something!

 

[unclepaulie]

one pic, sms'ed from cheyne:

christian got more, so did matt i think.

josh/frozen, cheyne/budki and the new owner of OVR44 came out too. Christian didnt end up going on the track as he didnt trust his LCA's too much.

Personally speaking; it was a great day! some awesome street cars in our little group and some amazing race cars there on the day. Was an amazing feeling to get out there and give the car the beans legally. COP, tune and 20psi and the car was flawless. The brakes on the other hand....the peddle and firewall made contact once or twice; and my ABS works well too haha.

Another limiting factor for me was the factory bus seat i sit on. i must get my buckets in asap, or ill buy a fancy fixed back pending my finances. Also, my ghetto oil return (or lack there of) from the rear rocker, covered the lower rear of the engine bay, steering rack, passenger front wheel well in misty hot oil, mmmmm yummy. time to get a catch can lol

Unfortunately I have a new addiction and its worse then crack cocaine...track racing.

I think chris is going to organise another session for ozvr4, with plenty of notice so everyone better come; and a mate of mine is a photographer so he's keen to document it all.

my wanted parts list just got a little longer :/

front camber ball joints
235 semi slicks
bucket seat
momo retrim
short shifter
helmet
seat cam


well that was a rather large post, i wonder what matt and james think about the day

 

[naughtika]

sorry fellas I didnt run today.. I have this gut feeling that I shouldn't trash my car til i get everything sorted..

I've got about 200 photos though.. and I'm still trying to upload all of them.. will post the link later on.. no close up shots due to my lens, so you'll have to forgive me for my incompetence

 

[fieldy107]

Sounds like a fun day, hopefully I can make the next one. My car already has a catch can fitted, so I shouldn't end up with a messy engine bay

 

[mookers]

ghetto rear oil return? what is that?

 

[Nitephyre]

Yeah as you lot already know I have a love affair with Lakeside and getting to play with her again today just leaves me wanting moar! As per Pauline, I *heart* my tune, much more responsive and smooth around there now. All I need is my Cobra seat, short shift and Momo and I'd be set I reckon

Oh, btw Paul, after leaving your place and hitting the Gateway again, I had a few of the cars that were there go past, ie: Green S1 RX-7, titsballin' red Cibic (which let off a mad plume of rubber smoke when exiting Gateway onto Pacific Mwy :O) and the little white Familia. We definitely need to have an OZVR4 day there sometime soon... maybe after tax time

 

[unclepaulie]

ghetto rear oil return? what is that?

you know how there is the pipe from the rear rocker into the pre-turbo intake pipes?

well i blocked the intake pipe and routed some new pipe from the rocker cover to....some where down low, it may or may not VTA. which is bad when pushing the car as oil goes everywhere:

shat myself when i saw it, though my gearbox had exploded or something :S
