Last month the final round of the Kumho Lap Battle championship was completed. Over the 3 rounds we visited Wakefield Park twice and Eastern Creek to wrap it all up in the company of the WRX Club and Evolution Oz. The variety of cars that attended was great, everything from lightly modded street cars through to some pretty serious machines that you might have seen at WTAC earlier in the year. The points were close and the winners were not set in stone until the last event was over and the drivers packed up for the trip home.

All of this wouldn't be possible without the entrants so thank you to those that attended even 1 event. To those who couldnt make it or were hesistant, we hope we can see you on the track next year.

The event was generously supported by Kumho Tyres through Fsport. That support means the three class winners will take home a $1000 voucher towards Kumho Motorsport Tyres. The sponsorship also saw 6 winners take home round prizes with a $500 credit towards tyres. I cant speak highly enough of John from Fsport's willingness to support club level motorsports so if you are in the market for motorsport tyres give John a call on 1300 4 KUMHO or jump on www.fsport.com.au to check for the latest specials.

The class winners are:

Open - Greg Boyle

Club - Ben Kirker

Street - Michael Hill

Congratulations to the winners!

I think the performance between the two clubs was a good match and a lot of fun. RENEW pulled second in each category so we'll keep the winners on their toes :thumbsup: We're working on our events for next year and will be in touch with the SAU NSW committee to see if there are any mutually beneficial opportunities to go racing together next year. I'm sure a greater SAU presence would be welcomed if we can get back to Eastern Creek in a multi club event.

      Gtr r32 tank leaking: can I use stagea whc34 tank

      By Duncan · Posted

      Is WHC34 a 2 wheel drive Stagea?  4wd Stagea 100% fits, and I'd say 99% sure 2wd will too....they just used the GTR setup as that best suited the wagon floor. BTW I hope you saw Brett's post about potential reasons for a leak, unless you can see the plastic cracked somewhere, it is unlikely to be the tank itself leaking.  Can you see fuel dripping or is it just a smell when you park? Have you had any of the tank/pump holder apart?

      They did get back to me. First response is from the mechanic that did the work. The problem is that the information that followed wasn't in the original report, which again, I let car inspect know should have been provided and influenced my decision to buy. Ball is back in their court and they have 5 more days to respond.  The actual structural damage was not a complete write off as they had me originally believe.  It just needed to be corrected properly and cleanly as opposed to the botch job of whoever did it last on the rad support and undercarriage. Smoothed out the scrappy welds and did it properly plus painted.

      Haven't updated this is a while. -5 speed conversion is done. Then center console, parking brake handle, and mounting bracket can be adapted from a R34 since the S2 parts are all disco. Console is a slightly different grain pattern and color but works fine. R33/ R34 GTS (no booster) clutch pedal works as well as the matching master cylinder. Wiring is simple, jump the starter connector at the fuse box, note which wires are connected at which position on the auto neutral safety switch and cut off the switch harness and connect to the corresponding switch on the 5 speed. -Rear R34 rear subframe swap is completed. Full Nismo arm set, 2-way LSD set up soft, 322mm Brembo brakes, Ohlins Flag-R coil overs (need to drop the spring rate 1Kg) -RB swap is under way. HKS Step 2 High Response 2.8 BCD stroker kit / Step 2 V-Cam / GTIII 4R Kit I may not use the 4R kit but not sure yet as I've seen some pretty decent dyno sheets on it and it doesn't spool as slow as people think when you have v-cam. I have the wiring manual for the car and a spare 260RS harness so the wiring shouldn't be that bad but I just haven't had the time to invest in it. If anyone has a suggestion for someone who can handle it let me know! I have a bunch of spare 5mt swap parts and some Nismo 580 turbos if anyone needs/wants them hit me up. Located in California but willing to ship. As always, thanks to all the members who have answered my questions and helped this project keep moving!

      Did Car Inspect get back to you? How bad was the actual "structural" damage? What front surgery was required?
