Should I decide that 3/4 of a timing belt is sufficient I'll be down there on Friday. Teins went in last night, alignment done at Spinning Wheel this morning. Fluids changed last night. (Timing belt is rubbing against the cover and some (1/4) of it is not there anymore and turned into fluff... so there's something probably wrong at the bottom of the engine - it's only gotta last another month or so... though I have my doubt if it'll last the drive down to Goulburn, let alone a thrashing on the track...) (Anyone have a second hand timing belt they'd be willing to donate? :)) Mos. |

I'm sure we can drum one up. This would be a worthwhile exercise Mos, a before and after dyno run might be ok, but a before and after track run will tell us alot more about your conversion! |

There are still two spots left if anyone wants to go to Wakefield on Friday - I realise it's extremely short notice but if someone can make it it's available ![]() Pulled a bit more apart yesterday and there has to be something else damaged, like a bent bolt/shaft on one of the idlers/tensioners to skew the belt forward. Installing a new belt will just just eat it up as well. I think it should live 2-3 weeks before the V8 goes in.. As you said Matt, before and after would've been super ![]() BTW, I'd expect the IS in its current form to be faster around wakefield than the sprinter was. The power to weight is slightly higher in the IS and the first impressions with the suspension is more a lot more corner speed with a softer ride than the AE86, and the brakes are much much better. Mos. |

There is not enough demand for ACoA to host there own event at the moment. Another Ian Luff, perhaps, but with Wakefield events, we will partner with other clubs eg. MX5 club, Circuit Club. Confirmed for Wakefield, June 11th: - Storms Of Fate - Thunderbird2 |

I can't confirm yet, but I'm extremely interested. I realise it's probable that I'll miss out, but I can't commit at this uncertain stage unfortunately. The 11th is a reasonable deadline for at least getting a project driveable so we'll see how it goes. ![]() Mos. |

Update - now confirmed: - Sendog and Friends! - Storms of Fate - Thunderbird2 I will split this off into a seperate topic when i / someone else get's time! We will also have a cruise on the Sunday June 10th for new members and our VIC visitors. Probably a south run (it will be a long weekend, so we need to take this into account). New topic for this when i / someone else get's time! |
