So had a great day on the skid pan (10-6-2012). Plenty of oversteer moment thanks to the rain and the coils set 75% front and 65% rear

So I really am keen to do another one, or two... Or as many as I can! But before then I want to upgrade the injectors (give me more headroom) and a TD05 16G . (TD05 is good for the 200kw I want from it)

The AVO 450 is fun on the straights but hopeless under 3500rpm. So I am hoping the 16G will be making close to full boost by 3500rpm. Can anyone confirm or denie the full boost rpm of the 16G?

So few things happening the past few days:

1) Tracked down a TD05-16G
2) Bought some 750cc Injectors (shouldn't max these bad-boys out)
3) Found my MC motorsport calander and waiting for PAY-DAY to book 2-3 more events. Long track preferably so I can get some HIGH SPEED experiance where I won't worry about demerit points.

ALSO, my last skidpan day has already paid for itself

On my way home (in the early AM) coming off Grogan Rd onto Abernethy Rd, towards High Wycombe, must have driven through some oil or something because 4-wheel-drift! Lucky I had plenty of practise on the skidpan and was able to bring the car into line and not into a light pole

So over the past week I have had a bit going on.

- TD05 18G in on its way.
- 725cc Injectors are on their way.
- New tune, spark-plugs, boost and service in the coming weeks (yet to be booked).
- Work has been getting in the way of more track days!?!? Every PWRX day lately I have been working those days/parts of those days.

Daniel.

Hey all,

As some of you may have seen my beloved WRX is for sale.

***FREE PLUG***
http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/sale-car...c-evo-7-a.html

It's a pity it has to go but I got the opportunity that I could not pass up.
I put a deposit on a 2012 MPS 3 (2013 series 3/facelift specification) from Melville Mazda. I have been waiting for a while for this model to make an appearance and got a little surprise when Mazda called me so soon (was expecting early/mid next year).

Been sussing one out since a test drive several months ago. They are brutal, torque-steering animals! So much fun to drive quick and easy to drive normally. It's like my Integra all over again and I honestly missed the FWD chassis going to the WRX.

I hope to get it by November, so a bit of a wait
It will be given a catback, Cobb accessport, tint and springs to finish off the already great package

I can certainly recommend Melville, great service, advice and value.
Now hopefully I can sell my car soon and start collecting parts in anticipation

Daniel.

*Le Sigh

Car is pretty close to being SOLD, got some serious buyers...

In other news, Mazda have given me Floor Mats, Cargo Net and 3 Year Extended Warrenty FREE which is a nice touch.

***FREE PLUG: MELVILLE MAZDA ROCKS***

But i still have to wait until, November.

In Gayer news, my work mate gets his FT86 in October... He has only been waiting for 3 months or something like that

So by Christmas it will be FWD vs RWD in the office.
