Well its been a while since an update but the car hasn't gone that far.

I decided to do the steering rack change myself knowing I had as much time as I needed and a spare car to use, it just took way longer than I was expecting. I managed to get Ivan Tan's old rack from his GC8, which turns out to be a 2.7 and had that ready to go in and the initial installation went well right up to the point where I needed to reconnect the power steering lines then the problems started. I didn't realise that the RS and GC8 had slightly different line angles. So the RS ones wouldn't fit, then managed to get some off Corrie which went in until they needed to connect to the fluid reservoir and they were out by quite a bit and that was that. So in the end i went out and bought braided lines and have finally got them on and bolted up with everything that I took apart, done back up :)
Will be starting it back up tomorrow morning for the first time in a while so hopefully all goes well and will be competing at sprint on Sunday!

Also during that time I grabbed the VOS ecu off TJ and managed to fix that up so that will be going back in as well. Also grab some used A032 and will be putting them on for sunday so it will be good to see the diffence between crappy street tyres and used r-comp.


Big thanks to Ivan at Go gear for the rack and advice, Corrie and Ludwig for the help along the way, and TJ, mainly for the ecu but as well constantly telling me to fix it :p and anyone else ive forgotten thanks :)

First clean its had in a long time!

Cars going into ASG tomorrow to be dyno checked and make sure its not mucking around. Recently it had a wheel alignment from the guys at Wilkinson and it feels great!
Its had coil packs replaced (one of which died and that was causing the issues at rally sprint), spark plugs and leads replaced.

If all is well I'm aiming on doing the No Limits night on the 6th after everything has been bleed once again.

Cheers to all that helped out along the way once again :)
