TECCWA Red Mist Autokhana Series 1 2012 - June 24th

[senn]

Whiteline swaybars just rocked up, damn they're solid pieces of kit. 24mm of solid adjustable goodness.

Gonna laugh at you when it's pissing down and the new parts make no difference cos there's no grip hahaha

Don't mind me I'm just jealous cos I have to spend money getting the daily back on the road instead of fun stuff

[RA35GT]

Did someone say rain dance?

[Sciflyer]

nooooooooo

[Mole]

Now also have new lower control arms and camber tops

Just need to book it in.

Also did a RAC/AHG day yesterday... was interesting as I now have very little rear end grip in comparison to front (swapped tyres around), so it likes to get tail happy now but its so easy to correct... should be interesting.

[senn]

Now running less toe and more camber. Even feels grippier on the ratshit worn out road tyres. Hope it stays dry, but not holding my breath.

[GeneSPIDA]

I'm off to Broome for 2 weeks holiday, but a heads-up that this will be coming-up shortly, so after a slight break in proceedings I hope people are getting ready to get revved-up again.

Let the trash talk begin hahaha ;D

Sorry won't be there for this one - already entered in a cycling event.
Mullet - bring me back a suitcase of '86 goodies please
I now have diff side seals sitting on my desk as well!

[Nikkojoe]

I should be there but not in the 86, looks like the mighty is200 will make a slow debut

But if anyone knows where I can get a w58 rubber mount and an ra40 front half of tail shaft from I can get my 86 ready for the last round

[Mole]

Entry sent in, payment made for another double.

Car goes in Monday for service ($400 freaking dollars! stupid VW with its fancy computers) and suspension work, so it'll be all settled in and ready for the Khana Even if its raining it'll make a big difference.

Edit: I has the negatives. -2.25 Camber that is muahaha! Mind you they didn't adjust the castor very well... (~7.5 vs ~8.1 side to side) or even thought you could (theres about 2-3mm of adjustment on the tops for castor, fk all but enough), so now I need to get another alignment oh well, guess that happens when randoms do your alignment. But still, they did fix up a 5mm toe out on the front right... which just so happens to be the tyre that keeps getting fried haha.

I'm guessing it's you on ft86club.com?

If so, congrats!

Hopefully I'll be joining the club soon too

Hah yeah it is. Although I wont be getting mine till december by the looks of it! (come on tmca, make less auto's and gt's but more manual gts'!)

I gotta start saying ae86 for the old one and 86 when I talk now (or maybe call it zn6)

[GeneSPIDA]

A reminder that the Autokhana is on Sunday week, so get those entries and payments in by mid next week thanks.

Gene

PS - An old AE86, and new 86? Do you guys have them on order already or something?

50/50 making this one now, but will try to make it.

And yeah I placed an order on Monday for November/December delivery. Need to follow it up and make sure its 100% official, otherwise it could be 2013 built car :/ Will be using it for autokhanas next year

[ra23celica]

Congrats.
It will be good to see who debut's their new 86 first in our autokhana's.

We have to get someone there capable of beating Mole, his Golf is already a rocketship, and he is getting more 'go faster' bits for it all the time! :-)
