  1. Site updates

    As our forum posts have covered, we are hitting the limit with our current host, so this month is going to be a bit all over the place, with little downtime hopefully.... however, it seems some DNS servers still haven't updated, which doesn't mean much because some users probably won't see this blog anyway

    This month we will be going to our own private server, rather than being on shared hosting. The procedure will be done at night, and hoping its all done by the morning, and DNS ...

  2. Getting ready to head down to PI for the WRX Club track day.....

    Had the car dyno'd as a baseline for upcoming modifications. I took it down to Melbourne Performance Centre for a quick run on their dyno down there. From a half dozen different runs, it came back with different figures. Lowest was 144 rwkw, and best was 168rwkw. I had expected somewhere around 160-odd rwkw's so happy with it as it sits.

  4. Tomorrow is the day....

    The e36 now has a S50 as its heart, with the m52 hopefully being sold off soon. I took it for a quick spin today to get its livery done for tomorrows event at Calder with the WRX Club and their twilight sprints out at Calder Raceway.

    The S50 pulled and pulled, so fingers crossed all is good for tomorrow night. The engine came out of a front cut and is stock as a rock for the time being. I wanted to try and get it on the dyno today, but time didn't permit, so I know nothing of how ...

  5. Our first Blog Post....

    Well, the upgrade went ok, a few hiccups, but it got there in the end. Just waiting on some updates and then we should be back to normal. The look and feel of ECCA should be restored in the next few days as I get a grip on the new settings, and write up a how-to on new features for the users.
