Good to see you back in a dato mate!

I had the ratio changed in my steering box when I had it rebuilt, if I remember correct it went from 2.75 turns lock to lock to 1.5 turns.

I haven't driven it with the new box yet, but I look forward to it.

now that's interesting - I've sent you a pm mate!

No i haven't still got my coupe, pranged it, stripped and sold a fair bit of it, have another project underway. i have another coupe fully stipped and starting from the ground up, so i don't inherit other peoples problem. Going to be fully CAMS approved and have a fire breathing 200+ rwkw CA18det, i'm hoping to have that ready well before the datsun nationals in Qld, i heard its at morgan park as oposed to QR, thats a good idea, less stressfull on the cars

I also have a 1000 now with a blow-through turbo, u probably seen the pics, i'm really pleased with that! pity i wasn't still living up there in sunny QLD, i would've brought it out to the hill climb, ah well............. you get that!

good to hear from you!

Yeah , i would love to Do a Hillclimb , or a come and try day they have ,when i 1st got into motorsport i did 6 yrs of dirt Hillclimbs and they are some much fun with out wearing out the car to much ,the Noosa Hillclimb is my dream to do actually what a top track ,Hmm Any way the next event for me is Pittsworth .

I'm still trying to work out what my next event will be. Not sure on Pittsworth. Looking at a couple of hillclimbs at Grafton and Kempsey.

MGCCQ have a Come and Try Morning & Test and Tune Afternoon at Mt Cotton on Sunday, 30th September. You can get more info from mgccq@mgccq.org.au. They're always popular, so it might pay to register interest early.

I'll be there for the test in the afternoon trying to get a handle on the car before he Australian Hillclimb Championships in Nov. [EDIT: might not be there actually. I just realised there is a hillclimb event the week before this test] The AHC is my best chance to run a really good time in this car - the 2 day events get alot of rubber down on the track
