Hey Tim was it your car that won? I missed the name of the winner, just got the rego? There must be pics around, I'm surprised there have not been more posted up already?

looks good, I'll be sure to be at a few, if only swinging spanners

haha I love your threads terry. so random. have you been dwelling on this for 23 years? they gave up on planes long ago. cameras on poles are soooo much cheaper

great thread over on japanesenostalgiccar.com Kevin, you did a great job capturing most of the most interesting/rare cars. One you may not have known about is the white 32 you caught in the gtr pic is a genuine N1 spec as well. It was great to have so many rare cars there - thraso's R33 LM spec was another great example.

muahahaha! I thought it as a "show n shine" not "scratch and sniff"! I've had hge overheating problems recently and have had coolant shoot everywhere under the bonnet.....I did clean most of it off the visible bits but the smell is EVERYWHERE! Had it up to 122o at one stage but its still going strong

goddamn noisey dino-line! re classes - only 6 of the 19 were open to non-skylines, and in the end only 2 or 3 of them were won by non-liners. I saw the audi and thought the exterior was excellent. i guess we could have different rules next time, but while it is a skyline focussed show it's not skylines only - just like we are a skylines enthusiast club not a skyline owners club. to be honest, the bitching about winners (and it happens every single time) makes me prefer a show with no awards at all. immediately stops all the unhappiness as well as saving the judges running around all day on a hiding to nothing.

you read this thread first right? ABS was an option in both series although it is extremely common

this car looked absolutely amazing. i hope someone got some engine bay pics too

yes

thanks to everyone that helped out today (and there were heaps of you....and I didn't remember everyone ) couldn't have pulled off such a big show without you guys!

bloody hell, return to the 80s! I feel like it's back to the future! bloody car was built before the invention of the curve I think..... good pics guys, but I bet there are hundreds more to come yet! factory highmount goodness! nissan had some genuine lunatics working for them in the late 80s.

hey same! it was great to see so many stageas there. thanks to everyone that came along - not surprisingly the stagea section had a decidedly family/low key feel! the car that won was a clean, straight car but I also thought it was great to see a few with some good mods too. I spotted mine at 2.30am this morning when we gave up and admitted it wouldn't be ready. It is running but just too many jobs to get there. But man am I looking forward to getting it back in the next few days - there is nothing sensible about it

no way! I saw 140 clean + shiney skylines (plus matt's one) at Fairfield showground today. Literally everything from KGC10 to R35

Thanks everyone for coming along, we had 150 cars in the end which was miles more than the last show we ran. And I reckon it was a brilliant mix of normal, race and show cars there too. Also thanks everyone for your understanding in getting there on time and supporting the long day - some of the judging took a little long and things were running a little late but we were trying to make sure we got it all right. Watch out for the upcoming overage of the event in HPI who were good enough to come along for the day anyway off to bed....6 hours sleep in 2 days means I am stuffed!

indoor! or at least undercover. i need to be there in 4.5 hours so I think its time for sleep. see ya'll tomorrow!

sure is there are limited numbers so please contact organisers when you check into the show

Juvenile off topic comments removed and user warned. Expect to be banned if you continue off topic. Thanks to everyone who is offering to help out on the day. We are expecting up to 200 cars to be entered (twice the size of our largest previous show), so we really appreciate anyone who can arrive early on sunday and help with the marshalling of the cars, and also helping during the show. Sunday is going to be huge so we need all the help we can get!

that's probably it....it sits under the bracket where the standard boost solenoid is, and has 7 wires from memory, 1 in, 6 out to the various injectors.

nissan seel bare heads cheap - about 800 from memory

oh that sucks hard! need bigger brakes?

everyone's forms have made it! faxes can nevah be beaten! Please do not mail or send EFT payments after today as we may not receive them by the end of the week. If you have not entered yet please fax the entry form and you can sort out payment on the day.

12psi - all turbo cars run a pop off valve to ensure they run standard boost. The whole point of production car racing is to show cars competing on manufacturer spec.

well....mine has exactly the same mods allowed as the other cars I race against - exhaust, ecu and shocks/springs can be changed. So yes it has some minor changes to make it trackworthy, but the other cars have exactly the same freedoms.

Well come on out to the NSW production car champs. There are standard commodores (300kw, 6.0l), evos, wrxs, falcon fpv, and my poor old 20yo gtr running around. The GTR has not been beaten in a race it started (I only did the first 2 rounds). http://www.ctcnsw.com.au/reports.php We have 6 rounds next year between Wakefield, Eastern Creek and Bathurst. As for 32 v 33 v 34 stock for stock.....each of them made 206kw and the 32 was lighter. Sure the factory spec 32 is quicker. Of course there is very little stock (or even if stock not in good original condition) still getting around these days.

The good ones are excellent. Battery life with regular use is pretty shithouse in my experience (think 1 or 2 sets of wheels then the torque starts to drop off) but they are very flexible and convenient for occasional use. Wish I had the coin for one
