(Thanks Owen) available HERE (Click me baby) Those of you that have been to one of these before will agree, this is the best money you can spend as far as driving time for an event. The event will be run after run until 4.30pm, and considering most runs are under 1 minute AND that we're kicking off at 9am, that's a lot of runs This is a safe event where you only go as hard as you want to, there's no pressure, one car on a course at a time. Perfect for beginners to have a first try at driving their pride and joy off the streets. With that said, there's usually some friendly competition between mates, which is great to watch Timing for the day; Scrutineering/sign on starts 7.00am Scrutineering/sign on ends 8.30am (don't show up at 8.25am, come with plenty of time to spare) Drivers brief 8.40am (mandatory attendance all drivers) Runs start 9.00am Lunch approx 12.30pm depending on how the day is going (One hour) Runs stop 4.45pm Gates close 5.00pm Entrants please note: -All entered cars must arrive in time for and pass scrutineering, no exceptions. -All drivers must be licensed (AASA or CAMS) and show valid licence and expiry date at sign on. -All cars must have an insurance approved fire extinguisher secured within drivers reach. -Sidepipes are not allowed.

Hey All, Thought I would keep track of my build and take advantage of some of the internets wisdom. The base car, Factory manual rb20e laurel in all its boaty glory First purchase was the iconic hood emblem followed by some more appropriate wheels, 15x6.5 weds albinos Now to where im at now, Decided the 20e just wasnt providing the punch the car deserved, so in comes a gtst 20det. Also managed to pick up some s13 suspension to solve boaty issue, Cusco adjusties all round seem to have solved the ride height. Now heres where i ask for your help, Realisticly can i expect the factory 20det turbo to function without the watercooling installed? Plan is to not run it for long but i would hope for more than a few hours of life.
