Im up for it, I was just getting into the calder drift practise days and now I cant, I would really like to see it continued because Its a form of motorsport that I enjoy competing in.

I know a quite a few other people (who are not on the forums/internet) that have been attending calder drift days for the past year regularly and who would do almost anything to get back into drifting on it, I was having a chat to one of my close mates whos really into It and he was very very dissapointed to hear that it was to be called off, not only that there are guys who have bought/built drift cars solely to be used on the track, Id imagine theyd be pretty upset.

Anyway, thats my 2c, good luck to anyone that can work something out, if I can be of help, please message me

Regards

Kim

Great to hear. I have had a number of emails about this and I would like to see more people b4 we organise to have our first meeting. Once you have sent your emails in you will be on the contact list.

You could use SAU as an already set up club with a committee and everything already worked out, and have a sub-club sort of thing to get licenses etc. Setting up a club for Cams Affilition isn't easy.....

Took the boys here a lot of work and there's a lot of stuff that needs to be sorted out.

Guys it seams like the fulllock website is down atm. If you would like my mates and I have been working on a tech site that has a forum. www.importworks.net go there register and that way we can get all the drifters in 1 spot until the club is sorted out

id be up for it, you might be able to try gippsland park hill climb track i know they dont have all that many events any more so they might be keen. people who want to legel srift should drive the 2 hours

Hey guys every vic drifter interested in this club needs to go to importworks.net and reg so that we can start things moving

Wow - I've never seen a forum so clean...

just a question though - whats wrong with here?

Though I hope you do get it up and running. I might even see you there....

Hey nothing is wrong with here. Its just that we had this post on NS/fulllock & here. So insted of running 3 different topics its easier to run 1 so that all of the drifters that are interested can meet there. Also the club isnt a part of SAU or NS so its a little unfair to use their forums for club business.

Ok we now have over 50 people interested in the club we are currently looking for a hall do have a meeting. We will keep you posted as to the date & time that the meeting will be on. Please remember that www.importworks.net is our first line of contact. So please reg.

It looks like we will be forming our own victorian club & not becoming an extention of another club this is due to a number of problems due to money & time. This means that we need a club name so can people please go to the web site and post up a club name so that we can take a vote on all of the different names at the first meeting.

Hey guys we have got a club site up now with everything needed on it. Please go to www.vicdrift.com and register. This site is where the info for the first meeting will be put up next week. So please reg & keep checking for updates

    • Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.  
    • Welcome Adam. Car looks great!
    • "With a 1.5-WAY, the LSD is effective only during acceleration."
    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
