i was just thinking the same thing. if fatz doesnt get in i'll boycott. i think this event held so much promise, but so far has delivered so little.

also 600hp, do you own a car/skyline? It's just i've heard about your fathers nice GTR and your brothers wrx, but i never hear about your own stuff? just curious. :rolleyes:

absolutely, and even if they put a competant race driver in the (as opposed to a drag racer) it stil won't replace years of circuit car development. If the BSM motorsport production car is at 1.09 and improved prod at 1.07 there will not be a bunch of cars at 1.05

The 1.07 is with the mandatory Improved Production 27mm turbo inlet restrictors in place. It would be a bit faster without them, but as Roy said, Wakefield is a handling track more than a power track.

:P Cheers :laugh:

Russ - you suck. Your car is way too fast now.

Anyways - back on topic - Autosalon just called me to say I was in and that it is on Thursday March 30th. I had to tell them I couldn't make it due to Grand Prix commitments.

He did go on to tell me that they would be holding another one later in the year however and I'll get an invite to that. Hopefully it's not on AFL Grand Final day or something.

YEAH BABY!

damn i wish it wasnt on GP weekend, as i'll be in melbourne :D Otherwise i would break out the bikini and come and stand next to your car so you dont look out of place. plus i am heap hotter than most of the models the other blokes hire.

good luck pete. if you dont win just keep driving south to canberra and re-settle there as we wont want you back.

i cant see how anyone else would do a better burnout, but you may find in a circuit battle, that biggest smoke show is not one of the awards on offer...

Did anyone get the name of the guy and a contact number from Autosalon? I'm thinking of changing my mind....

:)

Its 724km's from my place to Wakefield. I reckon I could drive up Wed - do this Thurs and drive back Friday and GP on Sat and Sun. Now that the 300 is in I really want to come. LOL

Bris - looks like Wakefield is open for practise on the Wed. Since I've never seen the track before I might head up on the Tuesday now.

Just have to try and source a trailer and see if I can get the leave passes then it'll be on. Might try and get Chris and entry too. He did just come 2nd in the Calder Rally Masters so he should be good enough. I'm sure he'll be faster than any Zeds there.

How could you miss this one Snowman. Fatz how did they let you in anyway did they need a example or something. You are bound to be a crown pleaser. I think it is timed only event not show or drift, so better change hats or try and reprogram. You Will NOT be popular fi you put dirt all over the track. Actually you go after me would be real good.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By Duncan · Posted

      some days eh? The keyless entry and interior light on/off with the key will be controlled by the Body Control Module, but I'm not certain where that is or what it looks like (you might get lucky with a search to get a part#, which could be printed on it). I'd start at the A pillar/ Under dash/kick panel on the driver's side

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Duncan · Posted

      It might be hit and miss, but Nissan Genuine Parts and Pitworks are not the same thing, although both are available from Nissan Dealers with Nissan Part Numbers. Nissan Genuine Parts are the OEM stuff, Pitworks are their attempt to get people back from generic parts makers

      R32 Skyline Interior Door Light Issue

      By DominusUniversi · Posted

      I did end up getting it sorted, as GTSBoy said, there was a corroded connection and wire that needed to be replaced. I ended up taking out the light assembly, giving everything a good clean and re-soldered the old joints, and it came out good.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Wow, thanks for your help guys 🙏. I really appreciate it. Thanks @Rezz, if i fail finding any new or used, full or partial set of original Stage carpets i will come back to you for sure 😉 Explenation is right there, i just missed it 🤦‍♂️. Thanks for pointing out. @soviet_merlin in the meantime, I received a reply from nengun, and i quote: "Thanks for your message and interest in Nengun. KG4900 is for the full set of floor mats, while KG4911 is only the Driver's Floor Mat. FR, RH means Front Right Hand Side. All the Full Set options are now discontinued. However, the Driver's Floor Mat options are still available according to the latest information available to us. We do not know what the differences would be, but if you only want the one mat, we can certainly see what we can find out for you". Interesting. It seems they still have some "new old stock" that Duncan mentioned 🤔. I wonder if they can provide any photos......And i also just realized that amayama have G4900 sets. I'm tempted too.
