Trying to get a heap of Skylines out to Wed nite test tune 1st March-plenty of warning for all those interested. It would be good to have a heap of Skylines grudge racing out there. could meet at BP Wacol first and have a gentle drive up to willowbank and then hit the strip in force. Love to see side by side Liners going down the strip all nite :lol:

Who is keen????

I'll chuck in some C16 and have a few runs in anger.

I'll even chuck in some prizes for Skyline lite of the nite(best reaction) and most consistant(closest ET's over all runs)maybe Razo gear knob and Greddy oil cap :P

Coming from the goldcoast ud be meeting at the goodna bp.

it is located:

as u come off the logan motorway and onto the ipswich motorway its on ur left about 1k up the road. take the left ater u go up the hill and over the little bridge (train station directly opposite bp)

LOL unfortunatlly RACQ dont go to willowbank for free km;s....

I got towed from the strip 2 years ago after smashing a uni joint... I had Silver membership with 40km for free and when i called they said there are no free km's from willowbank...

So i said i was out the front of willowbank and i me and mates pushed the car out the front past the gates...

When the tow truck driver got there he laughed as we went to the extra effort to get it for free.... In the end i did get free km's but it was touch and go....

BTW ill try to be ready for it... Im waiting on some adjustable caster rods to take the rear camber in a bit before drag racing... Otherwise id wheel spin all the way to 1/8th track....

Ok special deal here....I would like to come out to the test and tune night on the 1st but my g/box is almost cactus so I need it to last until I can gather a grand or so. Is there anyone who would be willing to pick me up and drop me off and I will be able to bring out the consult and some gear. That way you will be able to record your run and later view it to see any points that need adjusting or just a general view on WOT goings on. I can also assist people in changing parts if needed or mechanical advice on the night......anyone?

BTW I live in Capalaba

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
