btw - i hit the drags tons.

You wont need any licenses etc.

Just make sure you have helmet and long sleeved clothes and long sleeved pants.

The $36 Entry fee or whatever includes 1 pit crew as well, so thats 1 spectator. So sort that out so someone is in with each person and it all gets cheap.

These days you can easily expect 10 runs if you want it....

You clutch won't be ready for pick up until tuesday arvo so I can get it done on Wednesday for you.

As long as you give it 50km or so of easy driving to bed it in...you won't have a drama. Like I said...it's like a super sports organic so you won't have any problems with it. If you drop it in first thing on Wednesday I should have it ready to go for you before 11.

I also need a helmet but seeing as though I have such a doofus head, I am going to borrow one of a mate.

Looks like next wednesday might be the go for everyone at this point so I guess we'll make it then. Tomorrow is probably too little notice for everyone and I don't wanna head out unless I have someone there I know that might be able to drive me home when the g/box explodes lol.

Was there the week before last. Entry fee for racers: $36 per car( driver+1 spectator), Driver must wear long sleeves and long pants, plus a helmet. Actually you can share 1 between 2 cars, I did that last time since I dont have one. Just tell the lady you will share the helmet with ur friend.

should be about the same price for 2 spectators.... So I reckon go there and race better than just watch. Wednesday would be a better choice, since Fri would be more cars there. Last time, I was able to get at least 8 runs, but gave up after the sixth, since my car's so slow........ Will talk to you soon, Dan.

No problem dan.. i'll still head out to support those running tho, wouldn't wanna lean on teh new clutch too much. PM sent about clutch booking too ;)

Not sure what size my helmet is, think its an XL/ 60cm give or take a cm or so..

I might be popping out there for this, give the sedan its first run down the strip. Most likely on the Friday, might be the end of the clutch though. . . . . oh well ;)

I will aim for a low 14, should be able to get the stocko down there somewhere.

I'm in for Wednesday!! And Dan I have a boof head and a good helmet if you want to share?? No cooties.... honest....

Oh, the car is fixed and it cost a lot less than I expected!! Cracked manifold and 3 sheared bolts!! All better now and runs even better!!

I could be interested for Wednesday..really want to see what the car can do before the new turbo ect! Hmmm what time do I want???? I guess for my first run I would be happy with making it to the end LOL

Thought it might be Dave. When I got mine it had the same thing and apparantley its a common thing for RB25s. They run sooo much better when its all fixed up. . . . which is to be expected I suppose.

Mine, the crack went right around and when I tapped it on the ground it broke in half!

    • TBH, it sounds like the threads on the bolt are fubar in a specific section. Most likely as you've been working it back and forth it has torn threads out, as you loosen the bolt, this section enters the nut, now you're spinning a round shaft inside the nut, there's no threads here.   Use something similar to a claw on a hammer that will fit either side of the bolt head and try to apply downward force while also undoing it. The idea is to attempt to catch a thread, or just rip the f**ker out. Caution on ripping out, as it could bend/maime/mangle what the captive nut attaches to. If the captive nut is actually okay, you could do the dirty part of cutting the head off the bolt, then cut a slit in the end of the thread that's now exposed and then screw it up and into the area the captive nut is until it falls out the other side. However, this does risk the remainder of the bolt rusting over time and damaging near the captive nut and also making it rust. However, so can cutting pieces of panel work out to access this area if you don't reseal it properly.
    • Well, every piece of information on that part when you track it back to Nitto says it's for a KIT of theirs. It is also designed thicker to be stronger. And they speak about a specific harmonic balancer bolt they supply for the whole setup.
    • Techniques for removing stuck bolts are: hitting the bolt head with a hammer, heating the bolt to red hot then letting it cool and working it back and forth like you are already doing. AFAIK the idea is to try to crush whatever material is stuck between the threads (and heat also melts locktite but that's almost certainly not relevant in this case).
    • Yuh, I think it works with the Nitto gear only. I presume that you're not also using the Nitto gear? Watch the video. Compare the interface between the Nitto gear and washer (on the gear side) vs the stocker and decide if you think the Nitto gear is different from stock there.
    • Liking the new charger, battery all good (I think).   Also like how you can put it in power supply mode too. Will troubleshoot with that sometime soon.
