G'day all,

Just thought I'd let you know of an upcoming car event which might be of interest to some and looks to be a great weekend away.

Safe Drive Training are running an event named "State of Origin Grudge Match" and is basically an event similar to Dutton Rallies and Indy Rally and targeted at car enthusists from both Queensland and New South Wales. This all happens at the best possible time being right in the middle of the Rugby League State of Origin so plenty of rivalry going on and pride at stake. The event is made up of numerous speed tests such as motorkhanas, hillclimbs, skidpan and straight line sprints and entry fees include accommodation and food, making this very competitively priced against other rallies.

They are looking for around 20-25 people per team/state and require a minimum of 15 per team for the event to go ahead. Time is running out fast, so if you are even remotely interested in entering and would like further info check out http://www.sdt.com.au/GRUDGE.htm or email Tahlia Simmonds (Event Manager) at [email protected] asap.

Something tells me Queensland has it in the bag, but if you think otherwise, well then......... :D

Ohhh if those guys get their registrations in soon it should make for an interesting competition. I heard the QLD team so far is alot of EVOs and a beema and a few others. Still waiting for more registrations to finalise the teams tho!!

That R34 should given a run for their money! :/

pfft sif. dreaming :worship:

we have a couple of nsw-ers entering including a ful sic 34 gtr :spank:

are any of you guys heading down?

If that R34 is Me duncan, I hight have an issue, I need to be NZ on the 10th June so I dont think I can make it, but my house at Soth West rocks is still available if needed.

Yeah, I wish it was like that, but I have been working hard since I was 17 and Im a tight ass. My dad said buy property and eventually you can buy cars, not the other way round. I drove sh!t box's for the first 15 years, only now can I enjoy the lines!

Funny enough he was right!

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
