As usual, Bass has always stole the show :ban:. Nice big burnt out give us import drivers some credit toward the guys who runs Heathcote.

After Bass ripped a big burnt out, the guy who set the timer for the Chrismas Tree said something like " ...thanks God, i've waiting for something like this all day " :D.

I just couldn't understand why most of the rear wheel drive that were there would not rip a nice burnt out even though it was a basic technic.

lol

I think its because at the start of the day Ash told everyone that burnouts on street tyres aren't useful

i did a few bigger burnouts in the second half of the day (the christmas tree guy did seem to enjoy it a lot when anyone did a decent one)...I think it helped a little to get some heat into the street tyres, I had some good 60ft times with doing it, but only .1 kinda better....but no good if you went overboard, then it just wheelspun more off the line.

Petes big burnouts were ok on his slicks...they need good heat in em to grip best. Also good to watch!!

Anyone no the name of the guy who did his timing belt on the way there ..

might try get hold of him see how he went getting it home..

He has a white R33 it was on the side of the road at Heathcote..

espo (craig)

Jack picked up the car on the way back with dezz's car as well

Top work all, a great day.

Huge thanks to Tuspeed for their support too :ban:

These inter-club events are really great fun - especially with such a good turnout!

And I'm ashamed to say I think I had more fun challenging John's Tarago than I did punching out 12s in the GT-R :D

We'll have to do this again.

BTW: Poite - I'm tired and grumpy and cannot be assed taking the trailer back to outer whereversville right now. Will drop it off with your tyres later in the week. Let me know if a problem.

His name was Craig....not sure of his username though. thought it was timing belt trouble...he had it changed only 2000km ago.

Your car looks like it had more power than a standard R33 unless you had a good set up? Sound nice as well, you were wheel spin through second gear through pretty much half of the track lol, must be track temp.

Pete got his 12, nice! What time did you run Aaron? What about Jack?

best time was an 11.74 with a 60 foot somewhere around 1.75 seconds. RE55s needed. The takeoff looks like it is on cement, dunno. Was more slippery than a normal road. Not bad for a stocker.. :ban:

Thanx guys and girls for another fantastic inter club day. It's awesome that our 2 clubs can get together and have a awesome event....it speaks volumes for the members. Bring on DECA!!!!! :P

And very suprisingly that the Skyline's were the ones with broken gearbox's and no WRX gearbox trouble!! :ban:

Thanx to Tuspeed for the sponsership of the day... :D

Can't wait to see Joel's pic...got to love camera on a stick!!!! :D

mines about 235kw/610Nm....so no, not quite standard :ban: slicks an softer rear suspension should see better times...

but yeah...traction was a big issue in second gear for me...

Hey all - hope everyone had a great day - I did - weather held off, cruise up there was great (for that time of the morning) and the air was nice and cool for turbos and lots of runs for everyone... pity I was too busy chatting and not running. There was some great times posted - especially with Team Lada nearly breaking into the 20's. Good to catch up and chat with a bunch of you guys as well. And the only gearbox casualty from the day was from a Skyline..... I would have lost money on that one :P

Anyway - big thanks to the guys involved in setting everything up - great having the two clubs working together to put on something like today.

Here's a few pics that I grabbed...

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
