Dont compare WSID surface to WB's, That track has teeth.

didnt Ben run 9's last year in SRWD on radials but got booted because of a hood lining or something??

I dont think I will be running at my best based on last week...

What has the silvia run?

so the mph seems down a bit???

Probably took some bite out of the clutch, also with turbo cars crap 60 foot -> higher trap speeds. One thing people were commenting about how Kiwi cars normally bog or break at Jambo, if Reece has got his clutch mastered then it should make for some incredible times (like the 7's already). The other cars that came out here and had issues didn't have the benefit of a proper slider clutch setup.

WB is the king when it comes to broken drive line components.......if the boys have done a good track prep(and they usually do), then start line will destroy a few cars this weekend.

WB = Tyranasuarus TEETH......

If any intestaters need somewhere to crash and Adrian can vouch for them Iv got a unit in the city (also have a workshop near city too which may be handy)

When I snapped an axle in the semi I had a bit of a "punch shit out of the steering wheel in frustration" moment :)

Hahaha, tis all good, ive had to straighten mine after a red light once ;)

already booked and paid for Terraces on Wickham, Wickham terrace Brisbane good central point as I will be travelling to willowbank for the two days but also to the Goldcoast and also upto the Sunshine coast whilst there.

After some thought im gonna run blacky... It wont go fast enough but ive already entered so 3 qualifying runs = me having more time in the car getting comfortable with the new setup rather than trying to kill myself on the bike :P First time ever running the v8 down the strip at Jambo!! fark yeah!

    • 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.
