muhahahah i love that footage, it goes OK doesn't it? he's grabbing 5th before I grab 4th on the straight.

i think i need more herbs :P

LOL...i was watching some footage of me around Wakefeld the other week...its kinda sad how slow it is :huh: I would post it up if i knew how to get vid to mpeg etc

c'mon peoples. this is gonna be a kick ass week away in up nsw.

take time off your jobs and come and get away, you all have annual leave i know it. ive got like over a month of annual leave backed up so lots of you should have some as well. we are even visiting a certain workshop in sydney on the thursday which should be good and educational as well :(

Any track would be fun in your car. Wakefield is fun for everyone. EC is probably only fun if you play A Grade :thumbsup:

Eastern creek is a fast track in comparison to Wakefield with lots of blind corner moments and crests which try to unsettle your car. Turn one is damn fun at 180 to 200 klicks as you find the limits of adhesion of your tyres.

Come on all you will have a great time up here in NSW.

Still say you need a good turn of power and a decent car under you to enjoy EC. I did a 1:56 on street tyres and std turbo ECU. Complete with 180km/h speed limiter. Its just no fun driving around a track liek EC with only 140rwkws and a speed limiter. :wave:

Wakefield on the other hand, is plenty og fun even if you dont have much car under you :ban:

So who's coming to EC?

Snowball:

For Eastern Creek comers please fill out the disclaimer and fax it to 03 9587 7563 to reserve your spot (1st 30 entries get priority). Again no payment is required until the day at Eastern Creek.

Need to fax your form, women.

Yep the red carpet will be out for you guys and no silly talk I am impressed with you guys and your track times. Eastern Creek will be a huge even by the looks of it. I don't think you guys Also I am looking forward to meeting Ben Race Pace and show and tell and discuss.

Roy your 1 min 56 would beat probably 80% of the GTR's times in Sydney.

EC is an awesome and fast track lots of run off and generally a safe track although not as safe as Wakefield. By the way most if not all the Sydney gang will be doing Eastern Creek only.

I'll update the list with who is actually coming so far.

It's a much smaller list now....

If you aren't on the list but think you should be - post up AND SEND ME YOUR DISCLAIMER (if your a driver)

Hey Snowy, have you received the disclaimer from trhe people on that list or is it just interest shown???

It's a shame Ben and Sam can't make it, oh well, the Sydney guys will have to deal with some of the 'slower' cars from Vic... :)

I am in and will be purchasing a CAMS licence in the coming week too. Am keen to take the car on the track up there so just need to ensure it is track ready now. Leave is booked and looking forward to the trip. ;)

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
