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. ;)

    • 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.
