Well,

As i'm currently watching the Cannonball 2004 Europe, I just looked up and they are actually running the Cannonball Run in Australia - around May 2007..

http://www.cannonballworld.com/aus/index.htm

Goto say - pretty expensive.. $10,000 per car (1 car = 2 people).. Includes all accomodation... all entry to parties..

Looks awesome from the Europe one, however aussie police are not gonna let much slide i'm sure.. Def have to go and watch it when they start if they head through Sydney..

Anyone thought about entering it??

It can't be that cheap? (EDIT: I mean... for the celebrities and types of cars that normally enter, it's too cheap! Ferrari Enzo? I'm sure he did it with his pocket-change!)

I'm starting to watch the 2006 eps now (up to ep2)

Last years was pretty funny, and Jackass covered a previous year.

I'd be pretty interested to see it over here in 2007... i'm sure someone with an R34 GTR V-spec II can represent! ;o)

no.. I agree... Unless it's on a stretch of dirt road in NT where there are no speed limits, and no-one else to harm.

It would be funny though! They can do Parramatta Road or Pittwater Road on the Northside.

The wheels and shocks will fall of the cars, and they'll never make it through two sets of lights at a time. Then they have our tougher, more restrictive police force to recken with. Hello 40km/hr school zones!

Har, they'll roll past the donut shop and get defected by the rozzers, then it'll turn into Epaballrun.

it would be better for us to do it overseas, these blokes would come over here not giving a shit about losing a temp aus road licence, pay there fines and piss off back to there own country.... sweet.....

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
