problem with rotories is that you see one, you see them all.

all of them are pretty much the same engine, same sound, similar time, all of them can not idle, all in same chassis, rx2,3,4,7

at the beginning of the race, i was fine, but then really got sick of them aye...

LoL, but not trying to sound stupid dude. But how about R32, R33... Cause I sure as heck didnt see any R34s racing. Same engine, same sound, slower times, (bar one...) pretty much the same car even... Just pointing it out :nuke:

End of it all, the bikes got me, crazy barstards.

i have to agree with you on this one dave. most cars that race are alot a like in engine specs and stuff but that isnt the point of the jambo, its to watch the racing, perv on the hot women, ha ha

really if u wanted to see show cars i think autosalon is the place to be, me personally i go to jambo to watch the racing, that's the real shit right there.

I only goto jamboree to watch a few runs...cause after i see 2 or 3 i get bored and well the chicks hold ya attention longer...however heaps of companies there showing their stuff for sale...get to look at turbos and other performance parts...research for race car....real racing not the kind that lasts for a few seconds like a 15yr old kid having his first root.

I went both days and was a good turnout, sat was a way better day to go then sunday. Was good to see all in all and was lucky enough to see the world record pass by the heat treatments r32 gtr late sat afternoon/night, so that makes it a worth while trip for me. Was good to see so many fast cars, many in the consitant 7 second zone which realy says something about the sport, it's only getting bigger and faster. My persoanl fave's are, heat treatmetns r32 gtr @ 7.57 , gas motor sport camry @ 6.8 and mr mad in his insane twin turbo 2000hp torrana @ 6.8, and i saw all the fastest passes :happy: It was a pitty not to see that many quick skylines with many og the big players having gremlins, but thats racing for ya :(

i know i'm gonna get alot of people disagreeing with me here but i dont really think the girls was that special. The girls on stage i didnt think were model quality and there were a couple of hot promo girls but a few pretty average ones to. Sorry to any girls who read this and may be offended. If i saw them at any other time or place my jaw would probably drop but i couldnt get away from the cars. The sound and smell just kept me glued to the track lol

argh the ladies are an added bonus but the cars are the real stuff.

i just got the photo's off other various sites, bcoz there are alot of aw4esome inages of the cars and stuff on there, and no one has really posted many of the girls and cars in here. also i didnt have my cam with me it was in s.a. with my sister (GRRRRRRR)

anyway. good pics for the photographers, that is what they are there for, to share around and look at.

My car ran the highest MPH ever... but the gerabox is getting worse.. Ordered the powerglide today... should be around a month away... and should pretty much put the car straight into the 9's!! FARK YEAH!!!

Highest mph ever? Wouldnt that mean you would of had to got a really slow start and then gotten really quick really fast towards the end? I saw your car and it was damn quick and impressive but it was far from the quickest there. Sorry if that sounded insulting, your car was defintly a crowd pleasure. Actually i think crowd shocker is more the word. it was strange hearing a supercharged v8 come out of a skyline lol

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
