Steve,

Who told you there was lots of space left? I spoke to Lloyd who is organising it and he said there is very little space left inside, hence only being able to put around 6 cars in. If you have been told otherwise that's great and we should make a decision quickly so we can book.

If we have to have a display inside and out I say we put 6 of the best modified cars inside and do the full model run outside. At both displays we can have signs telling people about the other display.

Summoner,

It's at Belmont Racecourse again.

I have spoken to Lloyd and we have definately got a spot inside booked. They are going out to Belmont next week to measure it up for us and will let me know how much space we have. From that we can work out how many cars we can fit, what display we will do etc... We have to provide all power cords, extension cords etc. They need to be taped to the floor, all cars on display need to have a cover underneath them for any leaks etc. The cost is $50 per car, this includes entry in the Show n Shine, Dyno Comp and driving events. The driving events are optional and numbers are limited.

Outside we can have as much space as we like, and pretty much do as we like. If we want (and can afford) to put a marque up we can. In terms of security overnight they are looking in to it and will advise.

What we will do is work out what cars will go into the show and fill in all the entry forms and submit them together as a club.

As was suggested maybe inside we can go the workshop theme with modded cars, and outside have a big display showing the range of Skylines we have in the club. Off the top of my head I thought of this list for outside:

Jash's old skooler

R30's (2 door , 4 door)

R31's (2 door, 4 door)

R32 GTST

R32 4 door

R32 GTS4

R32 GTR

R33 GTST

R33 4 door

R33 GTS4

R33 GTR

R34 GTT

R34 4 door

R34 GTR

That's 16 I can think of, plus the cars inside would take the total to around 22ish.

I think we have most models covered except for R34 GTR, anyone know someone who is willing to donate one for the show?? Wouldn't have the same impact without it I guess...

I'm happy to host a meeting at my place to work things out. What we can also do is over a couple of weeks have each model turn up at a set place and we can as a group decide which is the best example to put in the show. Let me know what you guys think but we should get this underway as time will pass pretty damn quick.

One other thing that will need to be decided is if the club members will all donate towards the display, or only the entrants will..

Midweek or weekends are ok for me to host a first meeting.

Cheers

Brett

ok i'll lend you guys my R34 GTR... :P

but seriously, we should have a meeting to work out the details on which cars will be displayed on the inside and outside. however, it would be handy to confirm the amount of space that we are able to work with

Thanks Jeff, hope you didn't think I was assuming we would have your car, just using it as an example... :mad: What's with the missing 'TT' from the end of that engine type dude!!!! ha ha ha

Are you putting a C-Red display on or is GTAAH available, (maybe even big red if ya still got her??)

Yeah bought the Autech DE from JMS. I was going to build up a stroker L Series, but by the time I did the sums the 26 worked out better. Big Red's motor is in GTAAH yeh and Big Red will be sold either stock or with a pair of RX6s. We'll have a display on yeah.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU?

      Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too.

      Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.

      ATCC Amaroo Park 1987

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.
