the local paper said it was announced earlier in the week that the management rights to Lakeside Raceway has been given to QR. So while I don't think that's the best result for club motorsport in the reigon - QR have basically priced their track out of the reach of Sporting Car Clubs to run events on Weekends so they can run Sprints themselves and pocket the profits - it will at least mean we'll get access to the circuit again, and state level racing should be back on the calendar for Lakeside. I can't believe it after all the years its been closed! Best news I've heard in a long time! But the track and the facilities are only protected until 2010 under the deal done by PRSC and the QLD Heritage Council, so we may not have all that long to enjoy it - once May 2010 comes around, council can move in with the bulldozers if they want to.

I shouldn't have sold my IPRA Datsun... may have to build another car to get out there and race while the opportunity is there. and there is a HR30 coupe in the carport doing nothing...

Yeh tetley told us about it a few weeks ago at the last Top gear at QR. Said hopefully by may next year we will be racing there doing sprints and proper racing again. Im not fussed over who got the rights to it, the fact that there is now another track going to be available to race on is awesome and so close to. Running at just QR and MP can get abit mundane unless you want to travel further. All in all its excellent news.

Im looking forward to it. Its only 10 mins away from work here at Brendale.....hooray :)

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
