lol I think my whole "off to NS" remark for newbies that jump on this forum with no clue or blatantly stupid ideas might be at the root of this issue (based on the fact that NS seems to have a lot more tolerance for em than we do).

not strocking my own cock, but I think once I said it a couple of times some of the postwhores sorta thought it was cool to do so as well.

Meh, I'm active on NS and I go to the meets and know most of the melb regs.... they're quite nice people once you get to know em :)

Heres how I look at it i have been to 1 sau skid pan day (enjoyed it although I had no idea what I was doing) & i have been running vicdrift for a year & been on NS for ages.

SAU - more professional outlook when it comes to cars and events but in my opinion takes a little bit of the fun away ie on the first day I didnt know many people and a few people just seemed to have a problem with the whole drift thing.

NS - every dedicated people behind the curtains but the people that draw the attention to NS are the wankers. Street drifting is BS. but hey it doesnt matter if people are driving imports or commonwhores. they are still going to do stupid shit.

thats the main difference as i see it. SAU really has the outlook of a professional motorsport club & thats what makes it good NS is for the younger age group that are more interested in giving it the boot and getting pulled over. This doesnt mean that anyone is better than the other.

finally on another note.

If you are interested in drifting go to www.vicdrift.com we are running heaps of events next year at winton & hopefully some basic days ( ;-) )

we also have an event on this weekend sat is vdc prac & then a private drift day on monday

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
