im guessing u'rs was the 33 with the only SAU stickers on it i was hopeing to chat to you day but missed u due to the dyno.

altho show was below standed. semi we got to put in abig club display. the only 1/2 decent club display was allure and obseive.

trader standes were down. so was the dyno with only one dyno, and the amount of cars.

went today to offer LTHL some "support"....

as always pretty crappy.. nothing really outstanding.. except for all the fully sick fluro shirts and crazy hairstyles... some people should be shot.

I did like the bikes though.

Went today.. while down melbourne for the weekend.

Must say, was missing cars, no GT-R's. A few GTS-T.

The 180 made a new record. 251kw/ltr.

and overall hp too.

Saw the Supra on the dyno. 726.1KW? I think. Below last years. He made 749KW last year?

STEVEM's S15 was very nice.

The gold plated turbos in the QSR BMW was big. The car took away more then 8 Trophies.

Overall, lacked in girls and cars.

Bike display was low too. There were more parked outside of the centre then inside.

Ah well... see what happens...

Whens the finals?

Saw LTHL's car and looked around for the owner but couldnt find him. Was gonna introduce myself after seeing the SAU stickers.

My fav car was probably a blueish 180. Looked insane. The guy went all out as well. The words 180 and Nissan were all over the car. He even managed to get the word "nissan" in the middle of his subwoofer. Very nice.

Was hoping to see more skylines. Saw both the holder and the supra dyno runs. Pretty damn crazy.

Well the bikes were more than last year, of which there were none :(

So the bikes that were there actually caught my eye quite well.

Was a good addition

Finals are Nov

yeah was my first AS in a couple years and i found the standard was really awesome.

Couple cars that stood out was the

Series 5 RX7 with the supra abflug kit, looked awesome. As well as the ABFlug supra sitting next to it with the airbrushing (tasteful airbrushing)

The baby blue wrx with suicide doors and hydraulics...

And the new Euroline car club made a good impression at the entrance.

Seemed to me a lot less rice and more performance than 2 years ago when I went last.

Euroline Automotive was a trade stand, they do bodykits / custom paint jobs etc..

But yes they had a good set up.

My friends Blue Kitted RX8 was with their stand.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
