The spin around turn 2 was incredibly scary... Pretty sure I left some fruit in my loins... ;)

Can I still drive you car at lala sometime? :P RB30 power ahoy!

i'll get out there one day and u can show me how to drift (cars almost ready for grip, just need to get my diff in and oil cooler)! the three 32's looked good though in the team drift! ye that 31 did have them issues just like every other import 31 i know but he did a good job with the car he had!

thats pretty damn good, the wheelworx boys weren't doin too bad either!

yeah what a dissapointing weekend for DCR, we had issues with the car all weekend.... somewhere in the 10yo factory GTR loom is an evil power robbing wiring gremlin.... car would not rev over 5000rpm consistantly.... bring on the next round.

i was suprised she qualified mid field with such a misbehaving car .....

It was a good show, I cant believe i made it down in such short notice but it was worth it :P

Well done Simon it was good to see you out there in the flesh and its only the start of more to come in the world of D.A

yeah Easto has plenty of talant but seriously his car is way too slow in the grip department, it just squats and bags the rears, no real corner speed.

Wish i had me an RB30 package :P

was talkin to easto late on sunday, the talk is for retro-fitting an R33 diff and cradle under the back of the Black Pearl :P

smokeshow aplenty from the 31 brigade (and in SLY's case, Bee*R limiter abuse aplenty)

Got a whole heap of video and 200 pics to upload now that i hav my computer back

If anyone's interested, here are some other people's pics from the weekend taken from NS.com including an article about the weekend.

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
