Seriously it's the best fun ive even had and gives you a great feel for how far your car will go before over or under steering. Oh yer and if the pictures dont provide the explanation heaps of hanging sideways... :)

in the half day how long are you likely to be on the skid pan for?

Last time i went there was 11 cars and we had 4 runs each x 15 odd minutes and some people got a fifth run for an extra 10 odd minutes... This was a morning session only...

Varies i guess and depends on the crowd... :D I'd be expecting that those that go in the half and half session still have the same quota as others just spread over 2 sessions but if the chance comes up for extra runs you have a better chance of more track time.

i've seen the dvd's... better off doing your own (camera work is not good). but the rest of the day is great....

Others have similar thoughts... I didn't mind it, but i wished there was a little more thats all... I am hoping to have the guy there for about the same amount of time but covering both sessions so there will be plenty of cars.

Lemi know and i can get you a copy of our last one... Well i'll get it to the dude that hasn't seen one before... :D

So is there any more takers???

Put me down as interested/temp/fill in - The only reason I haven't jumped in is because I'm still waiting for some race calendars to come out and don't want to miss a good race.

Is this with Dereck or someone else? Does the price drop for group bookings if you have a full house?

Yer this is one with Dereck, you got it... :(

No probs, Ill put you down as "interested but not confirmed". Just keep in mind payment is due by 2nd September. On the topic of payment the price is staying at $125 untill i have a confirmed answer about the DVD package and BBQ. So far it looks like we are getting one and the BBQ will get funded from that so there is no worries for anyone (Well besides me that is :rofl: .

If there is any probs like it doesn't happen ill certainly give you your extra money back either on the day or electronicaly when i find out.

Okay, please count me in. Derecks terrific!

I can't see in the thread how much the DVD package is going to be, have I missed something somewhere?

Cheers

It's $125 Total at this stage including the DVD package.

I will be seeing Dereck tomorrow at the skidpan in the morning so ill be getting him to confirm the availability of the camera guy for the DVD.

If there is any more questions feel free to give me a call. 0420 944 263

Cheers

If theres 10 cars in each session, probably will get around 3 x 15 minute sessions.

People that have expressed interest or in for sure.

Is this still the case? I guess it's just a reminder the payment is due in 7 days.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • 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.
