Once again the 8 hour drive was well worth the effort. Pizza Hut has a whole new image for me now and before Saturday night I've never seen dolphin fly (in one case with disasterous results). And the car part was fun too.

We hope you can make it up to our Texicahana and you can be assured that Team BTR will be back and much better than last time.

I dunno how long I can keep saying this but I reckon it's the biggest yet.....again :D I did say it was going to be a DECA of epic proportion and it didn't fall short buy any means. Was great to catch up with you all again and there will be PLENTY of photo's to come :) Big thanks to those who organised and ran the event and a big thanks to the rest of you all for making it such an ACE weekend!

PS - Good work to the NSW crew for making the trip down and for all the effort on the shirts and stickers etc.

3 :bunny: ,2 :),1 :wacko: ,Gooooooooooone.....:P

i was happiest at the end of the day ... topping it off with a little bit of umm "enthusiastic" driving ... :P

Your car is nuts :bunny:

Thanks all for having us down there again i had a blast :D

Lets see some pics/vids?! :)

Thanks for the spew buckets - you guys always entertain :wacko:

Well done Adz, forgot that one, thanks to Corrine for the shirts. Mine has just emerged from the dryer after a tip from Ash about shrinkage and now fits nicely! :P

Good work from Team NSW on making the trip and I see Sunshine is lurking on here too so obviously made it back safely. Great bunch of guys and girls and definately made the day and night memorable.

What an awesome event/night!

Highlights:

SILVER BULLET - I love 32's!! :P

Flange or Snatch! :bunny:

Drift Landcruiser nearly bet Evan driving James' EVO on the skid pan!

Flying Dolphins!

Bris trying to kill me during his 80% run on the long wang.

Handbags providing countless funny moments and then not remembering any of them this morning! (Can't wait for photos)

Spew Buckets prepared from Taco Baz on all tables!

Meeting a member of the bandidos on the walk home, Scary!

Paying some local $10 to drive us home because we were so smashed and listening to the driver singing some random hip hop crap in the car, not even the other people in the car knew what she was singing.

Ryan on the phone to Jarrod late last night saying "I can't believe you've gone home, all the other co drivers are here, you're sacked from co driving at Dutton" and sure enough Jarrod came back!

Thanks for letting me steer your car bris, I love it, gate is sooo cool and the silver bullet loves the rev limiter!! Looking forward to a fun time at Dutton next week! Team Gate! :)

Thanks again for all the hospitallity guys, another great DECA!

Big cheers to everyone who helped out to get the day running so well!

bed time now, 9 hour drive has taken its toll! :P

Do they still have 'my' cactus at that strip club? :bunny:

Sorry i missed it guys and girls.... the pics i got on my phone (before i truned it off) looked like it was going to be another night full of Hijinks and shenanigans!! :P

Yet another GREAT DECA weekend!! Had a ball.

Thanks to all that joined Ryan, David, Evan and I celebrate our b'days over the weekend.

The event was another successful day. I took alot of photos of the first group, in the morning, on the skid pan, but was happy to help run the pan for the rest of the day, so the camera was put away.

Big thanks to Paul for driving me there and back; especially when i fell asleep for at least 1hr45min on the way back home.

Photos to come when i could be bothered uploading them :P

Bris! i heard about your sighting lap! How did the tyres hang in there for the drive home?

Adz. Land cruiser drifting was tops!

As always great to meet more new people and catch up with friends. I had a great time.

Huge thanks for helping me out with the tyres on the day. Hung in there fine. Car got home ok on the dead tyres. Now to get them swapped over.

Will get the rims back to you when i get a chance. Abd again, a huge thanks, would have been lost without your help

Wooo!

We made it back alive!

Another huge weekend, both Friday and Saturday nights! I didn't realise how hard is it to stop yourself from drinking yourself stupid on Friday before DECA starts!!??

Thanks for all the great organisation, I felt very fortunate to get in to this event. The calibre of the driving is just getting way better and better :bunny:

And yes how could I forget the antics at the local strippers! First time i've ever been involved in a 'beer favoured taco". My shirt still smells of stale beer :P

So many stoires - but what happens at DECA, is supposed to stay at DECA!! (but rarely is that the truth!)

haha it was a tops event hey

- friday night at pizza hut, that was a pisser

- someone's comment (cant remember who) to a group of "young" girls walking past only to have the mum and aunty walk past moments later saying 'thats my daughter' haha

- the random dude getting pulled over the cops and us all walking up

- the walk home and traditional kfc

- special thanks to the nsw gang who came, good effort - hope you had a blast

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
