Hey fellow Skylines. Is anyone interested in entering power cruise?

DETAILS: http://www.powercruise.net/12/index.php?page=entry_form

WHEN: Feb28 - Mar2

WHERE: Eastern Creek

PRICE: $120 entry before Jan 7 / $180 after Jan 7 / $220 after Feb 22

Dyno Comps additional $30

WHATS INCLUDED: This includes full weekend admission fee for the driver into Powercruise® and entry into the Carline Mufflers Powercruise® cruising sessions, Powerskid™ Comp, Burnout Comp, Off-Street Racing, Drifting Comp and the Show & Shine.

I bought my GTR back in August and have been spending my time going over my car making sure everything is right before I take it to the track. For me this is an entertaining event where I can flog the car a bit on the cruise sessions and off-street racing without being too hard on my car.

I'm seriously considering this and a few additional SAU folk joining in would just push me over the edge. So whattya think?

:thumbsup: GD2ILA

I think I will do it too. I've seen footage on the Ignition DVD (Ep #25 just out). Looks like a lot of fun.

From what I can guess, looks like the "Off Street Races" are simple line up and go. No stagger and doesn't like like it is timed. Basically just a king of the hill race with the all out fastest winning. Folks here will be happy to know that an 8 second R32 GTR won it in Qld.

Cruise sessions look to just be free form open track where you can drive the track (not at full speed) and have some fun shooting down the straight or around a corner before slowing down approaching the other cruisers.

Looks like has some exhibition stuff - jet drag truck in the QLD event, show -n- shine, etc.

I see it as $120 for 3 days is pretty cheap to have some fun.

anyways - hope to see you folks there. Look for my White R33 GTR.

Cheers.

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
