When do we see the Bathurst '91 & '92 winners, the GIO car and the Lindsay Fox Gibson car together?

Put me down for tickets whenever that day occurs. Love to see it.

That makes for a few Bathurst poles/wins & championship wins right there.

Hopefully someone could bring all the other factory Nissan racers as well. The superb sounding 31's, R30, Bluebird, etc.

Living in SA ensures that I see bugger all Historic Group A/C racing and I can't begin to tell you how much that sucks.

Not too many Muscle Car Masters or Phillip Island Classics going on around here.

Looking for a decent turn out for the Skyline Nationals coming up, factory racers at the Mallala track day should keep me happy for a while.

Pretty sure the GIO car, Winfield GTR, HR31, DR30 and EXA will be at the national's this year.

P.S. Correct me if i'm wrong Caz!

Jetwreck, Hope this is correct. I know you that most of the historic guys are busy at EC this weekend but it would be great to see all of those cars at Mallala as well.

I guess it's been a while since the factory Nissan's have been around Mallala? I know I was there in '92.

Have they been there since?

Fingers crossed for a good turn out.

Excellent news.

what a beast. ive always had a soft spot for the winfield gtr (hence my avatar)

Winfield GTR or not....after my drive today of the GIO car(my first drive of the 32 at full steam I might add)........F#$k what a weapon!!!

Got about a million pix from the Saturday. Will try and post up tonight.

Was epic seeing terry in the Winfield car in the last race on Saturday make up a whole heap of positions. Looked stunning coming onto the straight, with the headlights on.

That little M3 though was amazing. I think it was seton driving , right?

Also loved the look of the ANZ Sierra's.

only got to do the Handy cap race in the GTR(dad wanting it back for the races...bastard :D) but had a good dice with Seton in the Ford Credit Supercar! Car feel's awesome....so much grip......and surprisingly very easy to go quick in straight away!

P.S. Ben, I was in shock when Dad offered me the drive.....was shitting myself when I was told I had to try to come first(no pressure :P )......there was a 45 second handy cap from the first car leaving....got second :)....Seton third. Got down to a 1:46.4 through traffic on my 5th lap...not bad for a P plater ;)

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
