Mike was a ring in,

and Bruce got a whole new car!

Cam and his schweeeet GTR went home due to ill health :thumbsup:

Andrew and Markus murdered the 180SX

and Paul left early so he could vote!

I drove like a sissy all day (busted ankle) that stuffed my points really bad!

Cody skidded like it was on old bad habbit

and Lars the skid addict already wants more skid days :blink:

Sorry about that Lars..

pain killers were in overdrive and it made sence in my head when i posted it all up! lol

all fixed..

Crap.. I just realised that the slugger old VB beat me! oohhh the shame,

What u on about Kody..

its true! admit it..

I rang Bendix about my brake problem, they didn't want to know about it or any other issues I had. So now i dont want to know them! I am looking at romoving the set up from my car and going a totally different brand, a brand that beleives in after sales service! Perhaps it wont spin my car around on the time trials next time.

Edited by psi

I wouldn't be so full of yourself Kody,

I seem to remember Warren taking your car for a spin and beating your time in your car.. and he had never driven it before!

Now that has gotta suck X10!

beating me should have been really easy. I couldn't feel anything below my knee and the Doc swore at me when i told him what i did on the weekend! on the other hand.. He was not surprised.

Not only could I not feel much, It hurt(and still does) to pull my foot back.. So, if you couldn't beat me, you should have gone home and cut up your car and ur permission to drive! lol!

big baby got burnt good! aww.. (pats ur submissive head)

now.. what we gonna do next time..

I have a plan! but that will surely change 15 times before next skid session. lol

I have idea's from Lars.. and Bruce.. and Leigh.

anybody else wonna throw their 3 cents worth into the equation?

your idea is noted..

hmm, I can just imagine you doing a hand brake park in front of your local cop shop for a demo..

I'm guessing that you are talking about a 180 degree park, and parkin the car on the other side of the road?

I have already been givin the idea by both Bruce and Lars..

I started out trying to get you guys to be smooth and precise,

never thought that it would create skid monsters like you guys(not that i can talk!)!

SAU exculsive skid day comments..

Like always, The SAU 'group' was a great crew and behaviour was top notch.

I will be posting up results when i get a little more time to do it..

I beleive that everybody learnt alot from the tuition from the tech session, and that the info was of good use in the time trial.

Everybody was driving a great deal better by lunch time and I am glad to say that I am more than happy to welcome SAU back for future skid days!

Like always with the SAU skid day, the day is restricted to members first, sometimes somebody pulls out, so SAU ask for other skyline owners to play for the day. If you want to get onto that list, please contact 'Pear' on the forum!

Thanks

Aaron

I thought I should also mention that I have a youth group that do the car wash. I supply all the gear, including Mcguires car wash.

Its $8 for a wash and chamioux.

They are raising funds to go overseas and build schools for orphans of war, all money raised goes to the build project.

So bring $8 and help them out, and you go home in a nice clean car after a day of skidding, No washing your car on sunday!

Thats gotta be totally awesome for ya!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
