Why the rule banning Porsches from ClubSprint class ? Is the event going to be predominantly Japanese vehicles or are other Australian/Eurp marques encouraged to enter. I see some BMWs are in the mix

We would like to see it mainly Japanese vehicles which is the reason for the no rear 6 Cylinder or above rule to rule out the millions of porsches which would take over the event. A good point has been raised by a few people about ferraris and lambo's being able to enter. I am fine with that mainly because I can count on 1 hand how many lambo's and Ferrari's will enter whereas I would not be able to count with both hands how many porsches we would end up with. We will see a few Holdens and fords and some Euros in there to mix things up and keep you Jap racers honest :(

So rally rego is OK for Street Car Class?

Cheers

The vehicle must have legal registration papers for the state it is registered in. Remembering though all vehicles in Clubsprint Class MUST have a Catalytic Conveter and a FULL interior.

I also have an RX2 Nc historic racer, will it be eligable for the street class?

Only if the car is registered and has a full interior.

Help me!!! is there a class that my car will qualify for?

Its from a major manufacturer (its a March), its mid mount, engine is stock.

Can I come? purty please? Oh bugger! I'm pretty sure my tyres are R compound :down:

Unfortunately Open Wheelers are not allowed to enter.

haha yeah we all know what ferraris and lambos are used for don't we. Wonder if any ferrari or lambo owners will ahve the balls to take their car out for a few laps.

A bit of mix wouldn't hurt, hope some euro cars turn up.

I know of atleast one who would bring a Lambo. Gallardo for Open Class but at the moment he is bringing an Evo as I said no to the Lambo at first haha.

haa haha, would be cool to see how it goes on the track.

Are you sure the R35 GTRs in the Clubsprint class will have rego by the time the event rolls around?

And personally i wouldnt be too worried about Porsches dominating the event. I mean, they are more of a risk in the Open Class then the Clubsprint. My little GTSt is quicker then just about any 993 RSCS or 997 GT3s that i have been on the track with. And the Boxster S which in std form is a pretty good damn thing is not actually rear engined. So if you may want to tweak that rule to stop Boxster/Caymans with twin tubos setups from rocking up and giving a lot of cars some hurry up

So does that mean we carnt use the Kumho V70A's?

And we can use the Federal 595RS's as they have a 180AAA rating?

The Kumho V70A has a UTQG Rating of 50 so is not useable for Clubsprint entrants. But the Federal 595RS's are 180 so they are fine.

damn i built my car specifically for these kinds of events but i got a 30/25. I think this has actually worked against me. My car is 100% a daily driven street legal car but the engine puts me into the open class which is full of hardcore track vehicles. The fact i need to use my car as a daily driver and its completely financed by one 22 year old means i'll be completely out of place competing in the same category.

Mine is much the same mate, and is financed by a 23 year old :D I'll be entering open class. I'd have a zero chance of winning, but hey, it'll be fun!

Guys i spoke to nathan for a while yesterday, i mentioned to him the position the rules put cars like mine (and a few of you others) into. He said that there's most likely going to be another class opened up soon but not for this first event

So im going to this first event to help boost numbers, have a fun day out, thrash the car - and meet some of the other tough GTR owners from around the place

Next time we (RB30 crew) can have a good shot :D

Mine is much the same mate, and is financed by a 23 year old :D I'll be entering open class. I'd have a zero chance of winning, but hey, it'll be fun!

Exactly the same here, 23 too. This year will just be having fun and getting experience, then when money isn't so hard to come by I'll field a much more competitive car!

Agreed!

Worst case we have our own 23 year old battle... SR22 vs RB25/30's :D

SR22 vs RB2530 vs RB2630

Lets have it anyway! $20 in the pot, winner (regardless of class) takes the whole pot

dam you all you young wipper snappers :P (26 'ere...)

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
