Yea Ryan,,, be out there some time tomorrow.

Just a little word of advice for the teams and organizers. If any of you have one of those petrol driven blowers,,,BRING it. Oran park are a lazy bunch of bastards and I'll bett Duncan's rear end the track will be filthy,,,especially the righthander before going up to the bridge(right in the braking zone).

Have fun tomorrow everyone.

Neil.

bring on the rain. it will show the men from the boys . but stay away from the inside on the straight . that wall hurts

Talking from experience are we Gregy. Is there something you haven't told me.

Steve-o sucked in mate No more rotary jokes,,,the cars sold.

Neil.

I want to know when they put a wall on the inside of Oran Park :P

I was *sure* I had tagged the wall at the day night meet the other day, but not a scratch to be seen. Having hit it a few times I can 10)% assure everyone that it doesn't hurt at all when you hit it at a very shallow angle (well the wallet maybe)

BTW good news all SAU NSW club members, we have organised access to the 2nd last Corporate room above the pits. So we can be warm and dry watching all the action tomorrow. Each member is welcome to bring 2 guests as well. Everyone else can either join the club or freeze their arses off :)

haha my rear end is pretty loose at times anyway. luckily gary helped firm it up and it handles much better now

bring your own hot choc pit bitch :P

LotusDave, are you the first entrant for the excuse book? By the look of the forecast you will still be more than able of showing the dattos the way around the track.

SAUers, just look for the banners at the pits and head up there.

Car tuned...nice 11.5afr's.

brakes bled...fresh Castrol SRF

tyres fitted...Dunlop's...mmm

loading the car in about 1/2 an hour.

and up at 4am to make the gate at 7.30am

all the best to the other entrants...see you there

Would have to be the best event i have ever attended at Oran Park. Awesome day out!!

Congrats to the organizers for putting on a great event :(

Big congrats to John Boston,Mark Berry and Adam Newton on their trophies. Top stuff! Mark and Russ should have got a trophy for bringing the 35,a trophy for awesomeness!

Adam(Adz) do you have a tuned length screamer pipe? Because that thing sounded angry :) Still cant believe that thing is a stock internal 25.

Chris (evilweevil),you were pumping hard mate.I have some good shots of you coming out of the sweeper before the dog leg.

Dave(blitzxtr) Was great to finally meet you and see that GTR in action,for 16psi it sure did hammer.

I wish i had my car out there. Maybe next time. :D

    • thanks mate, one of the reasons I even bought it to be fair.
    • I found parts on EFI Solutions webshop that seemed to be the accurate ones. I haven't gotten around to fitting the turbos back on the car yet since I still have to deal with the shitty crack in the engine block. But I'm confident that the bolts I ordered will fit. According to EFI they are also 7-16/24. The reason M11x1 got involved here is because it is apparently very similar to 7-16/24.
    • Well, to be fair to the car I've driven it daily for almost a decade now, although in that time only put on 50k, as it just recently passed 100k miles early this year. For the most part its been fine because I've been able to source parts from AUS like jacks jdm and a few places in Japan, some things like pads have been easy since 300z pads swap right in... I realize its probably at that time in its life i should find a new DD (but I rent and only have so much space, no garage) so new cars just complicate things. As it is older though, I recognize its about that time as with my '67 GTO to maybe side step and find an alternative, but if i can keep driving it... I want to.   That said, I may just look into a local shop that might be able to, problem is the mechanic I work with has limited space as a mom and pop operation, and he's a busy busy man, so id need to find out if he can keep the car in the meantime, which may or may not be practical for him. Maybe I'll just buy one off jacks jdm and get that refurbed /shrug.. just looking at options and what others may have to offer for advice on the matter. Like I said, its hard finding people around here who actually have one, I've had mine 9 and a half years and I've met 3 others, and they are all military, one was oem from 95 with 30k miles (rip that car... guy got hit after someone crossed s double yellow, totaled it)
    • I've noticed my rear springs sag a bit compared to the fronts. I have stock springs and KYB struts. The front wheels are pretty consistent in their ride height, but compared to the front wheels, one of the rears sits 20mm lower, and the other 40mm lower. This negatively affects the ground clearance, and also angles the headlights up. What are some some economical options for new springs? Or information like good spring rates, lengths  in order to find a suitable replacement etc Far from lowering the car, I'd prefer to raise it a bit to keep it ground clearance friendly.
    • I searched for ages as well, I'm importing an engine to get the head off it.
