Who here went to the easternats this w.e?

I didn't think it was as good as last year... couple of 33's and a 32 today and a sil80 and an s15 varietta was in the burnout comp.. didn't stay to see it though.

what did everyone who went think of it and did anyone enter this year?

i went. i didnt go last year so i cant comment on if it was better or worse than last year but the year b4 i did. and that year was better than this year. needs to be over the 3 days i think.

i went today rocked up as they were dragging, didnt see any skylines :cool:? i was also disapointed with no drifting demos also, those 2 s14s looked like they knew there shit. had a look at there cars and they are mint

Yeah, that was me! Was a tuff weekend, you missed out bro, i popped both tyres! :D

For the record, in the street drags that was my mate drving coz i got a random breath test in the line 4 the drags & i blew .017 from last nights binge! :) But i got tested again in the line for the burnout comp & it was .000! You got 2 be zero on track! :cool:

Hope yous enjoyed the event!

yea i wanted to stay 2 see you but everyone was gettin restless and wanted 2 head back after the tampon van lol...

is yours turbo? they only came out n/a yea?

I went this year on saturday i thought it was pretty good, I love going in the morring when they have the cruise and everyone just power slideing i can watch it all day,

The last time i went was about 3 or 4 years ago and they had drifting but it was pretty sh*t because no one really new how to drift back then.

Who ever owns that puple R33 GTR there i love your car mate its tuff.

i entered in 05 and havnt been back since, will be entering again next year with a couple of mates (i will be the only jap though)

hopefully they bring back the stampede and drifting, doubt it tho i think 05 was the last time they had both of them.

I saw you on saturday drifting the main strait lol, you were so sideways the crowd all stood thinking you were going to hit the wall. It was very impresive.

How good was the 33 GTR sporting the HKS turbo, 4wd launches with a few flames too.

Yeah i put down a few tuff times in Go To Whoa, so i started having fun trying 2 land the car sideways on the line insted! lol

GOD2LA is fkn tuff! I gated you 4 kicks, then u gated me back! lol, you'd punish me anyday!

lol, i stayed away due to the probability of hightened police activity in the area...

true true! they've been alright to me and my mates but i've seen heaps of ppl pulled over afta... and last year there was this bloke after the nats, on that street just outside the gate at the car park he did a burnout n 3 cop cars went chasin after him it was pretty funny!

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
