Check that out

I watched that first then saw the Dick Johnson vs Skaif one. They should've kept these sort of races going instead of having only the ford, holden v8s (don't know full story of Australian race history :) ). I even saw an AE86 in the race, don't know what it's doing in there! hahaha :P

I'm not old enough to remember/know, but the GTR was known from winning races on Mount Panorama? Maybe we could organise a huge cruise up to the the mountain itself?

I don't know, just throwing ideas around.

Thats a great idea! i think that all the SAU clubs from each state should work together on this one.

Quick run down

Becasue of the gtr winning and being dominat in the series and the serria before it they chose to just make it ford v holden

There is more detail but thats the basic idea

nice video that one, its like me on the way to work :(

keep the awesome ideas hapening!!!

also i think next step will be to approach our commitee members from each state.

That is the best thing to do to make it work like a jamboree for the gtr

Can't imagine the huge cruise going all that well to be honest. Petrol prices being a killer, the drive itself being a killer, what's the chances of people actually going? I can imagine it happening though, would be crazy. Every skyline member/owner on the forums car's lined down conrod straight. :(

If you build it they will come

well we do have a year to save, lol

but on the other hand, in a years time petrol will probrobly $2 per litre...

yeh thats exactly wat i was thinking. i wouold love to do it but realistic i dont see it happening and if it does i dont see as many people attending as we would like.

lets all celebrate by buying Basti R35's :(

fixed

we could make it a huge nationwide event, and get nissan australia to give some demos in the R35.

yeah they'll be happy to take the credit for other ppl's hard work

If you build it they will come

werd

your makn all of us younger model cars feel a bit out of place here =D

Everyone would be welcome, but you need to remember that its the R32 turning twenty, so of course its going to be centred around them.

    • 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.
