This weekend Eastern Creek Raceway will hold the fourth round of the Drift Australia series.

I will be there all weekend with the Federal Tyres crew, we will have a big tent and display with give aways and goodies for sale, I hope that there will be plenty of SAU'ers coming to watch the action!

Make sure that you come to the Federal tent say G'day, have a close look at Nathan Weissel's awesome Federal Tyres R32 Skyline drift car and I'll shout you some freebies!

Hope to see many of you there! :O

Cheers

Mick

Great day today, perfect weather. Shame about Nates troubles re: stripping driveshaft spline on saturday, and having to replace the turbo today due to (we think) oil starvation :cool:

You have to start young if you wanna be the next generation of Drift Queen

So yea, was there all day Sunday. Had loads of fun :) Was in the pits, watched some stunting :banana: dropped by at the federal garage...but nobody there :D

Saw heaps of skylines, almost looked like a show 'n' shine where everyone parked :D

Ill get some pics of my mate shortly, who took around 600....... ;)

I have to appologise to everyone who came past the Federal tent when I wasnt there, it turned out that we had a major shortage of tyres for some of our sponsored drivers so we spent most of Saturday chasing them down, then on Sunday we had to go to our Taren Point warehouse and pick them up (fairly long drive from Eastern Creek to Taren Point) but we ended up getting the tyres in time and everything went to plan. ;)

It was a very busy weekend for us but we still had a blast!

Thanks to all those who came to watch the action. :D

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
