BTW I think Paul's car looks fantastic

So between this one, Ben's R32 and I think there is one other R32 it should looks like a Nissan racing re-union, love it.

Once they stop pandering to the sooky Porsche drivers and let R32 into classics I reckon we will see a few more done the same way.

See...that is uber cool. Love to see an off its head go toe to toe with Blaise's chook cooker RX7. I will build it and Dr Woo can win in it!

hahah hope that's Liam :P

looks like ben had some bad luck, but at least it is still SAU all over the top of the class....hope those guys keep it together tomorrow.

looks like lots of big names fell off today, apparently conditions were terrible this morning.

Go piss bin into the lead in em

haha thanks guys. Got quite a surprise at lunch time. 30 or so cars didn't make it to the end today with several nasty looking crashes. Murchison and riana were two of the hardest stages for us with a mix of slippery tar, oil and plenty of literred cars. Turns out that 33 windscreen wipers don't really work over 180km/h.

Congrats Liam, great work getting through.

I know Kel was stoked with second as well, and if Mel had been 1 sec faster it would have been an all SAU podium.

And a GTR took the overall win too, so happy days for Skylines :)

Nice work Piss Bin and to everyone else down there. Looked like a bloody tough year!

And as stoked as I am for Jamie to come through for an outright, I'm absolutely shattered for Matt Close in his Audi. Knowing what Captain Fathom puts into it, and what a result it could have been, has kept me sleepless.

Awesome that YT could get that Evo over the line too. Really happy for him and John, and props to their mates and crew for pitching it so admirably.

Although I do hope to see a somewhat more competitive field in the future events, as I don't think it's just me who looks at it and wonder where some very long term (and fast) competitors have gone?

Cheers to everyone for all the nice stuff said.

We were just happy to get through this one given all of the carnage- the podium spot was a bloody nice bonus.

Massive Congratulations to Liam & Larry - so many people were happy to see you take the top step- especially us!

If there had been another stage it would have been an SAU 123 for EM. Mel was totally blitzing us at the back end of the event and for it to come down to one second in the end was just incredible.

Commiserations to Ben- this can be a rough old game sometimes.

It was also great to see Paul running the dirty 30- people (including the Nissan flag boys) were far more interested in that car than those (yawn) 35s!

Hopefully we'll add to the dinner set tonight. We could be a good chance for the team award, I'll get my platinum plate and a little birdy has suggested Steve and the Just Jap GTR may be joining the hall of fame ;)

Sounds like a case of steve bradbury then?

To finish first. First you must finish.

Never a truer saying.

Plenty of people can be quick but it's an endurance even not time attack. Targa history is full of people that nearly made

Thanks again everyone! Still riding the high of wining, though going back to work today was a killjoy.

We were so happy to see you up there too Kel!

Hats off to Mel too for the very close 4th place with several 1st in category stage times.

I tried to wave whenever we went past the guys with the Nissan flag. I'd love to see a 31 in it along side the 30 too!

Commiserations to Ben too as he was killing it before the alternator issue. He was really on a mission for stage times on day 5 and set several top 3 overall stage times.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
