I was told anyone can have a go whether u've drifted before or not, is this true? and how much is it?

And what are the requirements?

yes anyone can drift providing they have a car and licence,

it cost $60 to drift, you will need a Cams L2NS licence i think cost about $50 maybe more and it lasts the year, also need to become a member of Wascc wich is a bit more expencive, you can get all this on the night,

for beginers they have instructors you can have in your car and they can take u to a seperate section of the track where you can learn a few techniques before you hit the big track,

Really, well that's a little more comforting. might see if i can save enough money by then, do you just rock up or need to put your name down??

Will be there, still undecided if I'll get out there and give it a go, been wanting to for a long time and this'll be last chance before I lose license, don't wanna break anything though. Can anyone confirm costs for a first timer? And what's the rules on the cars? Just no loose shit flying around? Only need long sleaves and hellmutt?

not sure about the costs for a first timer but it is all covered on www.driftwa.com and maybe www.wascc.com.au, You need CAMS L2NS Licence wich u can buy on the night for like $55, your first practice is free once u join Wascc,

You need a helmet that meets australian standards, long sleeve shirt and pants, enclosed shoes, no lose objects in the car

Was a good night, shame I had to leave around 7.30, I've had an irritating cough all week and was freezing my ass off. And the drive home takes so long. ;)

Slydr and the pink 32 repped the lines nicely. :laugh:

I can't wait to get out there sometime next year. I'll be practising in a 180 until I'm confident in getting the 34 out there.

hey all had an awsome night drifting, tyres only lasted me about 4-5 llaps before they was f**ked,

dad didnt have a good night, halfway through the night someone spun infront of him and he spun and the touno cover went through the back window and flew off, he smashed out the window and went back onto track, he started going pretty good but going down the straight at approx 150kph the radiator blew and when he when into cat corner it turned around on him realy quick and when into the wall, car bit f**ked, exhaust came off and bent all weird (me cable ties and heat wrap fixed it :cool: ) the drivers side from door back is pushed in and flat in the shape of the wall, havnt had a chance to check out it better but the back right off the car is slouching really low so might be a fair bit of damage, pics up soon

I went last night and it was awesome, slydr was really tearing it up :D I also loved the little corolla that was running on wires at one point along with the R31 with the awesome dose sound. I saw NA_Goodness in the carpark and a white gtst that was parked a car away from me with "hi" written in the dirt on the rear bumper :cool: All in all great night and when is the next one?

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
