Hi all

On behalf of the ACT Supra Club I am trying to gauge who might be interested in coming to a private track day at Western Sydney International Dragway (WSID) for a Supra v Skyline event held by the ACT Supra Club. We will try and have this event sometime this year (at the worst, early next year) with the prospect of running it as an Annual Event.

At a minimum we will require at least 40 cars to keep the cost down to $200 per entrant. We are trying to keep this to 20 cars of each model. A deposit will be required to reserve your spot for the event within 8 weeks of the event start date. The full amount is required by no later than 4 weeks of the event start date and is non refundable. If you are unable to attend the event after you have paid the full amount then you will have to find a replacement car of the same model car as your own.

What I would like to get from you all is if there is a minimum of 20 Skyline’s here that may be interested in participating in this event. It would be great if we could get 10 from NSW and 10 from the ACT.

As stated earlier, this is a private track day and it is limited to the following access for drivers, crew and spectators:

1 driver will be allowed two crew members and 3 guests/spectators. Basically, each driver can have no more that 5 people excluding themselves, therefore limiting the day to a possible 240 people.

In line with the mandatory rules of WSID, some of the other rules we have been thinking of are:

1. This event is restricted to Supra's and Skyline's only, sorry no exceptions!!

2. All cars must be street registered.

3. All cars are limited to no more than semi-slick tyres.

If there is a car that does not comply with any of the above additional rules but intends on joining us for the day then this car will be excluded from all prizes.

Depending on sponsor availability, there will be prizes available. I understand that the cost may be a little on the expensive side but I am in the process of obtaining sponsors to assist in reducing the cost, but at this stage if you're interested, please post your interest here.

Some additional details of the proposed day are:

When: Sunday Date to be finalised (available for this year are, November 16 & December 21)

Where: Western Sydney International Dragway

Start time: 8:00 am to 10:00 am for scrutineering

Finish time: 4:00 pm for drivers briefing

Cheers

Ross

link to supra club thread?

i am in. i want to get this 10 second quarter out of the way

if you do better than an 11sec pass on the day (depending if the supra club has organised otherwise) they wont let you keep racing.

All WSID rules apply to this event.

WSID is an ANDRA-sanctioned venue. All private days at WSID must run under ANDRA sanction and therefore all rules and regulations must apply. A car running 10.99-seconds and quicker must have a current ANDRA tech inspection, full cage, driver must wear full driving suit, have arm restraints or window net and hold a current ANDRA Unlimited Drag Licence.

Any vehicle running quicker than 12.00-seconds must hold, at least, an ANDRA Super Street Licence.

Fine by me. The sooner i get kicked out for having a street car thats too fast the better. Drag racing is boring and i only want a 10 to prove that I can :(

You might want to check that with WSID mate. I am speaking from experience here. AFAIK they don't allow you to run faster than 11.0 at private hires.

That wont stop Guilttoy cos he only wants to run 1.

This is the very reason owning a fast car in NSW sucks ass.

love to smash out a couple of low 9 sec passes...but we are not permitted to race at such an event. Car has all safety gear and has current ANDRA tech inspection.

I'm in... I won't be cracking the 10.99 second mark, but I'll give it my best... flying the skyline flag

Will it definitely be $200 or is there a chance of it costing a little less... yeah I know, Im a tightass

:D

every post i see you make has something to do with money lol poor guy.... the byproducts of owning skylines lol

i guess i could go pending what the date is and how the car is running at the time.....only thing is i never dragged before and my car has only minor modds like pod, exhaust dump/front pipes, hd clutch..... nothing exciting yet

The quote comes directly from WSID, it's a copy and paste from the correspondance I've been having with him over email. I don't know any of the rules to make things up.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
