Burr we would of cleaned up if we were eligible against general Sydney entry ;)

YAY! :( Like I said after the show, I WILL be organising duplicates of the trophies for anyone that wants one. A LOT of effort was put in by A LOT of people and I want them to remember that weekend :( The cost will be known on Tuesday/Wednesday hopefully :)

I'm getting some pretty gnarly headspins right now due to lack of food, sleep and rest, so I'll probably be heading off to bed shortly.

pfft

we had a better display, and we SO had more power then you :( though we were worried... we were watching you closely ;)

I might organise it next year with the other states so we just enter as SAU country wide :(

Morph you guys had a nice display over there but in the power stakes well, only 4 of our cars went on the dyno(mine managed a terribly low score btw) and we still won the club shootout :P

I think we both got hard done by Queen Street Racing even BEING a club as really, they are part of a business.

Oh well, there's always next time.

Display looked awesome guys.

Spoke with Marijan the other day and he was really pleased with the weekend.

A bit down that he didn't get any individual awards but got over it pretty quick :-)

He went for a bit of a drive on the Sunday and got pulled over. Luckily no defects, but the nice polite lady officer, took his phone number and address saying she might send him a nice invite to visit the EPA :-)

He tried arguing that his exhaust was called a HKS Silent so there's no way it should be too loud but didn't get very far.

Hahahahaha I love the way he thinks :/

A car like that should really be engineered, I hope he's done that.

To be honest, we were all a bit peeved he didn't win best engine bay, especially after one of the judges was drooling over it... The winning one wasn't even finished! It seems shiny things impress these judges :/

Luckily I stayed back to help pack up and didn't go for a drive with Marijan. It would have been a riot trying to argue the 'HKS Silent' exhaust excuse on my car :/

And I agree that Marijan's engine bay should have won best engine bay (not that I am biased in any way :/). Pure street car that has practical show and go.

Best. R32. GTR. ever.

Well done to Marijan on such a fine example of a true street/strip/show car.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
