Hi all

ive heard some rumours about a so called MSF SHOOTOUT happening on the 21/2/09

i think its the D1 Street Legal class, correct me if i am wrong.

Ive heard it will be at Ebisu but i am not 100% certain.

Im interested in dates and where the event is taking place if anybody can re-assure me

Im trying to organise a trip to Japan for early 09 and i would love to fit in some drift action such as this.

I know that the actual D1 drift calendar doesnt start until 29/3 at Ebisu, the thing is i kinda wanna go there within the 1st two months of 09 for personal reasons (more like the wifey's reasons).

Also has anyone ever been to a D1 event and or a STREET LEGAL event and which one is better??

Im kinda tossing up which one would be best to see.

Any more light that could be shed upon this topic would be great

Thanks

The date is right, but they haven't set a venue yet. It was at Fuji Speedway earlier this year.

The drivers are top-scoring ones from the D1SL Regional class who qualified for a D1SL licence for 2009.

A friend has qualified for it this time around, so I'll probably be going.

      Yeah I heard the same. Might be hard to order one. But then I guess can go to hks or go to a more expensive n1 block with tomei. Guess will jump the hurdle once I get there next upgrade around. I can’t get work done in the states as the lead time will take for ever on top of shipping to Hong Kong.

      https://www.platinumracingproducts.com/en-us/products/nissan-rb26-cast-blocks This is the solution I was thinking of. I would stay away from Tomei USA, their quality is a question mark to me. If you want an engine machined in the US contact Club DSPORT: https://clubdsport.com/ Tomei JP is probably fine but I recall they stopped doing pre-assembled short or long blocks. In general it's pretty tough to get any kind of RB26 block at the moment with Nissan so severely backordered.

      PAR specifically offers stock ratios in their gearset and you could do whatever ratios are physically possible supposedly for no extra cost. I agree 6 ratios is better than 5, the factory 2nd gear is equivalent to the Getrag 2nd gear if you account for the differing final drive ratio though. The Getrag 3rd gear with a 3.916 final drive is equivalent to a 1.6 2nd gear in the FS5R30A. I'm about to swap the transmission out on my car, I'm tempted to send the one I have now out for rebuild with the standard "cross ratio" gearsets out there to see if it really makes such a big difference the next time I pull the transmission.

      This is what I was looking at next:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/engines/tomei/tomei-rb26-28l-short-block-assemblies-p-45479.html as we can’t bore the cylinders out in hk so better just buy the whole lot in one and install then retune. Everyone saying the weak link are the bolts holding the rods together. I already did valve springs, arp head bolts, hks racing coils, nismo fuel pumps and pressure regulators, injectors etc for the top of the engine.
