Okay guys and girls, its Adelaide's turn. After 2 stunning efforts by Cazz (GTS145) and the committee from Classic Skylines Australia for organising 2 awesome Skyline Nationals in 06 and 08, its time for it to hit the road, and its landing here in adelaide

At this stage it will retain the standard format (until we start working thru things)

Sign in day Friday

Track Day Saturday

Show and Shine Sunday

Going to try and get Wrigley Reserve at Glenelg for the show and shine (this is to be checked on etc) and Mallala for the track day (again, pending on checking it out)

At this point we're looking at the end of july (as thats the traditional time and it tees in with the 7th Skyline Day celebrations all us 31 peeps do) but if theres ideas for a better time of the year we're all ears

Tune into this thread for updates, as we also want volunteers to be on the organising committee. Before volunteering for the committee, make sure you think about the time committment this will take too

wouldnt it be better to have the show and shine on the saturday and the track day on the sunday?

Definently the track day before the show and shine. That way you know which cars are worth checking out and which ones are just poser mobiles.

we're still working on the finer details. last year's nationals (due to a mix up by winton raceway) we had to go to the saturday instead, and i feel that worked well in some respects (especially for those travelling from interstate)

but in some respects i can see what you guys mean, track day sunday would work a treat too

yeah but if i want to take my car out on the track.........and something happens that means she will be f****d for the show and shine...........

but in the end whatever...........

Track damage/broken parts = mega respect points ;)

If it's July your chances of rain will be fairly high. You may want to look at an indoor venue...

PM me if you want some advice regarding venues, or a contact at Holdfast Council for Wigley.

I'll well and truly have the manual conversion done for the Stagea, as well as the brake upgrade. Show what the Stagea can do around the track :sick:

I know I sure as hell won't get the 1m17s I can get on my bikes, but I'd love to be in the 20s somewhere ... I know the track well :)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
