rotormaster and pac performance were awesome to watch. Massively quick cars. Pacs mx6 on its first pass in the day did a launch and then shut off but managed a 1.0 60 foot which as u people would know is really chomping. massive potential left in that car.

it was an awsome weekend, my mate Nick ran a new PB on both days ending up with a best of 12.04 @ 110MPH in his VR4 powered GSR. He made it too the 3rd round but was beaten by the gold rigoli wrx which ran a mid 9 i think.

GTR 700 was a big dissapointment, i understand how hard it is to get a car like that sorted but i was so keen to see it do at least 1 full noise pass. It did a wicked 1/2 track run for his ANDRA licence on sat which reminded me of the HKS R33 GTR luanching at drag combat. He then came back for a demo run but couldn't get it into gear for the burnout and then that was it! Didn't even see it in the pits today :`(

The croyden GTR from NZ did well on sat with a couple of full noise runs. That thing is nuts off the line with the craziest limiter launch's i've ever seen! He lined up today and did a mid 8 sec pass which was great but then that was it! He only ran once on race day!

So after all that dissapointment thank god for kier wilson in his JMS R32 skyline! This 3L NOS powered MONSTER of a skyline was the high-light of the weekend for me, almost everytime he came out he ran a 9 sec pass with amazing consistancy and reliability. All on STREET TYRES!!!!

Theo ran a 10 in his R32 GTR and also entertained the people with big burnouts including one which went to 3/4 track!!!

The www.101motorcafe.com R33 GTR won the modified street class with consistant low 11 sec passes and great promotional girls!

and then there were the rotors, spluttering and brapping there way into stage and doing some very impresive wheel stands. Apart from "smoking" Joe Signorelli's amazingly consistant 7 sec runs the rest of the rotors didn't really go all that quick compared to past jambo's. Noticely absent were some of the quicker PAC Performance cars, these guys usally rock up with heaps of 8 sec cars and even a few 7 sec ones.

Angus from fullboost.com.au had his RX7 going with an amazing 580rwhp this car was a weapon and Angus was aiming for 9's. After a rocky start on sat, which resulted in a shattered gearbox, he burnt some mid night oil and replaced the box but unfortunetly broke the radiator when it came down off the jack. Last min repairs were done and he ended up running a wheel standing 9.99!!

NZ's fastest fwd was a bit of a fizzer, the quickest i saw it run was a high 10 i think. The integra lost its title to the My105 Online front wheel drive CRX which ran a low 9.

Dom Rigoli's new red wrx wagon set the new 4 cylinder 4WD record with a very quick 9.1 sec pass

The freestlye motocross riders finished off the day with a jump made out of 2 trailers that were towed onto the track. Unfortunetly the 1st guy to jump it overshot the landing by about 2m and broke both his ankles! The other 2 guys carried on with the show and pulled some sweet tricks including huge no hander landers!

All in all it was a good weekend of racing and i can't wait till next year! With a bit of luck i'll be racing my R32 with some RB25DET power and hopfully some 12sec passes ;D

The sun was bad. We had drunk 4 litres of water in 2 hours!!

I thought "yeah.. 4 bottles will be fine" .... PFFT.

I dont know why they don't hold the event in winter. It would make heaps more sense!!

Maybe they need women to organise it. Someone with brains anyway :)

Ants

I heard the comentators mention it.

heh, i didn't realise i'd writen so much untill i posted it :)

I should probably have mentioned Archie's cosmo/berreta rotor but it never really made a clean pass. He was having heaps of transmission issues but ran a few 8sec passes in the end.

Tony Khoury's triple turbo triple rotor ford probe also had alot of clutch dramas but ran a couple of 8sec passes on sunday with some nice burnouts.

The Pac performance mx6 was running for the 1st time so i wasn't really expecting much, it did mostly shake down passes but pulled a few full noise low 8sec passes. I think he even recorded a flat 1sec 60' time which is just amazing! This car is definatly going to run a 6, they built it in acordence with NHRA rules so i expect its going to go over to the state for a tour.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
