so what events are avaiable to compete in? I've only been to Easternats once and i know there's an 1/8mile drag and a lap cruise of sandown - what other events are there?

And what requirements do you need to be able to drive in those events?

thanks in advance

yea i be going to easternats doing the ride around the track do i have to fill out a form to go on the track or just the drag and burnout comps??? getting my car prep this week end for it new rear suspension going in next week and doing brakes and general service if i have enough cash maybe get a tune as well :D

You need to enter, tick the box's you want to compete in, even if your only doing the track cruise it will still cost you $200 to enter.

go to whoa, stampede, burnouts, drags and cruising, i think the drags are the only ones that require a helmet.

do they camp at the entrances and get ya on the way in and out? If thats the case then f*k that....i'm staying the hell away from there!!

I went a few years ago and they were watching people enter, leave and drive around the pits, when ever they saw one that was too loud they would write down the rego and you would get an epa notice in a week or two, best bet is to pull off your plates and rego label and trailer it or get there really early on friday and pull them off then leave it in the secure car park for the weekend.

Actually thinking about entering my whale...but if I do you blokes had better come up and say HI! or else....failing that plan ill def be trashed in the crowd somewhere on at least 1 of the days LOL...

if ur goin to enter, dowhat i did. trailer ur car there and back, take plates and rego sticker off b4 u leave home its the safest way. and do not do wat a few guys did last year and park the tow car and trailer out side and drive the car out of the paddock to the trailer... as u will get reemed!!!!! for all they guys that r entering hop u guys have fun and have better luck than i did last year cheers.

hmm so who's going but not entering in the events? u guys gonna convoy down?

I will be going for one day, not entering and not even taking my car there.

I agree.

I had a look at the entry form and they require a photo of the car, the year i entered they didnt have that, had a lot of shitters there in primer and multi colored, bout time they tried to weed out the shitters and upped the quality of cars, after all i think they max out the entries every year dont they, the least they could do is send the shitters to the back of the queue and tell them to come back late on friday, if there is still spots they get in.

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
