i thought it suited :(

i wanted to see skylines actually enter rather then just cruising ell wel

well unfortunately my gearbox was making some bearing type noise 1 week prior to the event so that screwed me over, wasnt able to attend.

i wouldve loved to show most the v8 turnout what skylines can do :D.

ahhh well theres next year for me, with much bigger setup ;)

went yesterday wasnt a bad day, but no1 knew what they were doing in the stampede event. apart from that 180sx that was going sideways up the straight.

Firstly - to the guy with the S2 33 - nice car..

...

I think the reason why skyline or other import drivers stay away is the sheer stupidity of the v8 meathead crowd. Sure there are some nice 8's that go, no doubt. But there are the fair share of crappers that go aswell. But cos they have a v8 and set of straight pipes the moronic crowd thinks they are gods.

The other reason I think it's not worth entering is that cruising is a joke. I found it funny that on the TV add for the Easternats it said to avoid the traffic and stay home this easter - go to the easternats. If anyone else here has been an entrant you'll know exactly how much of a joke cruising is and how stupid saying that in their tv add was.

For those that havent - heres a rundown

you go flat out down the straight to the first corner, slow to 5 k's cos the traffic is banked up infront of you, crawl through the next few corners to the nack straight, flat out for 10 secs then back to a crawl. A lap at "cruising" speeds takes 8-10 minutes.

You could probably get around faster on a pushbike... although the officials would still tell ya off if you popped a mono down the back straight...

Burnouts, well watching them it's easy to spot the guys that go to shows and do a lot of burnouts and the ones that just practise in the kmart carpark.

And finally, if you have ever had to deal with Jon Davison and getting "different" cars entered, scutineered, you'll know he knows as much about his own event as britney spears does about singing.

but thats just my 2c...

Yeah f**k'em, although I did not goto Easternats I see where you are coming from.

Guess it's the same when you see a Commie at a Drift Event but I'm not sure if the guys at the PA give them shit..?

Anyone see a white Nissan 180SX with a HKS POWERS sticker across the windscreen?

"Boof" is his name, met him a few times and that's his 180SX with a high mount turbo + all the goodies under the hood.

couldnt have said it better myself!

the amount of times i had people say to me this weekend "why dont you put your car in?" and the amount of times i told them "sorry, but burnouts arent my cup o tea!"

i was only too happy to stay well away from yob fest 2009! i like my car the way it is... NOT BENT OR IMPOUNDED!!! :D

sorry if i got a bit carried away...

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?

      You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
