Great weekend! Most fun ive had in a while. Only thing is i left my spare wheel behind at deca so if anyone grabbed it please PM me. Thanks to all the organisers and helpers.

Will definately be at the next one!

Hey Vince we grabbed it at the end of the day, after most people had left, and took it back to the motel only to find no-one there had left it.

I had no room to put it in my car, for the drive home, so i gave it to Leon (username: Achoo), Wayne's (Rchoo) brother inlaw, as he had a ute and trailer. I also guessed that most entrants were from the east side, so would be better for an east sider resident to take it, looks like i was right :devil:.

Get in touch with Leon (Achoo) and you'll be able to sort out the details.

Just a quick thanks to our Volunteers who officiated throughout the day, Mick from Micolour for sponsoring the event as well as Adz and the rest of the chefs on the BBQ.

It was great to see so many new faces, so many 1st timers makes it feel like one of the original decas.

12 weeks till the next one, conveniently placed one week before Dutton.

As for the night... Do you believe i gave birth 5 weeks ago? That is your ultimate Shep pick up line...

Thanks to SAU-VIC, volunteers and Micolour for running the day, had a great time and I don't think i had any WD's this time so that was a plus... but i still managed to take out a few cones.

I'm keen on entering the May event now, hopefully have the extractors and Nistune in by then.

LOL I'll keep my ears peeled for any stories of strange men/women out in Shepp on Saturday night and report back - Im sure I will hear something being that we're in the country! :laugh:

I had a great day, was happy to help and be in the middle of all the action all day :D

Will definately be at future events - The countdown has already began til the next DECA day and this time we will try and have the energy to stay in town and join you all for the night time festivities !

i don't believe i thanked you for inviting me to the event, i know i called you every name under the sun on friday when my ca18et conversion was still incomplete and your co-driver answered the phone saying you were on your way to shep.

thank you to my co-driver who managed to wake up and get to the event for the 2nd skidpan battle where my clutch overheated, (better late then never).

can't wait to see/hear video footage !

can anybody tell me if owning a rb20e would actually change my rank ? cause i already do :laugh:

big thank you everyone who made this day possible !

p.s vince i have a spare tyre for you to borrow, and u no longer own a vc.

Wow!

What a fun day!

Like usual the SAUVIC guys put on a good show - big thanks; Bec, Chris, Scott, Ryan, Wayne, Adam and ALL the volunteers!

Huge thanks to Al for the lift and the drive, i usually dont like driving other peoples cars quick but couldnt resist another RB30. Mate, your car is crazy fun!

Also good to meet some new faces - Ben, Femno, Leon, Russel, Aaron etc :D

VERY nice to see some Porkas (no, not the strippers) come and spice things up, they sounded awesome getting sideways on the skidpan. Hopefully they'll be there again

Thanks to everyone that gave me a ride throughout the day! Chris (purple r33gtr) ill find out about the rims asap

The red supra looked great out there, good to see a JZA80 mixing it up with the Skylines. Definatly need a set of those rims for my one

Turns out 1000cc injectors and that monstrosity of a fuel system arent good for fuel economy back to Sydney, who wouldve guessed?!

The burgers tasted great this time.....i wonder why that was.....

Shepp's nightlife never ceases to amaze :laugh:

Any pics or vids of the white R32GTR "BNR32" (NSW rego) would be very much appreciated :)

heaps of fun as usual, thanks to all the organisers

LOL @ flying finish, a new thing for some of us, but for the newbies, they didn't know any better, turns out most people thought the mini-wang was also flying finish HA HA! apparently that was the cause of many lockups into the finish gate for the mini-wang.

I was a massively different crowd this time which lots of people out there for the first time which is great to see. Not many 4WD cars out there at all... And silvia's galore!

Once again, it was a well run event with great people everywhere. I'm happy that the next DECA is not too far away either!

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
