results still not straightened out, but it looks like all the SAU crowd made it through day 1 intact, well done everyone.

In particular Ben is 1st in Classic by a mile.

Snowy is 1st in rookie (I think, some results still missing)

Targa Tom is 1st in Evo class (sorry I mean showroom), by almost a minute. Great job.

It looks like Quinn (GTR woot) 1st, Richards, White, Jones (GTR again)....Alford 10th, Leemhuis 18th, Russ 20th.

In Early Modern: Shaw, Walsh, Beeble (GTR).....Thatcher/Handley 11, sav man down in 38, I guess they've had some trouble?

yep the 33 crew is out of the running but not out of the event. old Manion had a spin and got stuck in the mud on stage 3 this morning and missed the next stage so 2 dropped stages. apparently if they had a front diff they would have got the 4wd out. ben said they tried to use the HKS atezza controller to pull them out but with no luck.

Ben also had a few spins. apparently using a gravel escape road then using all his dorift skills he has lean from me did a hand-breaky 180 much to the amusement of everyone watching.

Good on the Nissans.

Still a great effort from the SAU guys today, we haven't lost anyone so far (except Ben/Sav really)

Modern: Quinn (GTR), Weeks, Richards, White, Jones (GTR), Alford 13th, Russ 15th, Leemhuis 17th. Great job in particular from Russ who has come miles through the field from 20th today.

Early Modern: Shaw, Walsh, Beeble (GTR), Ayres (GTR), Moore(GTR), Bergmann (GTR) Thatcher/Handley 12th, sav man still hanging in there in last after penalty time for yesterday.

Targa Tom is leading Evo class by over a minute.

Marlin is still hanging in the lead of Classic, but they are getting caught slowly. I assumed they would go quicker after the exhaust got ripped off in stage 16 :cool:

Snowy is leading Rookie Rally by over a minute too, well done. 2nd is another GTR Jorgensen.

Damo...Ben obviously lives by Neil's slogan too....."if you can't go fast, look good"

well rookie is over and Snowy wone that. good on you snow man and the Z-Tune looks the goods to. because he wone he gets free entry into the full event next year. i hope to see it back.

After analyzing the data off bens (sav) Track mate we found that he pulls 1.7 Geez (G-Force) in braking, but that also lead to the demise of a rear brake rotor by the start of longford (last stage for today). So i have just got home from a drive to Devenport to pick up a replacement pair of rotors and fitting them.

Also Apexi Power FC pros with launch control are the shit. just ask ben.

its good to see all the GTR's up there and so close together.

i would also like to point out that there was even a r31 2 door entered this year giving the skyline an appearance in R31 to 35.

I woke up to RAIN today! its going to be a fun day.

plus its RAINED heavy all night so things are going to get loose.

So those guys I saw at BP on Wellington Street yesterday in their Datsun 510 SSS are going to have fun considering they brought wet tyres for wet or dry?

Awesome :P

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?

      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.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
