This probally should go into the events section but its better suited here..

as the subject says there is a demo of drifting at the next race meet between races at some point, im not exactly sure when ill hopefully find that out next week..

the date of the race meet is November 1 and 2, the reason for it, is the WASCC are seeing what sort of interest there is in it, eg if enough people turn up to watch it, and its a noticeable crowd they'll be gang busters to try running a drift series next year, WASCC being a company work on money in short, if they see theres a possible income for it, they'll go for it, simple, so the more people there, the more likely a series will be go..

The race meet is the enduro weekend with hqs, street cars and i think sport sedans/sports cars running 30 lap races..

on a side note, anyone got either 195 50 15" tyres or 205 45 16" tyres they don't need and want to off load?, i've used my stash up and need more :)

Denver, I'm all for more support for drift in WA, but I don't see Waneroo as being a circuit which really has much to offer in the way of drift. There are virtually no corners that you could link togethero I'm not sure how you would be able to do it? Either way I'll come along to watch and see how it goes:D

the short track join is pretty good for linking, drift up through shell which is the big left hander up the hill, flick it into the hair pin for short track, link the next corner, and then back onto the hill straight..

you could try linking the esses, but your a brace man if you try, the wall thee is to close ofr my liking

Well isn't that going to suck for spectators, as all those places can't be seen? The whole purpose of drift is to make a spectacle of the car going sideways around corners, not much point if no-one can see it.

I'm not trying to knock the idea, but I just don't think it's the right track for it.

not 100% sure on who's in the demo, will let you know later in the week..

however it seems the race meet is only one day according to the time table, and the demo is on the sunday nov 2 at 12:30

by looks there should be a good mix of cars tho, few of the normal nissan typres, maybe a sprinter, and the rex all going well

i only wish i could see the reactions on peoples faces when they clue into the rex being only RWD..

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
