T'was a good day, and SAU was represented well. At least I thought so. Some selfish douchebag took out the People's Choice Award, and it was of no suprise to anyone that a Supra won the dyno comp, although props to R34power's mate for doing so.

There was a lot of JDM goodness on display, as those that were there will attest to. I enjoyed it. How about everyone else?

yeah he was shocked there was suppose to be a wide body r32 blue that would have beaten him.

I thought that blue Supra might have taken the people's choice.

Bad timing for me. My car is currently not behaving itself and has a few issues that we weren't able to iron out before the day.

Would still like to have gone but our house settlement went through yesterday and unfortunately I had a busy day with that.

i thought you guys failed in your turn out compared to most other days. that said i only got their at 2 (Due to work). was hoping to see alot more skylines out. have a good one guys, stu

I reckon we went OK. For those that showed up at 8.30am, it's an ask to do a full day, yeah? By 1pm, it was starting to wind down, so I'd say you missed the best five hours when you were at work

Hi all

Great to see plenty of nice JDM cars on Saturday. Sorry I didn't put my car on, but I've pretty much made a decision that I won't be dynoing my car on any other dyno without one of the ESP boys to oversee the operators. I just don't want to risk any damage to my engine. Plus I don't think I would have beaten the 398 that Nathan put down in his Supra as I think my valve stem seals are on their way out.

I did mention to the guy that was looking after the shownshine that if they run this event again next year that they might consider doing it either 3 weeks before or after this particular date as a lot of owners could be in the middle of playing footy finals and they should also consider having it run on a Sunday as well.

I was a little disappointed with the FD turnout though, maybe they were all changing rotor seals that weekend.... :woot:

Anyways, good to see some nice Skylines there, fingers crossed this event gets bigger and better for us JDM owners.

Cheers

Ross

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      By LaurelPWR · Posted

      Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

      I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha.

      Sheraaz's R34GTT Build

      By Shizu · Posted

      Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
