Long Wang's victim did make it home okay. My one hour of DECA was great :)

Glad to hear!

Just going to quote myself as I think it is a valid suggestion as there may be more new people at the next DECA

Was a good day, only suggestion is on the miniwang, cones(or waterless barrier:P) going from the finnishing box to the edge of the track that the timer/cone mover is on, as a few times cars went straight past when they shouldn't of, could leave the other side open for when other people need to move around the circuit still. Would also help flow as you would have peice of mind that people would know where they were going so you could release the next car as soon as the previous car is clear even if you are still walking off the track. Might save 1-4seconds per release? would add up.

Oh, and I recommend sunscreen

Another great SAU DECA. Thanks to the organisers and volunteers once again.

I'm glad to hear Juliette got home ok and hope the Pulsar doesn't take too much to fix.

Beats me how you guys manage to organise such great weather too, looking out the window this morning but keep it up and I'm looking forward to the November round.

What an awesome day! First time out there and had the time of my life.

First of all organization was great and you guys couldn't have picked a better day, perfect weather- would like to thank all the volunteers and organizers that took the time and effort to make the day as good as it was and run as smooth as possible! Everyone was friendly and was great meeting everyone.

My favorite course would have to have been the mini-wang, was laughing the whole way through that one especially coming up sideways up that hill foot to the floor, think i did a wee. Skid-pan was awesome as well, surprised i made it through that far in to the knockout stages with the lil 20, would've been nice to beat the the evo and make the finals if i hadn't locked up parking into the gates hitting the cones lol - what a gun he is! :) Well done to the winner :blush:

I've only got a few snaps of myself that my friends took, here's a couple of my favorite shots of the day

Haha was an awesome event. The Longwang - skidpan - miniwang setup was interesting and flowed quite well.

Battles were awesome fun!

The knockout section was real good but it ended up with a lot of people sitting for 20mins~ once they got knocked out

The best part was the remaining skidpan time for the people who stayed to the very end :)

I think everyone managed to squeeze out 4 untimed battles which was awesome fun haha

All my tyres are gone and im sunburnt haha

Cant wait to see the photos/videos! Saw so many photographers out there, some with the longest lenses I have ever seen! haha

(Any footage of car number 9 black r32 send this way :blush:)

Thanks all!

car 46 (mine) is auto. i had no troubles out there man. but i will be putting in a shift kit and swaybars b4 the next one.

longwang was cool, if only for the fact that i managed to lock up into the first chicane, and proceed to carry two cones all the way around to the second chicane.

Cheers mate looking forward to seeing the times if they get posted as it felt like I went through pretty quick (my second run felt quicker but i hit a cone in the finishing gate :) ). Mod wise turbo-back 3", induction mods, fmic, rb25 s1 turbo, remap, 13psi ~186rwkw - Suited me well for skid pan and mini wang, could do with some more grunt for the long wang though...

Didn't know you made it down, was your car there?

I came down with Roman(white 180 type-x, at wallan BP in the morning), me and the mrs did the timing/cones on the mini-wang then passengered on the skid pan in the arvo. Yeah on your second run was a pity you hit that cone, think it was a second faster than your first. What suspension mods does it have?

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
