August 1st 2010,

It's only $45 for the first year - subsequent years are only $30. You get 10% discount at places like Main North Nissan, Willall Racing, Auto Perfection, ISC etc etc .... tell me any year you WOULDN'T spend close to $300 between all our sponsors, and I will call you a liar :banana: .... then to top it all off we have plenty of member only events (or events offered to members only then filled up with extras only if we need them), club-only displays at car shows, club-only dyno days (of which one is coming up start of September - and it will be CHEAP for members - in fact more than $30 cheaper than a normal dyno run on its own), members Xmas dinner (which at this stage seems like it will be free for members), then add in that through us you can get your L2S Cams license for $100 a year .... membership certainly has its privileges.

Just come out for lols man. I'll be useless but I'm just going out there to bust skids.

I took the skyline out once, using 1st gear all day aint that fun after a while.

not entirely correct but mostly

non members will be allowed to attend and participate but members get a 2 week preference in notification and pay $10 less than non members

ill see if i can find the thread that followed the development of the car. pretty interesting read.

found it.

its a pretty epic read, 64 pages, but yeah, shits awesome. car was purchased as a one make series race car, bunch of shit happens, dude gets bored and starts tinkering, and the result is awesome.

and just to show how long its been since ive read that thread, theyre now racing a genesis. rad.

Trouble is that installing headers on a V35 is a $1,000 labour job as it is one of the biggest pita jobs and takes 8-10 hours .... unless you drop the motor of course .... which I will have to do when I fit decent pistons etc sometime down the track. They are on the list :banana:

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
