One of our state's (and country's!) most renowned drifters (and Skyline driver/owner!), Linden Reynolds, is in Japan with a group of Australians for the Drift Matsuri festival at Ebisu. It's 32 hours of straight drift on 7 tracks at one location - crazy!

It draws drivers from all over the world, from countries including Australia, USA, UK, New Zealand, Denmark etc etc... As a result of this, Option DVD held a competition for all the international drivers.

In an unfamiliar car (a Laurel with a fairly stock RB25 in it), on an unfamiliar track, our very own our Lindo WON the competition!!!

Yes I'm proud, I'm happy to admit it, so just thought I'd share our piece of excitement with you!!!

CONGRATULATIONS LINDO!!!

:dry:

lol I was gonna ring them last night Bec to see how they went, but thought I better wait until the festivities were over and they'd recovered.

That's awesome news, massive congrats to Lindo and all the lads repping us over there.

For those who don't know, the Matsuri organisers always run an impromptu comp over the course of the weekend, and they decide what it's going to be after the event has started (try doing that at a CAMS event lol). This time around it was called the G1 (G standing for gaijin haha) and all the foreigners were invited to have a crack at winning it. I actually think Luke Fink won the last one too, so us Aussies seem to be doing pretty well over there!

    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!
