So who's going? Spectating/Competing?

They need officials btw and anyone who can lend a hand. If your able to do so just ask one of the officials/drivers on the day I'm sure they will point you in the right direction as I don't have anyones contact details for you.

Such is the pitfalls of retail BULLSHIT. :)

I'll be heading down also.

From whats on DriftWA there'll be RC drifting display as well as a bouncy castle. so BRING YOUR KIDS!!

haha funny dani... but yeh cheers :D

i dont want to go in the sand this round... cos now i have the smexy as f**k SSR SP1s on the front, and the CR Kais on the rear... dont wanna scratch them with sand lol

yep he entered... i told him Test N Tune was on Tuesday 8th Dec ... but he doesnt like my grip racing jokes lol

Edited by Tocchi
I think i'll be going and prob end up helping Tocchi out, i'll bring a shovel lol :).

i was coming in too fast at some points ... so bit of understeer..

eg: hairpin once, i did c-red faster (part of gaining experience i guess), so the hairpin came sooner.

i went good in practice session (except for last lap of it -- lost the rear end in the esses and went through the infield).

qualifying, went good :D

div-B 'top16' battle ... f**ked it up epicly... never spun so much. ever !

rims are all good :)

had the best day! hopefully showed a few people that R33's can drift (even with a newbie at the wheel lol)

was stoked to win my 1st ever battle, but expression sessions where highlight of the day.

Congrats to Tarq on 2nd place outright, this is a huge achievement for anyone but to do it in a 300hp R32 is just epic! boy got skillz :D

huge thanks to Trav, Dean and Nick for supplying and fitting my new axle, you saved my ass.

and thanks Tarq and the VR family, without VR Auto my car wouldnt have been drifting.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
