I know asking this is like trying to catch a turd one handed in a pool but here goes . . .

I have a drift car and my mate is about to start using it up barbs , thing is he has never drifted before .

So im looking for a bit of tarmac anywhere thats on private land (ie not the street) to show him some basics .

If anyone has a trucking yard or something somewhere that we could use a few times it would be greatly appreciated .

I am 34 years old , a sensible adult (to some level) have a safe road registered drift car and most importantly , i know how to show respect to other people and there property so i wont be leaving any tyres/fires/explosives etc behind . Ill be handing over my phone no lic details etc to anyone that may be able to help out .

pm may be the go as im not interested in having 4 cars turn up at your property .

At the drift practice, if it is your first time to the track they send you out the back of the long straight were they have sent up cones to do some circle work and teach you the basics (there are 4+ trainers, which are just fellow drifters)

yeah im fully aware of this but you can only run certain dates /at night and im a driving instructor with a car . All i need is somewhere to use it and i can get a lot more training time in for my mate at a much more relaxed pace .

You're a driving instructor with a car?

Asking this question, of all questions, on a forum?

..........

Bring on the flaming.

BTW Barbagallo was a shit suggestion.

Doubt these guys want to pay for membership + cams license + everything to pass scrutineering, just to do some skids.

nic a31 i dont think you read the post properly .

you might want to re read it or maybee i should have put more info in it but i didnt want to be longwinded like i usually am .

The idea i was trying to get across is that if there is someone out there that wouldnt mind letting us use some space that they have that would be very nice and we would treat them respectfully .

I cannot see why using a forum to put out a request is a bad idea , espescially when i reccomended people that are genuinely able to help should pm rather than post .

Im just trying to do my best to do some responsible and safe driving AND be accountable for my actions while doing so .

If you want to promote street drift then i suggest you continue to shit on everyone who tries to avoid it .

PS: As an additional note we both already pay cams lic wascc membership and attend barbagallo drift sessions .

I'm sure he knew what you meant, winds himself up pretty tight on here. Nic, chiiillllllll bbrrrooooooooo!

For individuals, Sam (slydr) has a place with an area like what you need but from what I remember there is buses & all sorts of things being stored there but it's probably the same situation. But there is no harm in asking because some people could have a big, open area at their work... But if not, the Barbagallo nights might just have to do! They did also have drift lesson sessions at the AHG driver training centre, but since RAC took over I doubt they still happen

Thanks for the feedback ossie

Its pretty cool to hear that AHG used to have drift training . I thought they were quite anti drift . (been there heaps in various cars , you can get away with a bit)

As a point of interest ive been to the RAC centre for a tuning arvo after there change of ownership and its still pretty good value if anyone was wondering .

The first barbagallo tuning day for now is our first place to unleash some tyre tread .

Its a good way to start drift at barbs by doing some track farmiliarity during the day all day for 60 bucks . If its quiet well be able to get some good drift in .

AHG never had drift training... they use to allow abit of drifting till people took it too far and now they have come down hard on it.

be warn you will need to double check if you are allowed to drift at tuning days, barbagallo is pretty tight on when you can do drifting

I recall an article where a guy in bullsbrook was meant to be setting up a skid pan for this kinda thing?

Steve the guy in the article doesnt actually own the land so he can't really do much

The owner of that block lives in Albany

Also the locals spit the dummy not wanting the hoon element in their suburb

Yes they did have drift training, using both skidpans. The drifting they have come down on that you're referring to is during the actual driver training days..

If you want to promote street drift then i suggest you continue to shit on everyone who tries to avoid it .

When did I promote street drift?

I'm sure he knew what you meant, winds himself up pretty tight on here. Nic, chiiillllllll bbrrrooooooooo!

No news recently about the Bullsbrook one, but if they ever did build that, 24 hours a day 7 days a week it'd be full of 17 year old bogan white trash and their Falcons/Commodores...great place for all sorts of shit to break out.

There are a couple of people in Perth that have their own private slabs...only one I know of off the top of my head is Slydr (Sam), DriftWA/Antilag.

i think i got lucky last time i was up there midweek . it was so quiet and relaxed no one really minded . i got to drift past a couple of guys after chatting with em to make sure they were cool with a bit of drift .

from memory it went something like . drift mor ? dude seriously more now .

just kept the speed up and the angle down .

Yer council never approved the skid pan in bullsbrook.

There are a few notorious truck stops around the perth area that people love to go to and do a skid.

    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
