Thumbs up to JMS for organising the event and to Danny for setting up a car (in such short time) for a demo show. Too bad the silvia died prematurely.

I particularly liked how the final 16 were eliminated - one on one. The closeness of each car while drifting made it a heck lot more interesting!

Maybe in future, we can have a St Johns crew on standby, should there be any mishaps or heat stroke incidents. Sat was ****in hot!!

Hmm...okay. Just seemed strange to me as I've never seen a big muffler and a smaller one side by side...looks "different". I would have prefered the wastegate pipe to dump straight to ground, or having it stick out the side underneath the sideskirts :(

Yes that S14 belonged to James from D1 Garage. He was kind enough to come down to JMS just the day before and let them know how crappy the Drift Event is. Then he comes to the Track with a Helmet in his Car. he had 2 chances of getting on the track, 0 and **** all!!

We just get a bit pissed off when after all our effort someone who hasnt done anything thinks they can come and bag us

Fair call - as I see it, you guys are doing more than anybody else out there to get drift recognised in this country - and its a good thing someone is doing it.

well we cramped 4 ppl in the 33 and drove from melb to adelaide and it only cost a canary, 2x $200 fines and 6points, full sunburn that blistered the same day and a bad hang over on the sunday.. but it was well worth it.. hope to be there again for the next 1

    • Yep, I really miss mine. I dont, however, miss it's understeer. Hard to find a genuine 'Sport' model these days. That sounds awesome! Good fun and great result!  I'd love to do a 1/4 in mine now that its reasonably healthy with the tune. I last did a run in my white GTR, I think it was a 12.3 and I can't remember the mph and I think the little E90 might be quicker.
    • FWIW, I made 372kW on a Mainline dyno, with a stock motor (bar head studs & usual bolt ons) on E85 (pretty timid timing in the mid range) and it blew up after a year of track use. Probably got like 5~6 Wakefield track days and 1x skid pan somewhere in between.
    • Plus, if you want to shoot for over 300rwkW, the Z32 won't really cut it and retaining the PowerFC is getting to be a poor choice. You're going to be much happier with management that can actually see what's going on and have a hope of stopping it from going bad when something breaks (think oil pump). So, the $$ situation is probably different to what you think it is.
    • 350-400kw will not keep that basically stock motor basically stock very long, especially for track only use. It will decide to need a rebuild pretty quickly. I'd go smaller, and not cheap out with a Pulsar item based on older tech. Get a G25 550/660. Just better in every way. Don't think about changing a turbo until AFTER you change your injectors (S15 injectors x6? What CC are those?) and coils/fuel pump. They won't keep up with any aftermarket turbo.
    • Hey everyone,   Probably been covered 100 times but i couldn't see anything when searching  Time has come to replace / upgrade my turbo, dont have any crazy plans for the build maybe 350 - 400kw in the future  Engine is a basically stock R33 RB25DET apart from Apexi power FC, S15 injectors, Boost controller, Z32 AFM, Cold air intake, free flow exhaust  have been looking at the Pulsar GTX3076R 0.82 will this be a good option? wont be upgrading the injectors and coils till next year then pushing for 300kw so dont want anything to laggy in the mean time, car is track only not street   TIA
