Thought I'd make one of these, save having our comments extend the length of the organisation thread.

Great day as always. Weather turned out for the best (if not a tiny bit hot at times) and everyone was pretty well behaved. Good turnout and mix of cars. Shame we ran out of time in the arvo for the knockout and random battles, but we still got all the timed events done. Massive thanks to Bec & Ryan, all the volunteers who stood in the sun all day for timing, and MiColour for sponsoring the event.

P.S. Thanks to the people who lent me screwdrivers during subwoofer removal and reinstallation process ;)

Over to you...

Thanks to all the organisers and other volunteers for a great day. Looking forward to helping out at the next one!

Im currently uploading all my pics to flickr then I'll post the link, trouble is silly me decided I would upload them in full quality for everyone to just save rather than email asking but I had over 150 photographs and its been running for 6 hours so far and only 63% complete lol, Im sure it will get there eventually.

Awesome day! Had an absolute blast.

Met some cool people, learnt a lot about my car, discovered the handbrake and I actually remember most of what happened after taco bells this time!

Big thanks to all the organizers, Micolour and all the volunteers.

Would like to thank all the volunteers and event organisers who stood out in the sun all day for us! Especially Bec, i always felt guilty when lining up for the long wang ;) The day wouldnt work if it wasnt for all your help

I hope all the deca attendees shouted you all drinks cause you lot deserve them!

Thanks also to all the photographers standing out in the sun! Especially the one at the long-wang basketball court and the one on the skidpan (sorry dont know your name, you were sticking on a go-pro camera on cars)

Thanks again all!

And without further ado - my pics, Further proof that being a volunteer is an awesome job as you are right in the midst of the action.

They need some major cropping and some photo adjustments but havent had the time yet!

      CD009 RB Conversion

      Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.

      If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.

      Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.

      Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
