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...

Thankyou once again to the organisers and everyone who made the trip. Also Taco Baz + drinks afterwards was great as per usual ;)

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!

brilliant weekend, had a blast and got to meet a whole lot of poeple.

must say thanks to all the organisers and volunteers as it just wouldn't have been possible without you.

i'll definately be back for the next one.

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!

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
