LOL

Can we make a FWD class? It'd seriously be awesome. I'd have no chance against you though, so maybe not :thumbsup:

Yeah, well, just bein honest lol. For a car I wash weekly and depend on to get to work, I'll take the scenic route around the wangs thank you!

I don't reccommend taking in the scenery on the wangs, it can be an expensive holiday :cool:

haha i was there only for the style points :thumbsup:

Next deca dont worry :cool: Ill bring the proper tyres haha

oh no i am so scared :yes: although the next DECA will be during uni exams so will have to be August DECA or NDSOC/FPV deca...

It's turbo ;)

But OMFG, well done to Marcus and Clive.

oh, well in that case he is disqualified from NA class... how about the 180b datsun? is that NA or is it running a CA/SR turbo?

If we make a FWD class then I think there should be a class for NA RWD cars over 1500kg too...

Firmans 180b is now turbo.

We could always have a boat class... 330's, supras, R33's, commodores.... :)

What a great day in the history of the automobile !

Shitty Teins which are not as good as Bilsteins blah, blah, blah, lowly std RB20 with about 1.5bar up it, lowly rwd and no ass tickling, homo controlled awd system...well done Russ, finally someone with some talent rather then space cadets who are NASA rejects wins at DECA ! :)

LOL I could tell, you seemed to be making good use of your good leg to drag yourself around instead of using the hand wheels!

LOL thanks buddy, although lots of people were going to push me around on the skidpan i didnt get the oportunity :(

How the hell did you fit a 6 cylinder in there?

Mitsubishi fitted a V6 into the lancers in the late 90's i have serviced and driven one from a guy who works at Bosch in Clayton. Its a imported CE 4 door sedan, FWD, and yeh has basicly a non mivec 2litre v6

i was going to say congrats russ on the effort but you just called a commodore a boat, funny the first time i drove a skyline i thought i needed a boat license. i'd take a VL over a R31 any day on that topic but hey thats me :)

oh just wait i can see response's and i don't care this is my opinion and you didn't ask for it. :huh: it's a forum so :yes::D:P

Congrats Russ! Well done mate, and well deserved to a top bloke and awesome driver - way to represent the RB20 community! Wish I could've come down to at least spectate, but had to work and in addition got some new tyres I didn't want to mince! Might've had 4 R32's in the top 5 otherwise :)

and yet he told me he wants to get a rb25 :O

Shame Russ shame :P

I have to say after that day I am very tempted to go buy an R32. Not only did they perform awesomely (I told you on the day Russell that when I was timing your car literally shot out of the gate like it wasn't on a skidpan) but they looked and sounded amazing.

Only thing deterring me is their age and my lack of mechanical expertise, still I am tempted.

Yep but I've owned just as many commodores and falcons as skylines. Much prefer to drive my 'boat' around than my skyline. :D

If I could make 300 with an RB20 you know it'd stay in there!

Ready my sig. Can't go wrong!

You better make the next one! especially with new tyres!

i was more refering to r31's, never driven a R32 on the road just on and off hoist's and parking, im going to try not touch the whole owned cars bit, iv'e only owned 1 falcon (crushed it after 2 days) and 1 R33 which i resold a month later, but ive driven my fair shair of cars and then some as a mechanic :O

maybe i should enter my work ute next time and write "BOAT" on the back instead of "milk, bread cookies and cream" like whats on my silvia

:P

for some reason i can foresee alot of R32's at the next deca

oh i almost forgot, random note i almost bought a R32 gtr before i bought my silvia lol

clives result is damn good, didn't think the lancer was that quick. hopefully you ll be able to sort out all the bs with the engine builder and get the evo back on the track.

do you have a thread about the lancer, interested in all the work that's been done to it.

good day, interesting results.

Good to see the results. Congrats to the winners!

Have to say I'm pretty impressed with the old VL turbo. Once I got Ryan to actually try and drive quick (instead of rip[ping skids and drifting!) he didn't do to bad. Now he's got to fix the rooted lsd, and rear suspension bushes. The clunk in the rear was pretty rough haha! I reckon there's a lot in it yet!

Thanks Peter.

I haven't started a thread on the CE because the EVO is supposed to be the competition car, but it will be running again at PI this Saturday so hopefully it makes it through the day without incident.

I have been promised by the workshop that the EVO engine will be finished BEFORE the end of April so should be back on the tracks after a couple of thousand kms for a run-in and a re-tune.

Either way I will have a Lancer of some sort at the next DECA and most of the WRX/SAU track days this year.

    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
