On Wednesday the 28th of January Initial Drift will be conducting its first ever official drift event which will be a drift demonstration/membership promotion held at the Eastern Creek Raceway drift circuit.

DETAILS

Location: Eastern Creek Raceway (Dry Drift Circuit)

Date: Wednesday 28th, Janurary 2004

Time: 5pm-9pm

Admission: Free

On demonstration at this event will be an array of drivers ranging in skill from beginners right through to advanced and featuring an array of both stock and modified vehicles. This will provide an excellent opportunity for those new to the sport to witness it first hand (and free ).

In addition, this event will not only serve as a drift demonstration but also promote the club and its activities for potential members. It will also provide an invaluable opportunity to meet other members of the forum and those working behind the scenes.

Membership information will also be available on the evening along with refreshments.

If all that is not enough for you Eastern Creek is having a "Run What You Brung" event on the main track so you can run a few hot laps should you feel the need (yes the need for speed).

Hope to see you all there!

Yes it should be a great night out, and will hopefully get more recognition for the sport of drifting in Australia.

It's free to come along and watch so all welcome and we will have membership information available for people to check out.

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
