My confirmation email from Renee stated that you just needed to present to the gate and if you had rsvp'd your name would be on the list

Email confirming my place was not from Ranee and they where talking passes and no friends etc

Would be allowed entry.......

I am 99% sure all you will need is ID for entry to the track. This is from my email:

For interstate owners, you will need to make your own travel arrangements to get to Melbourne. Nissan will then provide a coach transfer from the new Hilton Melbourne Hotel located at South Wharf at 6:30am sharp to take you to and from the track if you don’t want to drive yourself. The bus will return you to the Hilton Hotel South Wharf.

What you need to bring:

• In terms clothing, we ask that you wear clothing that covers the full length of your arms and legs, plus appropriate footwear for driving. As this event is being held in the midst of winter in Victoria at one of the most southerly points of the state we strongly recommend you dress warmly as Phillip Island is very exposed to the elements off Bass Strait.

• Helmets are not required and should not be brought along.

As an exclusive GT-R owner invite only event, we ask that you bring identification with you on the day.

We will have security at the gate and only owners with their name on the list will gain access to the track. Please note that only registered owners will be permitted to enter the circuit property. Please do not bring any unregistered guests.

I have done similar days at the Island with BMW and Audi in the past and ID was all that was required on those days too.

See you guys there in the morning session. Fun day ahead.

As for eastern creek, Nissan did one at Eastern Creek for the GT-R launch. It was a great day out but media only. This Phillip Island one will be even better with Mizuno-san attending so southerners are getting it good.

I think it's 10am at the South Wharf Hilton.

I can almost guarantee that there will be not timing going on. Experience in the past would indicate that they do anything not to do a full timed lap.

See you all tomorrow morning I am on the AM session.

Almost every phone has a stopwatch!

Could anyone going tomorrow to Phillip Island 1:46.53 please post the lap time this guy is doing

I would like to see how much faster he is than my times

1:47.40, 1:47.03, 1:46.53

(ATC May 09)

Dean Canto V8 supercar driver seemed pretty relaxed talking to me as he punched out a lazy 1:46. no idea about other times, unfortunately no data from Suzuki-san's efforts

btw this trip has ruined performance driving in Queensland for me. Phillip island is such a superb track, I don't think I will be able to go back to the paperclip....

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
