Hey Guys and Girls,

Have you every wanted to see what it feels, sounds, and smells like to sit in a Drift Australia car at full noise on Eastern Creek's Drift Australia Circuit?

Have you every thought how much fun would it be in a fully prepared drift car, flat in 4th gear, and kick the clutch as you enter one of the fastest corners on the track?

Have you wondered what it would be like to only be able to see the ripple strip and grass on the inside of the corner as you do this?

Well if you have then read on! :blink:

The Sureflo Drift Team in conjunction with Driving Sports have come up with a taster ride to get you out on the track in their Drift Z, and I'll be steering to make sure you are truly scared :P

The Drift Z.

Fully Built and stripped drift car. (Originally 300zx)

5.7L built V8 with a single turbo setup.

Tremec 6 speed gear box

Widened track, custom panels and body kit.

Full V8 Supercar spec rollcage.

Noise- Custom Sureflo Exhaust with no mufflers, anywhere.

Wheels, big wide 10inch front and rear = SMOKEY!

Fun - Hell yes!

The Ride.

2 full laps of turns 4 through 12 in the Drift Z.

Signed poster and picture with me (The Picture is optional, or it can just be you and the car if you like) at the end of the night.

Cost: $250 or bring a group of 5 and we'll knock another $50 off EACH! ($200pp)

Or

Sponsor the car, or get your company to sponsor the car, with $1000 or more and we'll take you out for free*, and put your company's stickers on the car as well as send you photo's for promotional use for a whole year!

Larger Sponsorship packages are available and are tailored to your needs.

Kidz, we normally charge $800 for 2 laps of only the Drift Australia circuit (turns 10-12), so grab 4 mates, $200 each and come down for a blast!

This cost also includes entry to the whole event which includes 3 drift arena's (Peanut track dry and wet skid pan also), burn out comp, small car show and DJ. It is lots of fun and a good night out.

When.

We are next going out on Friday 25th of June, we'll be on track from 6pm to 10pm, so there is plenty of time to get lots runs in. These events run really smoothly and we have loved going to the 2 we have attended so far. Full Event Details HERE

PM me to book your spot and get excited!

Stay Sidewayz Kidz,

Dan.

hahaha +1 for $250 they are gonna give you a chance to ruin the clutch and put it into the wall, I think not.

ohhh that would of been good value for money!!!!

but yes good point.

Just to avoid further confusion :)

Still a good deal even if you don't get to drive! :P

I've been lucky enough to sit in the passenger seat with this lunatic on numerous occasions and it was a barrel of laughs.

To look out the passenger window back up the straight while the car is sideways,,,screaming it's head off with smoke billowing out the rear is bloody fantastic.

I highly recommend getting your bum in the seat,,,you won't be dissappointed.

Cheers

You crazy old man. I've had him sit in my passenger seat and also been in his, but back in the pretty much standard days.

This would definately be an experience.

Ahhh the good old day's... gee I miss them, but the good new days are fun also... :(

Hey guys and girls,

I have managed to spend too much time at work and working on my own car, as a result I have had a chest infection turn into pleurisy and if I'm not careful I can develop pneumonia, so as a result we have scratched this event from our calendar and will be moving all rides to the event on the 23rd of July.

All details will be the same except for the date. Still friday night etc.

I'll update the post when we have more details.

Stay sidewayz kidz,

Dan.

.. but in all seriousness pleurisy and pneumonia are right up there with leprosy on my "things to avoid" list. Hope you get better soon, Dan! Then more sideways :) (oh yeah and spend less time at work.. not less under the car :laugh:)

Thanks mate.

We are planning to make the next event on the 23rd of July, which again is a friday in about 3 weeks time. Same deal except I'm planning not to be sick this time :) (I have administered 3 large glasses of Uncle Chop Chop's recipy :D)

So let me know if you or anyone you know is keen.

Also, Kinks, we need some quality shots taken and I'm hoping you might be able to help us out. If you still have my number then give me a call, if not pm me yours and I'll call you.

Cheers,

Dan.

  • 3 weeks later...

We're going sliding on Friday... and I can't wait, these day's are always fantastic and great for you lot to watch also, I think entry for spectators is now $20, and one lucky person will win a ride in a drift car!

So head on down, open pits, 3 drift tracks and much much more!

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
