Well there's a couple of Maccas at Preston, u mentioning the one opposite northland or the one on Bell St near St Georges Rd? Opposite Nthland not too bad depending how many cars we got. If we get in early before the weekend shopping rush pours in. But at about 10-ish I'd suppose many shops will be opened already and too many cars there. We can go to Maccas Bell St, rock up early, have some breakkie then go from there.

Hi Geoff,

Sounds good.

There's like 2 or 3 threads of this now in this forum can be quite confusing to follow...

northern suburb guys meet at 9.45am @ bell st maccas? I read about the western suburb gonna be at calder 10.30am and they got vip treatment for sau club, like opening the door early just for us. It's in the other thread... so let's northerners be there too!

WTF happens man.... You northerners are a bunch of no-shows :)

I've been waiting in that Bell St Maccas from 9.45 for about 1/2 hr.

Not a single soul show up.... so I left 10.15 and go straight to Calder as some of the others is suppose to show up 10.30 there...

I arrived like 10.40 and there's only a couple of SAU members there. That looks like one of the most disorganised meet-up.

Anyhow I had a great day at Calder. We still manage to get the SAU people to park at one corner of the main car park outside, maybe about 10-15 cars only. Those Jap D1 drivers are nuts!!!! Those who didn't go miss out a big time....

BTW Funkeh, did you go? I didn't see you there.

hehe.....i waited at the shell station on toorak rd 9:45-10:15 waiting for the convoy from megamart to swing by but no show....so i just headed up myself to find that the gates were already open, organisers didnt know what was goin on when i mentioned SAU. asked about the wrist band for pit acess and they knew nothing about it.

ah well......its hard to get things perfect all the time:D:D

Ja, sorry about my no-show :) I had all sorts of problems 'cause I was playing taxi. Ended up having to go out to blackburn do do a pickup : got there eventually, and the ppl at the gates said i get my pit pass inside? couldn't find the SAU guys for a while.

But all in all a great day out. The Jap D1 guys were awesome :) the people I was playing taxi for were whinging so i had to ditch after the first round of qualifying - so next time I'll go on my own with people who are actually interested in it - like u guys :)

I was there in a bright red R33 from 09:35 with a choccy thickshake until 09:55 cause I thought I was stood up, and rolled in at Calder just before 10:30. Even then James and the guys were a bit late but it was a great event, even if it is just lair-assin' about. Gotta admire the skill of the D1 guys.

Anyways, no biggie. The end result was the same for those who went...a good day.

what?? where were u? didn't u see my car when I arrive?

anyhow good to hear you went... yeah those D1 drivers were awesome.

so much corner entry speed...

pity I had to leave around 3pm so miss the rest of the show.

heard there were even more to see after I left.

Right beside the drive thru, and left north on St George.

 

Next time dude.

funny, there was a few guys hanging around near the drive thru... around a bright red lancer coupe....

omg, i hate to think that's you.... cos it means ur R33 looks like a lancer to me.

he he :)

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
