So is my browser playing tricks on me or have the results not been posted?

I was looking forward to seeing how much I flogged all you Datsuns by. :touch:

speaking of Datsuns, i've been a little disappointed the last two DECA's with the amount of modern cars entered...

SAUVIC needs a serious injection of pre-1980 machinery :D

What are you bringing to the table Rob?

Interesting that none of my times were the fastest. Again it seems consistency and driving at 9/10's is the key to bagging points.

I'll have to make it in november to hold on to the championship!

Thanks Ryan for doing a top job with the results and to Mat for driving my car so well!

Well done guys! Faulless (from what I saw) run from Adam was very impressive, and Russ and Ryan was super smooth as always. Special mention to Matt though, killer effort in a car that's not your own!

I'll be back at the next one to try and redeem myself for the terrible performance put in this time around...

Have to agree with that...it's the little mistakes from going 100% that make for big losses in times. I had a mini-wang cone hit (5 second penalty) in the stopping gate, which is a massive time loss on the mini wang. Cost me 17 positions/points...

Thats very shit that the points I acquired this time round dont count toward the championship.

After all, its the driver that gets the points, not the car. Bit of a kick in the pants to go with the blown engine.

Thanks Russ and Dane, it was good fun driving something different! Russell your car is a weapon...I guess, go RB20 Powah...

Thats exactly why i like stop gates...it forces people to time their braking correctly or risk hitting the cone...anyone can floor it through a flying finish...but it takes practice to stop quickly and accurately in a gate...

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
