Thanks for putting the results up Ryan, Well done to the winners and place getters.

Exactly! I WD'd hard and epic fail, but I was having too much fun to care!

Hopefully I will take it more serious in nov....but i doubt it.....who ever thought EMO's could lose the back end and flat spin :(

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...

LOL.... Just call me 'anyone'. :rofl:

i was doing the timing on the long wang and you'd be surprised how many drivers didn't floor it through the flying finish.

looked like a lot of people were backing off over the crest and not getting back on the gas down the hill again. easy worth a second or two there.

Tim in the Micolour R32 is a prime example of someone who stays on it all the way to the finish >_<

If you haven't been to DECA a couple of times before its very intimidating flooring it over a blind hill you're not familiar with. Once you're at the top though there's no excuse not to stomp it.

Navigators?? its not a 50km tarmac stage.. all the maps are rather basic.. Next deca we are doing uber mega hard maps :(

Championship has been rejigged and will be up again soon. Overall now not only combines 2WD and AWD competitors but all the point accured by each driver in any car. This sees for a much closer final round.

That may be true, but that doesn't stop people from getting WDs as many have! Actually this DECA was pretty good in terms of map ease, Charles didn't have to help much but it was nice to confirm I was doing the directions right. Look forward to some complex ones next time, will make the navigator more useful! :wub:

      Returning after a long time!

      By silviaz · Posted

      That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
