Question: Do you have to be a SAU VIC financial member? (asking for a friend) as on the forms asks about car club, and also will say a ford club be ok? or does it have to be SAU?

Emailed forms, will pay the $85 now also.

another question, when do we find out if we in or didnt make it in the event?

What ya mean? :D if you paid and signed forms by the time the list gets to 50 your in ;), and you get a full day of driving regardless if your going for times or not its not like a knockout or anything like that

WTF is with this 'cheater car' bullshit, im reading it everywhere lately.

Aint jealousy a bitch.

I hear GTRs handle like a boat on the front end on the tight skidpan :s I shall find out soon!.. if so.. nothing a few clutch kicks cant fix aye!

i meant if i did make in the first 50 to make the list..when is any sort of confirmation expected...that what i meant...

Just check the front page. Ryan periodically updates it with new entries as confirmed. Last update was "As of 11/10 1545"

Femno: Sedan vs Wagon, Turbo vs NA, AWD vs RWD... well you get the idea :D

No biggie, but I dont remember buying a GTST?........ :D

Take off front driveshaft, and tell people it's 33 GTST 40th Anniversary.

Look at post #2, if your name is in the entry list means you're in.

Get boat licence while you're at it. Clutch kicks did nothing for me when I did last DECA... Will have to try harder.

When the poor bloke dealing with 100 pages coming out of his fax machine, I'm sure it'll be updated.

Entries officially opened today, reasonable to expect it might take 1-2 days for things to be processed.

Hehe Shane I thought you wrote GTST on your entry form since you were ashamed of driving a cheater car ;)

I wouldn't call it cheating, I'm just using any advantage I can get to make up for my (lack of) ability :D

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
