And a HUGE thanks to all volunteers, from BBQ to merchandise to sign on (Tegan did great after Anna and Duncan had to stop), cones to timing to sceuitineering - the list could go on and on!

Thanks everyone, without your help these days can't happen

yeah I enjoyed once I figured out (last 2 runs) why the hell the car wasn't making any power at all ie. TCS was ON *facepalm* This is what happens when you drive a skyline with 2 hours of sleep night before..

On the first run I rode my clutch like crazy and smoke started coming out of it like mad ... I let it cool down but can still smell that stench. Doesn't seem to be slipping though. What's the chances it's gonna have permanent damage ? I rode that thing like a mofo trying to "wing it" on the first course..

it was a good day and im suprised the rain held out as long as it did. Huge thanks to the guy with the white 180, without his fathers help i dont think i would have got the battery secured and got out on the track.

Looking forward to pics and results.

so un new mx5 not so great as last one :) SO BOATY!!!!

time for new tyres and sway bars me thinks!!!! handles like shit (for an mx5... still beat some of you tho :))

thanks again to everyone that helped out..

i'd like to thank Doof, Mitch Moo, Spanna, Eric, Shell, Dave, Matt, Ben M, Mark, Steve-O, Reece, Tegan, Ben Sinclair, and anyone else who i may have forgotten (sorry) for all their help today in the timing, photos and just standing in the horrid rain to make this day possible.

I'd also liek to thank a few of the girlfriends who helped out.... sorry i dont your names, but it was very nice of you to help at sign on and with lunch :)

if i have forgotten to thank anyone please kick my arse about it :D

WOOO!!! BRING ON NEXT TEXI!!!

It was good to catch up with those I know and meeting those who you I didn't know before today. There were some pretty epic skids out there today! Nicely done people. I think the rain added a lil something extra in the afternoon too :)

Literally hundreds of more shots on the disc. PM Me or Talk to Pezhead if you haven't ordered one yet.

Love how straight this GTR is.

    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
