As said massive weekend.

Thanks to all that put this weekend together

And a big thanks you to all that helped out yesterday.

I can still taste them fuel shots.. what was that ??

I picked up the green helmet and blue jumper and took them back to the motel . But they were taken from my ute so i thought they were claimed.

I will chase up who took them and get back to ya.

Cheers.

"This extraordinarily strong spirit (95% alc/vol) needs to be treated with respect. It is questionable whether the human body is meant to digest such strong substances. Being effectively pure ethyl-alcohol, it is more commonly used in cooking, for medicinal purposes or by home perfume makers. One customer recommends it above all else as therapy for arthritic pain, and has been massaging his joints with it for years!

At any rate, the premium price of this Pure Spirit goes some way to ensure it is used sparingly and thoughtfully. Drunk diluted & chilled it traditionally makes a fine accompaniment to fish dishes. 95% alc/vol "

I was VERY VERY sick....Thanks Keiren (I think?)

WOW is all i can say about this weekend.

Friday was awesome having a few drinks and talking garbage, was damn good as usual.

Doing timing on the long wang was pretty good; having the quick guys absolutely roaring towards you mid 3rd then having the car step out slightly coming into the gate under brakes pointing towards me was pretty breathtaking :)

It was also good to see the little differences between the quicker guys...i may have noticed a few things that will help so WATCH OUT next time!

Also having a ride in Pauls GTR, freaking crazy; Leons 180, awesome; and Timmy and Campbells, pisser; was seriously awesome fun. Some really good slides happening there. Loved Shanes 4 wheel slides :D

Saturday night....pwoahhhhh....2 spiritus shots (thanks alot Kieran!), great RSL food, 33 $4 dollar vodkas in one go, boobs at Rawhide, what more do I need to say...

Definately a standout deca weekend...and I didnt even drive :)

another great deca :thumbsup: i really liked the MK layouts. can't really slide around like some of the turbo cars but the handbrake was getting a good workout. thanks to the organisers and the officials who helped out :cheers:

Great time as per usual.

Food much better and far quicker than taco as well..tho might go back there next weekend for a fishbowl or 2..

A massive thanks to all of those that helped out.

HOWEVER, we really need mroe helpers next time.

we ended up with many people standing around doing nothing and having to tag drivers in and out of the timing.

the short of it, if that keeps going we won;t be able to run these events. and with the many stoppages for helpers means less track time as well.

enough doom and gloom bring on pics and results!!!!

Another exceptionally well run event by SAU!

Was great to meet some of the SAU new-schoolers & run a muck with the usual faces!

33 vodkas was just an epic concept & I still can't beleive we managed to get served them all! Go Shepparton! Lol!

I'll upload some videos of teh green wheeled STI shortly...

Daz & Lisa.

I saw the pic on facebook when I got back to the motel and thought "WTF - How the hell is that responsible service of alcohol" LOL, cant complain though - at $4 each it was a good price!

Great event, very well run

Had an amazing time

Thanks to the organisers for putting up such an awesome day

Can't wait for the next one

Here's a short video of some of my runs (not the best driving)

Edited by Undefined

I swear DECA just keeps getting better and better. Massive thanks to all the organisers, helpers, those that gave me rides and advice. Big thanks to... was it Wayne? (I'm terrible with names) the guy who stood out in the sun all day on the skidpan. Layouts were awesome this time too. I swear that last battle layout was designed for my car as my gears would rev out just as I reached each cone.

My appologies for the E95 shots, I'm unsure if all these thanks are genuine or sarcastic.

What amazed me more than the 33 (+15 ordered 5min later) vodka drinks was how fast they vanished! One moment we have a table full, 10minutes later they're all gone.

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
