12 days and counting....

RESULTS!

Well done to all who competed! :thumbsup:

Another thanks to all the people who helped out on the day which made it possible to run the day and have as much fun as we did! :worship:

Nope! Only the arvo battles :)

What a crock! You Victorians just dont want to put up that a NSW GTR won on the skidpan :nyaanyaa:

Hurry up next DECA! More launches and tearing up that joint is needed :cheers: .... oh and beers!

are you good with IT/coding? I made the current deca autocalc spreadsheet for the last deca last year, it still needs a few tweaks which I will do before the next deca. the previous spreadsheet looked to be all manual sorting/scoring whereas now it's all coded and formula based but still the time killer is manually entering in 600 times for people.

i'm not in IT (I did mech eng) so my coding is below average and i'm sure there's more that i could do with it. basically next thing i want to do is auto timing or something using iphone/android or anything that lets you enter the car number and start timing on a phone/laptop which would automatically log the times to a file that can be put into the spreadsheet.

other than that, the only thing i can think of that will help save time is adding some code to the spreadsheet to automatically generate all the scrutineering forms for each entrant (assuming that's still done manually).

lol I know, and I appreciate the effort.

I know i'm not part of the committee or anything but if you wanna chuck the results my way one deca I'll put them all up. I have far too much spare time.

Hey now, I distinctly remember knocking a 400+awkw GTR out of the battles with a sub 150rwkw Supra! Unsure who was driving but that at least has to be a mark of shame on the NSW wall.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
