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.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
