Wow, What a great weekend! Thanks to the organisers and the officials for all of their hard work.

Results are up so quickly which is awesome, only one thing..... In the results you have me and Sean in a RWD, we were in AWD. ;)

Which means 3rd in AWD for me, best result for me at Deca ever! Awesome.... :D

We just came down to spectate this time but we had just as much fun as always, Saturday night was a cracker, so glad we stayed :D

Keiran: You're driving has gotten much better since I last watched you at a DECA, top work! That was me who made the Supra/water comment, you know how much I love Supras... Also what was in that shot at Taco Baz's?

Shane: Awesome result! Thanks for the passenger ride too, I needed a GT-R fix :D

Juzzy: Bloody good effort given the condition of those tyres!

Leon: You beat Campbell in your own car - YAY lol

I thought dinner run much smoother this time, for me the food and service was better (I had the mexican, a few people had the parmi and said they didn't feel rash hot but I'd say it was more likely the alcohol talking).

Spewing blood!! That one cone on the Mini Wang Finish Gate cost me 1st place...arrgh... :domokun:

Ryan you're a legend getting the results out so fast...congratulations to the winners...missed out narrowly this time...

Awesome!

Some real surprises in the results!

Russell YOU SUCK! Not even top ten! Proof that your DECA Championship win last year was A FLUKE! Campbell sucks at DECA as well as dick.

And Leon, you should be winning these things...its tradition...Ryan won alot when we was doing them...wait...he still wins :( is he really still running them and youre posing Leon?

Top work Shane and Juz reppin AWD but as if a RWD won considering the conditions!

Ash...making excuses again? Of course you are.

Good work Ryan getting the results up so quick - that HAS to be a record! Im sure thats due to someones fancy work on the spreadsheet.

I have a heap of videos uploading atm.

(around 150 in full HD) they are just taking a while....there is 9 gig or so of them.

I "think" I have got most cars at least once. people in the 2nd group prob more than once.

eg roman there is 4 of yours from the skid pan during the day.

Thus I uploaded pics first as much smaller.

there were a few more cameras out there as well and know laith is probably in a worse spot than me frantically uploading.

SO be patient and know they are coming soon.

Awesome!

lol no excuses here, the WD's were well deserved. One can't do 4WD circle work and expect to get a decent time :teehee:

This should be accessible for everyone, a few car shots and some from the night out.

I think between Kate and I we took more pics of Leon and Campbell than anyone else for some reason but there are a few others also.

Massive thanks to Leon, Bec and Ryan (wait, so as not to create further confusion) Ryan, Leon and Bec for organising everything. Big thanks to all the volunteers who stood out in the freezing cold, and of course to Import Monster for sponsoring.

Dan: Thanks for the water and dfloor rescuing, although I still think that Parmi wasn't right!

Mr. and Mrs. Pryor: Was good chatting with you guys, I'll definitely drag Lauren down to the next one (even if only to prove she exists). She also wants to thank you for finally convincing me to go on a holiday, Thai water fights sound good.

Campbell: Thanks for all the shots. I think.

Tim: You're shit.

Thanks to everyone else for the laughs, advice, photos, videos etc. Probably my last run at DECA in the Supra, will probably volunteer for the rest of the year then hopefully buy an R32 or 180 early next year.

Oh and congrats Ryan! Between watching you, Leon and Roman you three all put up an excellent show of why one should buy a 180. Russell you need to get back out there and wave the R32 flag.

I got 21st, not 28th!

I managed like 170+ points on the morning skidpan, then only got like 40 for all my wang runs combined lol. Like I said, I just need to grow some balls and get push myself a little more.

Nah Roman wasn't going for times, he never does. Nevertheless his driving was still very impressive. 180's just seem like an extremely fun car to drive, more than capable of been driven seriously or stupidly.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
