Excellent day to be out.  The privateers generally sucked except for a few like the shoddy looking 180, Catherine's VK (you try drifing a boat), the Porker, and a couple other Silvias.

The Aussie entries weren't too bad.  

The D1 drivers.....Well, their in a class of their own, NUTZ!!!!  I don't understand why you would want to drift a corner at 100km/h+ while waving the car door open...  MAAAAAD!!!

Too bad about the kiss b/w the Benny's BMT180 and the HPI CA18 but as long as Fulllock keep their word, the fixing will be free.  Dunno bout 140 degree water temps though...Maybe someone should have told the D1 gut to turn the A/C off :D

I've captured all my footage and it's a 4.6gig avi file so I'm gonna put it all on a DVD for myself.  The D1 dancer was pretty cool too!!  I got him strutting his stuff and stlyin to Ms Christina!!

I hope u burn me a copy to man.

ive got the perfect view of that as i was filming right down the front on the right in front of that corner.... if i was on broadband i would post it up.

i reckon those guys in the truenos were pretty good... minus one of them.

i got a pic of me and horus with i think his name is Kenji? or something... the crazy one with no front teeth dancing with the girls at the end :D i also got them all to sign my HPI mag

thats one cool thing about them they were pretty easy going... the dancing one gave me, my cousin and horus one of his japanese cigarettes :)

Wish I could have been there:(

The s14 with s15 front (if it was red with black roof) was James Vahoumis' car from D1 Garage in SA. He also brought Bai (Signal's D1 driver) over for the event - they did a photo shoot over here for speed, and I got thrown around in the passenger seat of the 180 (same colours as the S14) by him (bai) was about the most fun you can have with your clothes on - its bizaare, he was so bloody relaxed and casual when driving.

Hopefully I will be able to make the next one - big ups for all that organised it all.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
