Was a wicked day! Thanks guys for setting it up :)

I hate to say it, but i'm not a Nissan guy, but watching the 33's launch in the wet was unreal!

Falcon started haemorrhaging vital fluids, but we kept it going and got it home.

I was playing with a few cheap cameras from ebay too, here are the vids:

Sam's gold/black R31 with an $8 ebay keyring cam - Was taped to the bar. Will mount it on roof or bonnet next time so theres some perspective I think

My drift pig XR6 with a $30 ebay camera - my fault it's shit cos I set it to 320p instead pf 720p :domokun:

Great Video's, especially Eric's compalation (even though there is no Red buzz box)

Many thanks to everyone who made this day happen, Special thanks to Steve for organising and to all the guys who were willing to get wet with me to do the timing and fix the cones.

Also a big thanks to the guys who let me go for a drive in their cars during lunch and the battles (Paul, Sean, Jay, Tats, Anna) had a ball of time in some Hipo GTR's and got some sliding action in the 350 and the Chaser. But I think Anna's MX5 was the most satisfying, up against Aggro in Sean's 34.

Kinda wish it didn't rain, but at the same time it was good fun in the wet.

P.S. My 32 WILL be at the next one and it will show you its the one to have for texi's.... 32 Pride

So here is a little teaser of what I have... but the colouring is a little off

      I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By hardsteppa · Posted

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
