Err... I pay money. I get to thrash my car and beat Ash in his kiddy fiddling homo erectus GTR. Good enough for me

I agree with this. I've dont the same. Still love my drifting and it only helps you steer a car straight. Too may people out there with RWD circuit cars that can't drive or correct a sideways car.

How does hitting walls make you a better driver? I learnt the same lesson at Calder grifts. No talent and no money means I will stick with what I know, and that is driving the fastest silver R32 GTSt with an RB20 with a Momo seat and Panasonic CD player in the country. Sure its a small group ... but importantly its an exclusive group but...

didn't realise Paul D was back making up classes for himself lol

Maybe an uninterrupted incar angle lap video would be a better promotion tool than that map.

I'll be there regardless, but it's easy to understand where Noel's coming from

So who's entering from here?

See the Vic thread Dane:

Myself/Richo/Martin are in so far. I think a few more might be in the next couple of days based on discussions goin on last week.

SAU-Vic will also have a stand/display for the Motive Car Show - info on that tomorrow after committee meeting tonight :D

Noel is just complaining for the sake of an e-war now as it has "drifters" in the same suburb. :rolleyes:

I mean look @ map of any track, on paper they never look anything like what it is actually like to drive. Let alone @ 150-200km/h like you are on the wall of the dome which is quite the level of fun :D

Shame its on same weekend as Sandown... tough decision but Dandown is getting my money

read the first post, you can do Sun only if you are doing Sandown :thumbsup:

I'm doing the Sandown and Track Battle Sunday, man up Troy! Oh there is a PI the weekend after this as well. So a heap of track time coming up pre Nats, get the car sorted!

Also no sound limits are Calder, not that it matters for me.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
