It's quite common for most show'n'shine events to stop people leaving too early.

It was more the fact that we didn't sign anything before entering and there was very little to do that afternoon. Had we signed some papers as an entrant then it would have been different.

All driving entrants knew. Seems a bit more info to showing entrants was due. Perhaps having a greater deliniation from people showing cars to visitors / spectators.

I quite enjoyed yesterday, makes a change of pace from being bombarded with loud music and other crap to keep peoples attention. Had a nice nap in the shade while waiting for the arvo session. Bit better than being stuck up north here today with the iron ore dust again..

Fair enough, all good feedback for the organisers :thumbsup:

good day out, all in all. didnt stay for the motorkhana, although i looked over tricksters car when it was parked up, impressive mate. i would love to see you mikey and paul go head to head at barbs one day.

good to catch up with corey, the two stolen R35 GTRs were recovered. 55 K worth of damage, insurance didnt cough up the whole amount and funny thing is they left the VE clubsport most likely because it had GPS tracking.

smart khunts..

Lies! Needed more T04Z :thumbsup:

are you positively annoyed my friend?? i would ditch the twins and go single setup gt35/40r garrett, t04z would be better for a 20B and ported. the car is very capable once setup properly, old boy was lacking suspension mods and driver skillz. i assume. a short track motorkhana like that is very subjective to driver + car..

i would like to see an even playing field and a few straights, then things would get interesting. tbh the evos would destroy most of those cars on a real race track.

gt3788R is not a bad compromise between gt35 and gt40/TO4z

as for evos destroying most things there, its so much more the driver than the car, eg. Chris in his orange R32 GTR destroys all comers pretty much everywhere :yes:

I think an average driver can get in an Evo and go reasonable quick up to a point, after that its more the driver than the car , my 2c :thumbsup:

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
