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:

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
