Try and get some decent in-car footage this time, for those of us who can't be there :( Best of luck, maybe Gav and Chris will have gearbox issues :whistling:

It'll be during the day so should be able to get some decent footage,

yeah anything is possible with these boxes, Chris seems to be very gentle with his, but with the torque Gav is putting out the thing eats boxes for breakfast, I assume he's still running the standard one ?

Need to find time in the next couple of weeks to put my OS box back in so hopefully it wont be me have box issues... but I'm thinking of doing a couple of runs down the strip next wednesday before I change boxes, so I can compare 60foot times between the standard and OS 1st,, definately wont be doing to much clutch frying tho, don't have time to rebuild that before T/A .. I'll put the word out if it's going to happen :thumbsup:

Hey guys this a post of some urgency and look has a few of us worried and rightly so.

Track battle is coming and the number of local entries is dramatically low, we only have 11 drivers to represent what has been advertised as a huge following of drift in w.a, which I also believe to be true. Shit I kno it, and many of u also know we have a fairly decent following and its only going to get bigger, but when all the media come over and find that we are struggling to make the numbers, this will not encourage such events to come back, and going back to those years in d.a, we will lose rounds to such places as Tasmania(and I kno how freakin pissed I was)

Seriously, what are peoples reasons for either

a ) leaving it last minute

b ) not interested or

c ) other,

Dont say entry fee, cos how long has it been since our last event, Collie? We havent had a round 1 and we have almost NO drift until feb next year which is a cda. Is it not worth the $380 to drive alongside first rate Australian drivers and just have generally freakin good time?

I have LITERALLY poured every cent I have to make this round and seriously been a bum not going out socially etc so I can be ready. Why you may ask? Because I dont want to have a car iv spent $20+k on sitting in my driveway collecting dust. And I intend on drifting in the many years to come.

With the new track setup the cost of tyres/fuel/etc is dramatically reduced aswell.

Absolute kudos goes to out Keith for all that he has done past, present and Im sure future also. He is going above and beyond to inject life into what was a diminishing sport.

I mean cmon, he buys a transporter and sends our drivers to S.A, sends them over to WTAC, also sends them over to ADGP and G1, this incurs a MASSIVE cost to which he derives no profit from, just pure pleasure and self satisfaction he gets to and provide the avenue for others to do what we love most, DRIFT! He even has had a massive hand in the ADGP. He has been raving about how big drift is in W.A, and for everyone to get here and get a half assed reception, man I can understand how much disappointment he may feel if it comes to that.

Hey now some of you may look at this and say meh, some may also agree with what I have to say, but plain and simply all i want from this is as many entries as we can for this event.

Id love for this event to be a massive success so we can host plenty more in the future.

So cmon guys get motivated, call up all the favours your owed, get ur shitters ready and send those entries in. For me, I know Ive tried on this forum and il send txts out to all the drivers I know too. If it works, was worth the time iv spent writing this out, if it doesnt, il still have a blast at the event but have piece of mind I know I tried to help with this venture.

See all you guys around the traps.

Regards,

Harry Buck aka Muddy.

P.S Those of you who are worried bout cost and using 235/45/r17s, I can get Duruns for $68ea, hit me up if you need some.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
