i think it was possible a couple years ago but what happened was people just took a stack of forms and voted for themselves 100's of times haha.

Opening does depend on city of melb. But maybe a 930-1130 opening next year.

Having cars moving around while the general public are walking around is tried to be kept minimal.

In saying that you will always get people coming late.

It's a great location, but i'm just wondering if the event is going to be held back by having a narrow opening window on a Sunday morning. Pros and cons, but maybe we can try something else next year that allows some of the stragglers to turn up? I know the entry time was more than communicated but we all know it's going to happen, and if the net result is having a bigger and better event, then maybe it's worth allowing a bit more for those that can't get up early enough?

Would definitely increase turnout, trouble is finding a location that will let you do it. I think Waterfront City were pretty strict on their move in and move out times, because they don't want it to interfere with walking traffic too much. Hopefully next year the events guys get started on organisation a bit earlier and it will give them some room as far as possible locations...if you can find a good one though, let them know!

Agreed, just need some way to control it, for as Pat said some people just vote for themselves lol. And members of the public probably wouldn't want to fill out 10 classes with votes. Maybe have a "crowd pleaser" class where randoms can vote on their favourite overall?

I think the location is very good.

Docklands as a decent setup.

This girl :P

Yeh fare point. I wonder if waterfront city have another location. I think the premo spots we will need to pay for

Hey John I didn't get a chance to chat to you on the weekend, didn't know you are from the peninsula, where abouts? My fams place is near Flinders.

And Birds crowd pleaser class would be awesome. Is there a problem with people voting for themselves if someone hands out the voting cards instead? Therefore no one can get doubles?

Its a tough one and no easy way around the voting but maybe its a decision which is to be left up to the club execs (similar to other car shows) otherwise people are always going to vote for themsleves and their friends.

Just another option.

The NUR with plates INURI belongs to my mate... We tried to get his car in the event but it was closed lol

I see,

Would have been great to see it enter.

Any chance your friend bought that car from one of the owners of JAKS Motorsports (Alex)?

    • If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.
    • Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.
    • EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
    • Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.
