2012 Classic Japanese Show And Shine - Location


Recommended Posts

Below is an e-mail received from Ray, alot of others would have gotten it as well, but for those that didn't:

I've been at the event at lakeside for 2010 and 2011, both were excellent days.

So not sure what others think about the relocation.

THIS IS FOR YOUR ATTENTION

Relating to the 2012 JAPANESE NATIONALS ( CJSS)

With the re-sounding success of the 2011 Japanese Nationals held at Lakeside

2012 Japanese Nationals may be re-located

The decision to hold the 2012 Japanese Nationals has been decided to be held at IPSWICH.

This is not my doing

The CEO of Queensland Raceways emailed me with the following statement

Quote “As has been discussed we wanted more competitive activities, and to make a 2 day event, hence we have decided to move the event to Ipswich where safety margins are much higher for track activities” un quote

I was not present at this meeting.

The previous 2 years were combined joint venture, now we have been invited to a show and shine display.

This is not my feelings, so I am putting it to you, the entrants and friends, to vote on where you would like 2012 Japanese Nationals

I have listed a voting poll on the front home page of www.classicjapaneseshowandshine.com

1/ we stay at Lakeside

2/ we move to Ipswich

3/ we go back to Bald Hills for static display

4/ we find another location

Please tick the appropriate box and hit “vote” that is all that is required. Anytime it can be done

I have a meeting with Keith Lewis, and John Tetley Tuesday 31st January 2012

I would appreciate your help and assistance in confirming where and what we do for 2012 before the 29th January

Personally unless the event is as was presented in 2011, then we need to relocate.

The drags wont be part of it at Ipswich

If you have anything to add, please email me. I don’t wish to see the Japanese Nationals turn into a TIME ATTACK event as is now suggested. It is getting away from the original meaning of Classic Japanese Show and Shine

Regards RAY FERGUSON Co-ordinator for Japanese Nationals

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • 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.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
