I'm surprised no one had suggested coming to some drift days at eastern creek...

Yeah it's a bit more to enter...about $100 but there is a wet pan that you can slide all day on and not chew up your tyres.

There is plenty of people drifting autos on the wet and I've gone to about 10 drift days now and I've never broken anything on the car....apart from tyres because now I've moved onto the dry track and love smoking it up.

Do a Google search for driving sports or driftmob for more info

the reason I didnt mention it was nearly every single one of those days I have seen, is on a week day.

most people work at least 5 days a week.

you also have to join their club and get a CAMS license IIRC.

just easier and cheaper to get your AASA, and pay the smaller fee for a club texi day.

it was also coming up a lot sooner.

just my views.

yeah your right, you do need your CAMS licence, but that only costs $50 and you can do it on the day.

Joining a club is optional, it just makes the drift days a little bit cheaper, and most of the time they are on friday nights or saturdays..

Dont need anything besides cloths, closed shoes and a street licence and $250. its on a wet skidpan so you wont burn to much rubber, they sit in the car with you and teach u, did it at the start of this year, will be going back with my GTR they let u cut sick great fun.

    • 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?
    • 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).
    • 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).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
