Thanks to JEM and SAU execs for the great night. I was the guy asking too many questions about circuit cars -sorry!

I also found Nitto's pitch interesting, learnt a lot about forged internals etc. It was also interesting that he didn't mention any prices which I found amusing. Hopefully I will see you all again at the next track day when my car is up and running :)

never too many questions.

I was actually a little surprised at how few questions there were.

the talks were very in depth though.

, on the nitto front, if you have to ask.....

Had a great old time.

+1 for the guys at JEM putting on the night. Wasn't expecting it to go so late, but there was a lot of info to get through. Put the tech in tech night at some stages!

Was interesting seeing/ hearing tuning philosophy's and personal prefernaces.

I was going to ask Andrew about whether or not a balanced billet crank negated the need for a damper pulley kit on some cars - but Eric seemed to answer it for me before I could get to Andrew privately.

Bit shy still at my age hehe...

I did have a talk to one of the JEM staff at the end.

He himself could have given the type of talk on builds that Andrew gave being an RB specialist full time at JEM.

I'd like to hear him next time.

All the speakers were superb! :happy:

+1 thank for all involved.

The best part of it was that every answer was explained on a level so that a novice could understand. Even if a few questions were very technical.

Really well done.

I'm now more not sold on E85 for the costs. Great in a new car, but the $ to convert seems too high.

Plus, I'm convinced that once Julia see's it becoming popular, she'll slap tax's on it so the cheap bowser benefit will disappear.

Thanks to everyone at JEM and the execs at SAU for organising!

Was a fantastic night, covered a lot of bases and such a variety of topics.

Bobby's new project is absolutely incredible in person. Can't wait to spot it at the local Coles sometime soon! :)

Edit - great photos guys!

I wasn't able to get many shots in - no experience shooting cars but guess I can change that :P

Spent most of my time meeting and greeting and a big kudos to Nick for the lift home :)

As covered by other people, not many questions were asked mostly due to how in depth the talks were - very informative on a lot of areas and also the openness of what goes on too. Z Tune and "Skola Tune" GTRs were very impressive.

Wow looks like it would have been a great night, I'm kicking myself for pulling the pin, the Tom Tom said I would get there just after 9 so I pulled out thinking I look like an idiot pulling up as everything's rapping up. Looks like I missed a top night.

haha I had the same problem, was way late due to M5. On the bright side I missed most of the nitto bit :)

    • Ironically the GTT was quite reliable in the 7 years of ownership. From memory I've only had to replace a radiator and coilpacks out of inconvenience 
    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
