Thanks again to the regulars who make these events happen - rain, hail or shine.

SAU would have to have one of the best car club cultures in the country.

Was awesome to meet some new people & see some familiar faces!

Mark - You forgot the highlight of Abbie, Maddie and (?) running out of the room when Matt got 'cuddles' from Tony & Campbell! LOL!

Leon - Thanks for throwing me the keys to your orange beast. So different to driving Ryan's car!

Can't wait until the next event!

p.s. Sorry Paul/ Kate for not meeting you at Maccas. You went to the wrong one! :-p

Daz.

A sincere thank you to all the volunteers and organisers for a great day even though the weather was very poor. :worship: Should have bought some new tyres rather than the 2.5years old R-specs. They were fun on the skid pan but absolutely terrifying on the highway. Until the next time.......

That had to be one of the fastest weekends ever! Shit weather but an awesome day still. Blown away by how quick the tail dragger minis were on the skid pan! From what im told rwd was the fastest on both back tracks and fwd was possibly fastest on a lot of the skid pan... what AWD?

Biggest credit goes to those who help without being asked! it makes life so much easier and i only wish there was more of you! To those who help when we ask a big thanks, these days are so labor intensive.. So many cones, barries, bollards, marquees and tape get set up and then packed up. Then we pack our own stuff up... Pita!

Seen some awesome footage and photos so far. Bennys bonnet coming up haha, good thing this aint phillip island! Dave holding it flat over a blind hill not knowing where the road goes.. nearly wrote off the daily and campbells off caught by the flaggie on the hill.

As for the next deca keep an eye out for the date release. There will also be two prices, members and non members.

Thanks for a great day all - great organisation (as obviously seems to be the standard) and all the officials carried on as if it was 25 and sunny !

I on the other hand noticed very well that it was raining... now that I have a handbrake, I must get a window fitted for the next event ;)

Huge thanks to all who made the day happen, especially considering the horrible weather!

Had an absolute blast, don't think I was all that quick but it was a good day to learn the new car and get back into some sort of motor sport.

Big thanks to the volunteers and the organisers, during what probably would of been 1 of Victoria’s wettest days.
it was also great to catch-up with members, for a good chat.
The forester was in its element when It went off into the mud at the basketball court…....

Cressida is mine :)

I love it, it's got a twin turbo 1jz in it and its been converted to manual,

Did anyone get any pics of the big corner off the long wang ? Please tell me they did

Thanks for yet another great day.

My wife and sister helped out sitting up on the hill at the long wang just so there was enough officials.

Big shout out to organisers and volunteers.

Even though it was really wet it was still very fun.

That cressida leroy peterson was one of my favorite cars on the day.

Good driving and sounded good.

Whats in it?

I meant to come over and have a chat but never got a chance.

It gave me a scare when you went off on the basketball court! Great recovery though! :)

    • I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium
    • It's more so I'm using the 1x piece line from HEL that goes from the body to the caliper. There's no middle block/mount like the HFM ones or the GKtech ones. There are certain angles/suspension compression where the line actually slightly contacts the ARB. Below of how mine sit (not my photo): How I want it:  
    • Oh I have mine all sitting in boxes ready to go, two sets of rotors, four sets of pads and caliper rebuild kits. They send a survey asking me if I had installed them months ago :p Grinder not necessary to fit the fronts, and not *really* for the rears. They have some good simple videos on how-to. I don't understand brake lines but from what I understand... somehow... OEM lines work, even though people say 350Z and 370Z use different banjo bolts, so it's possible 350'z had some different setup that Nissan changed to the 370Z/R33/R34 system? ....though are a little short, but past-me made a new bolt hole to bolt them to to reach my current fronts so I should be okay... maybe. In any case HFM don't sell any *different* line kits for R33/R34 front brakes than they do for the 370Z kits. So in my mind they must be compatible or they would have different products made to suit the different calipers. Please test and confirm for me kthx.
    • @Kinkstaah HFM will have a spicy BF sale in November, might be a good time to load up on the adaptors, new lines, etc. Then may the best grinder win lol.
    • I actually think the S15 is 80/20. I know I said 70/30 before but perhaps that is the GTT/GTST one. I wanna say it's the BM50 or BM44. I have one for sale if you want it GTSBoy, try your luck. For some reason the R34 GTT one is actually unlabelled, so it's a BM??????
