Yep, those who were there yesterday would know that it's just as much fun to skid and slide in the rain!

If you weren't there yesterday, why not??? It's an awesome day, so make sure you get yourself down to our next ones when they are announced. post-435-13950440857651_thumb.jpgpost-435-13950440993428_thumb.jpg

I've decided that next time I get to do timing, it's only fair that all FWD cars get an Instant Wrong Direction penalty.


Your power goes the wrong end of the car. Obvious penalty if obvious.

2nd'd with the clean up, it got smashed, heaps of hands make light work :yes::yes:

photos will be inc soon

Great day, huge thanks to everyone who assisted, and everyone who entered.

Great to meet you all, see you next time!

Thanks!

Any feedback from CAFE2U?

Do we ask the question on their FB page?

I called up Yesterday 8.30 am and Margaret a spokesperson was asked a leading question as to whether CAFE2U had a policy about what happens if their primary van operator is sick, that a backup operator takes his/her place? She said, "Most definitely."

I said, "Well the system broke down yesterday (Sunday)!!!"

I added, "Not only did he not turn up, he also never call for backup, he also had the temerity to suggest we were only worth 1 hour's work and he was thinking of serving us whilst on cold n flu tablets. I'm a pharmacist and you never ever serve food n drink whilst flu is still virulent! "

After 9am the manager Karen called me and stated beyond her profuse apology that this will never happen again under her watch.

We'll see next month. At least the lady operator has already called up to confirm. I did issue a warning to Karen that a Plan B must always be in place.

MMmmm.. I didn't actually know there would be coffee, so I brought my usual Thermos of black gold =-D

Cafe2U is a franchise, so there is no benefit to the sick guy to make any effort to cover his rounds... he probably can't even get in trouble!

I suggest we try and replace Cafe2U with Harry's Cafe de Wheels... so I can get a fancy hotdog. ;o)

Hmm i might be responsible for most of the rubber left on the strip (R34 4dr), as i remember some of the guys telling me i had flicked rubber everywhere, coupled with some incriminating photos of my shredded tyres =/

Thanks to the organisers and those who stayed to clean up.

Overall, it was a great day. I'm looking forward to seeing the video.

Great photos as well.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
