Got my copy of the dvd today

Excellent filming skills terry thanks for the dvd

Was layed out well and great to watch

Had a awesome day pity my tyres didn't last very Long but next time round I'm going to bring 3 pairs and turn down the power as it was a handful and just chewed thru the tyres

When is the next texi being held ?

Details for the next Texi will be announced closer to the date - we've got a few other things lined up for Club Members in the mean time.

If you're not a paid-up Club Member, why not? There are quite a few events that we put on which are exclusive to Members, and the only way you'll hear about them before they're on is if you're part of SAU-NSW.

Thanks for holding the day guys, had a great time burning some rubber, appreciate the great pics, going to be hard to choose a new wall paper.. Can't wait to hear about the upcoming events as a newly signed member

ahh good old z, that was fun to hoon in.

Was there ever a "go to whoa" comp at texi? Wouldn't be hard just to set it up between changing courses. Could be fun to test the skills vs power ;)

I wasn't able to be at this one, but I have been thinking that a good addition might be a little more instruction and technique. Yes skids are fun, but I think there is also a space for learning good habits too. I think because the exec tend to be experienced competitors they design for challenge but not always for beginners.

A potential idea would be to reserve the first 1/3 of the day for some basic skidpan skills, people who aren't interested in that could arrive at say 11 and miss it all. Suggested exercises like go to whoa (launching and braking), basic 180o turn around a cone (handbrake/understeer control/flick oversteer) and maybe a simple track like multiple loop below (smooth driving, multiple 180 turns and easy to get right)

In the end, a texi is not really a doughnut competition is it....

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
