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.

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....

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?

      I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
