Its not really for the "racing it" thing its more to have fun we the people and cars that we enjoy.. If we had 10 Skylines from the forums go there all together and race it would be great everybody would be more into it and push each other further then you would see awhole bunch more skylines coming out faster and faster. Is there only 1 10second Gts-t in the country ?

The reason I didn race either of my car's is becuase I was ill with some gamblibacktor bloody chicken disease or something sorry or else I would have.I only just made it through the two days but it was worth it :( and im still crook now.

I also saw that 180sx from hardcore performance they really made a name for themselves there it was such a beaten up old bomb looking car couldnt believe it when i saw under the bonnet had some setup issues holding it back on the weekend though.

Dont get me wrong guys Im not having a go at people It would just be great to make a SAU appearance in large and get some big power cars there.

BR,

I was there both days, pretty good i must say. damn hot ass weather tho...

saw a battered up 180sx with a sweet RB26DETT with single turbo conversion, speaking to the dude, said it made 400+rwkw...the motor looked pretty serious...

but yeh...

Just because you've got a fast car does not mean you have to race it.  

and just another thing i wanted to add, every second car in surfers paradise is a skyline!!!

Good to see the skyline population taking off up there!

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
