remeber last year when i first join in here, we have a wonderful Drag day with RPM.

plenty of chance to run, able to chat with other members and check out their car.

still remeber timmy did over 20 run and run a very good time.

there is plenty of drift day now but no drag day at all.

the drag night in AIR is okay but i hate the wait and lack of chances to relax.

anyone interest at the idea?

are you talking a private occassion here. if so i would be interested. although i havent dragged before at air im sure my jitters and butterflies wouldnt be as bad as if it was a public meeting in front of spectators. also wouldnt mind knowing how fast the 180 actually is.

I got 14 runs in last Wednesday night, including a break in the middle and went home early. Was a great night, except the start line was too slippery and I found out the other day I was down 4psi (due to a cracked silicon hose). Next time Gadget - next time .....

The last one was awesome. Small crowd, close up views and nice relaxed atmos.

Another one would be wicked... I reckon I could even convince Jaffa to run the lumpy machine :wave:

Bloody hell, if he doesn't, ill nick it for the day haha :wave:

Perhaps a combined day with the LS1 lads? Bit of 4 v 6 v 8 rivalry :wave:

haha, yeah was a top day:)  yeah ill be in for the next one. can ring AIR and organise it, but its not cheap. About $4000 for the track hire, so you need a good turn out and money up front

same as last time, around 50 cars, $80 each.

I was thinking Skyline Aust, LS1, Nissan Silvia, Club Psi and the GSR/EVO

a mix of 4,6,8 :/

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
