I'll be there - hoping to lower my PB to a mid 13 (or thereabouts) from the 13.9 I did a couple of weeks ago before the car was tuned. Traction will be the issue though - damm Falkens! :)

It would be good to get a heap of Skylines out there on the night and hopefully the weather is dry and cool(ish) - looking forward to it.

I will be spectating.

Yeah, the radar looked ok mid morning, but it's not looking so promising now...there's rain areas popping up everywhere :rofl:

I'll check it again in an hour's time, but if it's not looking any better, I'll probably give it a miss and look to get out there next week instead.

Outdoor temp here is 22.4c

This time the last 3 meetings its been up around 28c which means hopefully it will be under 20c by the time racing starts :rofl::)

Now all I have to do is workout a way to get my jack/wheels there :rofl:

Sorry guys, I'm out - the radar is showing a heap of showers heading towards Penrith and I'm guessing that it'll probably continue along to WSID as well which is pretty annoying. I was keen to run tonight, but I don't want to rock up to get only 1 or 2 runs (if that) because of the rain. I'll definately be there next week though...

Good luck ben if you still decide to go tonight :rofl:

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
