After spending all day Saturday at powercruise I have to say what an awesome event, it was great seeing Paul and Stace, Adrian and a few other SAU guys

I for one can't wait for next year and will be the first to enter :thumbsup:

Congrats to the Skyline people for having a go and doing imports proud

I saw a few of the guys out there on Friday I was with the red RX7 with gold FRs. The Friday was poorly organised, rules were very strictly enforced and not as good as we expected. I didn't go the rest of the weekend, but I've heard it was a hell of alot better!

Except for one Ferrari driver

I was also there on Friday and wasn't impressed at all with the organisation nor the marshalls' one-eyed view towards certain cars. Good to hear that things got better over the weekend.

What happened with this Ferrari? Pics? :)

I did the road trip and have to say it was well worth it.

The number of high quality and big dollar cars was much more than the previous 2 powercruises held in QLD, sorry Qlder's but it's true.

The program was on schedule if you were a Queenslander (laid back as usual) but alot of the sydneysiders were annoyed as things didnt run by NSW times. It wasn't the best time to have the event due to the royal easter show in syd, easternats in vic and cruisetime in qld all happening at the same time.

But at the end of the event I left grinning as I discovered some of the secrets of the VL "PSI" with the 712rwhp RB30DET :cheers:

and guess who smashed the 712rwhp VL in the Street Racing event......owned!!!

no point having over 700bhp and not being able to use it. By the way thats a great photo showing how properly set-up drag suspension should work.

also ....Duncan i was always a circuit racer, so i should have an idea on cornering. Will have my first "real" go at drag racing on the 9th at Compak Attak.

What do ya know - the SAU representation at a circuit was made up entirely of drag racers...

You circuit types really couldn't organise a root in a brothel could ya?

I had a ball and I'm stoked that I now have a power figure for 2RISMO the dirty nitrous cheaterer.

And that should be, "The secrets of the 737hp VL, PSI." What a weapon.

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
