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.

    • UPDATE: Yes the GSP Axles are compatible. I installed it on my R34 today and they are working a treat! Turns out that the S13, S14, S15, and 200 SX all used the same axles as the HR34, and ER34 NA models. Which is 2 bolt x 3 pairs.  
    • 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
