The event went ahead as planned, and the rain held off so that racing wasn't interrupted.

It was this biggest turnout yet, with about 150 entrants, including a number of very quick cars.

Keir Wilsons drag car managed a best of 9.06, and on his final pass was set to make a 8sec pass, but at half track the input main shaft broke. Keir was very positive about the event and plans to be back next year:D

Thanks to all those people that came down to watch, I'm sure you appreciate the high standard of cars that were there.

It was great to see DirtyDezza and Rep003 do so well in the ET classes, proving you didn't need to be the fastest cars to do well. Also nice to see ND4SPD back on the raod with his awesome new engine :drooling:

Well done all the SAUWA entrants, I hope you had fun, lets make sure we continue to support this great event.

Cheers

Drag Combat was awsome :)

I had abit of fun at the beginning pulling in to get my car check to find it had blown the water line from engine to turbo, out of the blue , took 4hrs or so but we got it off and replace it with a new one :D then got the car check out just before it closed (thanks pauly :))

Racing was ok, onyl got 3 runs :( but had heaps of fun, and did some alright burnouts :) couldnt make any good time, car just spun off the line :( race a 11second 180sx (hyperdriev) in my last Sport RWD race i had 3second headstart but the car went noo where off the line ;) so that was the end for me :D

What can i say an awsome event, enjoy giving the flame show in the pits area my car loves limiter action :rofl:

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      The 32 still sits untouched with the broken gearbox. So a little off topic but not worth having a whole new thread. The daily starlet has gotten back on the road after 9 months. Suspected blown HeadGasket at a track day resulted in a bit of scope creep rebuild. The motor got a full tear down, pressure testing, machined for MLS HG, ARP head bolts, new bearings, all new seals etc also noticed some fatigue on the stock exhaust manifold so obviously the answer was a steam pipe manifold and highflow turbo. The exhaust was also looking tired with some rust holes. So I got a slightly over kill system made up consisting of Vibrant resonator and muffler with a highflow cat. The new highflow turbo had a larger inlet so instead of adapting the old intake got a case of the might as wells and had a nicer alloy intake made After the run in was finished i bought a (probably considered retro/vintage) EBC becasue "might as well"

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is kind of what I expected given the use case. I took my liners out for track days too.... It makes me consider just getting a diffuser and not bothering with the arch liners themselves. For the most part I would like to avoid water/mud/jank splashing up from under the car onto the bottom of the engine, lines, wiring, etc etc. (but brake ducts are cool too). Especially given this post on SAU here: Where it's implied you have to cut them because the actual tub is different? Which is pretty damn worrying because that is where the liners rub in a GTR with wider wheels... I definitely won't want to pay $2000 for plastic then cut them up. It also means said wider wheels rub on the tub in a GTT? FML. That said, I have found some evidence someone ran a 295/30/18 without scrubbing these liners. (and by extension.. the tub).
