After last years hugely sucessful event we are looking to go bigger and better, with more sponsor stalls, more cars, and again we are working to have some race cars along again. Already we have Aaron Mcgill's S15 booked in.

So what do you need to do?

You can post your interest here if you like, and we will pm you the entry forms (or where to find them) as soon as they are ready.

Start polishing your car! pick a category that you might like to be in, criteria might include a theme... so put the thinking caps on!

If you own a business and would like to get involved... send me a pm with your contact number and I'll call you back.

Until then peoples... spread the word!

yeah i would defernatly suggest an over niter....

last year the organisers of the event( mostly from sydney) came up the nite b4 and stayed at the entrance.

some nice hotels up this way that are really close to where the event is being held.

would be good to see ppl coming from far and wide to try and make thsi even as succesful as possible.

Good to see some interest from you guys. We have some Victorians and Queenslanders interested too from what I hear so this is lookin bloody massive. Woot!

I can see now that we should try to organise some accomodation for people. We'll get onto it.

Last year I drove up from Wagga and it took me 5 hours if that's any indication.

Just had a look at the map it should take Canberrans about 4 to 5 hours, depending on traffic

Just north of sydney

Or 3 to 4 hours for those not driving like Shaun + his 33 :bahaha: ! Ah, :jk:'s!Seriously,though;I remember the pic's from last years event:HUGE! I'm working it so I can get there!

Entries are now being taken.

Link to the entry form in my sig or check out the front page of www.skylinesaustralia.com

I reckon it's not too far for you guys to come and it's looking like being massive. You don't have to have to trickest Skylines there. It's largely about participation, sharing knowledge and ogling each others cars.

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
