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.

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.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
