Only $13 if your spectating....also... crew member doesn't have to be in the same car. It cost me $30 whether or not I have a crew member so I don't mind if another non racing Skyline comes in behind me as crew and support car if i'm on my own.

I just love an optimist..... Mick got HIS guards rolled so that MY big wheels will fit. Hehehehe!.... now....what was Santa going to bring me this Christmas?.. oh yes...I was hoping for an Apexi super suction intake kit. :D

they only really pick on you these days if your car is asking for it, i mean over the top rice wing, ass of the car is sagging (ala cut springs).

im usually down there, i followed 2 skylines out last night, nis33 and a r32, they seemed together but I was headed elsewhere anyway.

only really know mick when hes down there :D

i think mre said it right there, personally i have never had a problem with police there, they just cruise up and down the isles.. usually checking out the cars..

i think its a bit of you show them some respect, they show you some...

like if you and your mates are standing there saying pig jokes, then you deserve to be booked

I go down there occasionally and am yet to be given any grief by the police. As Boxhead mentioned, it's a mutual respect thing. Do the right thing and they'll leave you alone. Start doing burnouts and screaming up and down the lanes, and you'll get booked. Pretty simple really.

I do take the 33 from time to time, but it hasn't been for a while, mainly due to the fact that some tosser dinted my driver's door in a carpark, then ANOTHER tosser opened their door on the SAME SPOT a couple of weeks later... argh. A lot of people probably wouldn't notice it's there at a casual glance, but I know it's there and it shìts me to tears. Oh, and they got the front guard too. I think the first one was deliberate. Would have loved to have found them in the act, they wouldn't have walked away, that's for sure. It might come out tonight, not sure yet, I'm up for another coast run and the last couple of times I've brought the bike. Hmm...

    • Yeah, the thread is only nearly 20 years old.
    • Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!
    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 😋 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
