Along with everyone else, big thanks to the champions who gave up their time so that lunatics could abuse their cars. :)

I have to say, its scary how bad i was at those skippan events.:(..but if keep you foot planted you can somehow convince yourself that you everything will be ok, it easily ranks as some of the most fun i have ever had in the car.

So highlights...

Pete is the "roll back king" :)

Geoff loves the handbrake, Chris gets too excited when im a passenger in the car, lol and vice versa...:)

As a group of ppl going away to enjoy a weekend, couldnt have asked for a better crew of ppl, that goes for the poor WRX boys that we broke on Friday night, if Andrew/Chris bump into Adrian/John etc , tell them they will always hold a special place in my heart:alcoholic:

So many things to rave about...these weekends away rule , roll on Winton...:)

Note to self: Never question Andrews ability to administer swift and deadly punishment for challenging his Wang, especially when you are in a shopping trolley:)

I had absolutely bugger all money to go up there - and I wudnt have been able to handle watching cars ripping up on the skidpan without me doing so.

Ohh well, theres always a next time.

What an awesome weekend! :P I've gotta go find a quiet carpark so I can keep practicing...

Big thanks to Andrew/James and everyone else who helped organise this event.

Good to meet you guys in person too!

BTW - I was driving the stock 05 silver rex which liked doing handbrake turns! Apparently it didn't mind lifting the back wheel either! :)

Cheers,

matt

heh one of my mates (Nismo32) got my reverse park into pit on vid, along with the lexus getting slid around... I have to wait till I get into work to get it off him and post it. Don't think he took any other vids. I spent more time behind the wheel than behind the camera at this event...

Lexus was an interesting beast, but no cred on the pan with an open rear diff.

Hahaha, it sounded tough as though.

Again, a HUGE thanks to Snowy and the SAU guys for organising such an AWESOME day, spewing I had to bail from Taco Bill's so early, did the service get any better?

Did Brisby find a bed for the night?

How many hats were earned?

Is everyone still in one piece?!

I'm still buzzing from this event, I'm SO glad I went - can we do another one next month?!

Benalia, here we come :P

cheers

Ok guys,

We are going to look at a Video, BBQ and Beer night shortly cause we still have most of the free beer we brought up to Shep left over. It seems we were fairly well filled with Margarita's on Sat night.

LOL...locked out? :confused:

There were rumours that one cabin tired to lock me out, but unless you use chains and padlocks, the average door lock can be overcome by the simple mind of a pissed bloke:)

And i wasnt silly enough to sit on the bench 2 nights in a row waiting for the sun to come up over the lake, the kodak moment simply isnt worth the cold now have:(

yeah I had about 1mm of frost on my car on Sat morning at 5am... must be that thickened hide of yours and copious amounts of alcohol in your blood that kept you warm

Well what a huge weekend! Soooooo much beer, fun, laughs and burnouts :P

Just want to say a Big thanks to all the guys who worked hard to put this event together, you did a fantastic job! I'm sure after the success of this year that next year will be even bigger and better if thats possible! Was fun to get the car out on the skid pan and for once be able to hold the foot to the floor and just spin :)

Sat night at Taco Bills....do you reckon they knew what hit them? I remember at one point seeing Baz (the cook) behind the bar with his hands to his head shaking it in dismay. Another one was Al asking the waitress "do you have jugs?". I'd like to say thanks to Pete for covering my Nacho's in "After Death" sauce after saying "hey Adz, get a look at Snowy".....I couldn't work out why looking at him so pissed was all that intersting. When I tasted my nacho's I understood why! Brissy I know how you felt after the F1!

Thanks to Brissy, Geoff and Shiv for run in your cars! All three were animals :)

Was really good to catch up with some of the non SAU Vic guys too, the WRX guys, Fangers and others too! Hope you all made it home safe and thanks again for the top weekend!

Photo's will follow :)

How long does Joel usually take to sort through his pics? He had a great one of Bass throwing water on the pan.

usually takes him at least a few days, he generally has a thousand or so to sort through, damn that day job taking up precious time!

I thought Blaise was gonna make the waitresses cry :P

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
