Whats it matter, perhaps a few errrors were made, completely understandable, i think everyone that was there knows who was doing the business, and those that were trying to emulate their favourite sprintcar driver:)

It was so crazy, thanks to all SAU comittees and Rexie's officials for spending time and put together a rock n' roll event.

I don't care if i come last or not but if anyone has footage of my car on their cam and don't mind make me a copy would be greatly appriciate, i'll pay or swap blanks ...ect

Love watching Mr Brisby rippin' it.

...and those that were trying to emulate their favourite sprintcar driver:)
oh so that's what you were doin
Dave and Marky: Speed and accuracy are for showoffs like Snowy :)

Your 'form over function' approach was certainly enjoyable to watch - and the super taxi was GREAT FUN to throw around!  

Thanks again Dave, and thanks to ah... your tyre supplier! :)

Yes the top players were great to see, but the day was made so much more enjoyable by the likes of you guys - and of course Pete's KnightRider reverse-turns - hamming it up and having fun. That's what it's all about :(

LOL! Well your comedic talent wasn't upto scratch so I figured maybe your driving might be a little better! Plus I just wanted an excuse to get back out on the skidpan ;)

Tyre supplier? I'm not quite sure what you are talking about :innocent:

Perhaps i should have read the Supp Regs a little closer...i thought there was a prize for "Car most likely to blow up" , i would have been in there with a chance along with Shiv, the wonderful sound of ignition cuts at +8,000rpm:)

muhaha yeh i'd have to agree - try closer to 9000rpm!

I'm happy that the car showed that its been modded sensibly and because of that can take a thrashing - still i'll take it easy on RWD mode on the skid pan next time :(

Interloper - thanks mate. I had a good time just having a chat with ya waiting for the next round of the 'khana.

Funky - yeh u're right dude, the semi comp rubber didn't help (that and the fact its the first time i've ever really driven it hard since i've only had it about 4months since it landed)

The people doing the timing were being "un-helpfull" as far as putting times down next to the right numbers (taking into account some numbers were missing due to withdrawals)

for which events???? (hopefully none of those i was timing!!!!) lol

Very pretty sunrise - Xtrail temp said it was 0 outside.

Lining up to watch the Bayside experts show us how its done.

This helps you get a true apreciation for just how big the skidpan is.

The day is finished... time to prepare for the REAL fun.

James & Snowy: He's the guy in the hat!

Hilarity ensues

Big hats. Big glasses.

Usual stuff - plates, glasses... the cash register...

They're not dents... more like aerodynamic modifications

For some - it most certainly was.

At this stage of the game, Blaise was thinking having Troy between his legs was the worst thing that could happen. Little did he know a shopping trolley lurked just around the corner...

Look to Joel for real event photos - I was too busy loving my megaphone.

It's just like me talking, only louder!

    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
    • I don't know the answer to this, but did you have a look at the parts diagrams on amayama.com and see what they list around it for your car? As an example this should be it on my car. That's how I would check for required clips and things like that. But, I take no responsibility for you ending up with a box full of random OEM hoses, washers and clips after going down that path a few times. This definitely has never happened to me
