Spent NYE in Canberra, drove home late yesterday and saw a lot of nice cars on the freeway headed towards Canberra, including a rude white R34, (I suspect its the BD4s car).

I was pleasantly surprised by the amounts of imports headed down, plus plenty of nice old Chevies on trailers. Shame im working and couldnt stay for the weekend

Im thinking of going just for saturday. Just had a call from mates already down there (arrived at 7am this morning) and they said midday saturday to midnight is the best time to come coz thats when it all happens (i've never been so accepting any pointers at this stage).

How many people do we have leaving Saturday morning ? The people who are going on friday night are you staying over or what and until when ? Do they check ur wrist straps if u just buy say a saturday ticket, stay over in the camp then exit the park and re-enter on sunday ?

Is anyone going down saturday morning (early) and leaving saturday night (late) and from the Western Sydney Area ? as im not sure about parking and a lift would be the ultimate ! (I've been in a skyline passenger seat for all of 5km and i wanna know how they feel from that side of the car)

Any more info would be helpful.

Anyone that is going down -early- satuday morning and wants a driving partner etc pls pm me.

Yeah i am leaving on early saturday mourning... I am having second thoughts as to where i ca park my car down there without a high risk of it either getting smashed or stolen. If the car is left outside the park is there a good chance of somethong happening to it?

thats also my main concern as to whether i come back sat nite (late) or whether i stay over.

I talked to my mate on the phone tonight whom is already down there and he says free parking should be fine as most of the cars are hotted up or imports/v8s etc.

croat,

the car parks directly out the front of EPIC fill very quickly (and get very dusty as george said :uh-huh: ). If they're full they will usually direct you up the road a bit further to northern carparks...which are in massive grassed paddocks and are a lot more organised than the closer ones.

There are heaps of parking nazis directing cars into rows so don't worry about it getting smashed into, or people doing donuts or whatever, it's pretty organised. As for theft...cars HAVE been stolen before...but i don't think it's a huge risk. Especially during the day.

There are usually heaps of nice cars in the carparks, plenty of imports too! so don't worry about the bogans :D

Im now thinking of going down Friday arvo/nite so i can camp with my mates down there. (It works out cheaper overall that way)

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
