the Aaron Phase 3 day sounds the same as a UAS day, no real formal instruction, but instructors on hand if needed.

yep, that's exactly what it's like. except that it's a bit less formal. ie, no grouping of cars into fast/slow etc. just get out there and drive!! this way you get a lot of track time. also they have proper, door handle to door handle races at the end of the day for people that A. think they are good or B. are going for a C3 licence.

I had Aaron spend some time with me in the GTR and it was time and money well spent.

hey guys,

First of all, big ups to Adam and Jaala, as this is pretty much their baby!!!! well done. A great success!

Congratulations also go out to all of the other helpers Merli, Mars & partner, Duncan & Kel, Dan & partner, Neil & Partner, the guys that helped with the selling of raffle tickets (sorry didnt get their names), my cousin Dejan (who got ropped into helping by myself, but enjoyed the day thoroughly), anyone else i missed and the organisational people that have put in leading upto and on the actual day.........and im sure the others that will put in as part of the closure of the event.

also what an effort by all the forum members who made it from near and far (that guy from wagga.........jesus what an effort!!). we had a huge (nearing on 100!!) and extensive range of skylines and various other models! without you guys making an effort on the day it wouldnt have been such a success.

thanks to the sponsors who stayed all day along with their demo cars!!! great to see!

i really enjoyed the day and helping out made it so much more fun.

and i hope the guys (sorry didnt catch the name) that i helped push out of the mud, and the other guy i helped push out of the ditch enjoyed their day too!!!

thanks again to everyone!

Jason, nice to meet you on Sunday... Sorry I didn't get to talk to you properly, I was extremely stressed about making sure all the cars were entered into the judging sheets... Next time for sure!

I think we should REALLY stress the importance of pre-entry next year. It would have made things run so much smoother and the judging would have been much faster too!

Anyway, please pass on a HUGE thanks to Dejan for helping me out with preparing the judging sheets, I appreciated it more than he could ever imagine :uh-huh: :D

we didn't pre-enter due to the fact we didn't know if we were going to make it.....but judging should have commenced as soon as the first car was parked and ready to be looked at (my 2 cents)

      You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?

      Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
