theres so little friction that theres not a lot of wear on the tyres (relavitvely) but if you can put some cheapies on the back, do it.

We have raced 1 on 1 round the skidpan before, each person started half a track away from the other, and it was first back to the starting point after 3 laps, but it turned into a grip elimination race which was poo. Dont know if we will do it again. We do time trials for sure :P

does not sound like the video venue to me.

We are going to video as much as we can....

pete (aka revlimiterboy) will be back down to dorifto the track one handed again....

and I am in training so definatly count two cars from rockhampton.... Jays is a bit of an issue... have three cylinders and all.... don't know if the water will get into the hole in his piston....

anyway.... we are definatly in... no questions asked.... and we'll have a support crew big enough to rebuild a motor if needed.... should be fun... Is it worth going to broadwater for a cruise after the meeting.... I reckon it would be definatly worth a look but I hear the cops are gnarly these days.... not that we want to play up or anything....

and yeah hopefully there will be heaps of good video action....

looks like MRE has got the dorifto down to an art....

incase you can't tell I just can't wait to go playing legal dorifto for safe long amounts of time.... AWSOME>>>

hey slip...

are we still waiting on a date....

can you try to make sure it doesn't clash with the SR20 day...

actually... you should try to make it so that one day it's your wet skid day and the next it's the SR20 day....

just there is a huge crew coming from rocky and we are planning on coming down twice... but if it was at all possible that it could be just one weekend... it would be awsome... cause everyone would come from up here....

but yeah i understand it's all due to availability and maybe that means that some guys don't want to do both events so close together....

although from what I can make out MRE won't be scared...

just pete wants to go to the dry day....

a whole heap of us want to go to the wet day and it would be a shame that most of us can't make both....

just see what you can do slip... thanks a heap....

I am told it is at the end of march at willowbank raceway....

but please don't ditch your event because of it.... I really want to go to the wet day for the fun.... I don't like the idea of breaking my car in brissy and having to find a way home....

where as pete is totally hooked on the idea of destroying his new toy at the SR20 day..... go figure??!!

anyway.... I found out about it because it is on the events callander of the raceway.... I think MRE should be able to hook you up with some dates...

please try to organise them so they are the same weekend and there will definatly be some very excited rockhampton import boys cruising in brissy.... we would love to organise a saturday night cruise with you boys as well.... if we are going to be down there we better make it a huge weekend eh??? so if we can organise it all it would be tops.

I'd love to come and have a go but the almighty $$$ has a hold of my pocketbook (figuratively speaking) :) .... I'll probably come and spectate instead. I've been browsing the forum for a while now and have only met Slip so far.

Look forward to meeting everyone...

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
