  1. Nice work Tharaka. I will be arriving a little later than planed, probably about 11am
  2. Hey Pete, I'm interested!! Can we talk at MAS, to discuss what tests, reports, etc are required?
  3. Congrates Jack! Forgot all about this , was at S/way Forest Hill, btw 5am and 12pm, could have easily swung past and said hi. Oh well, at least i came home and worked on my car
  4. Why would you open a thread titled "Gts Badge Interest Revived" and expect it to have a 34 badge Having said that the people involved may design a GTT badge, but not if you f@rken ask like that. If you want it that bad, get off your ass, do another thread and do it yourself.
  5. Track days are very risky, I agree with your 1% theory, but that equates to 2 cars for every 3 track days . I too agree with the "silly" part too, as I have since learnt a very valuable lesson; EASE the power on, when coming out a corner But these lessons are only learnt through experience. Most are lucky and have no damage for their mistakes, but some will pay the full price. Just letting people know the risks involved and making them think wether they are financially secure. In my opinion if the car is under finance or loan, I would highly recommend not to track the car, as these people could not afford to write it off. You only need to look at the professionals, to realise how risk this sport is. If you can afford the maintenance and repair cost, I highly recommend taking the sport up. It is a HUGE rush and great fun when everything goes right
  6. I only had one off in three track days, but that one off caused me to hit the wall . If you can't afford to be without the car for an extended period of time or can't afford to fix any potential repairs, then best keep it off the track. Also note, tyres, brakes, suspension also gets pretty expensive to replace/repair, just from track wear and tear. The accident had a expensive but good upside to it, it got me motivated to spend the $$$$'s and improve it Damage After Repair:
  7. The Tyre Factory (ttf) definately sell anz rims. The question is; Will they clear the 33 front caliper, without spacers?

    Just make sure you jot down the KM's, and make sure they see you do it . You don't want one of their apprentices "test driving" it.
  9. Depending how i pull up after the "Beer Appreciation Day" and wether i am "on call" for that weekend, i'm keen to come up for the day and enter. Any Ballarat, Skyline, locals entering?
  10. Don't know how i missed this thread, but i'm definately keen. Hopefully i am not on call that weekend.
  11. Do you have a cat? Ans: NO: Then probably make no differance YES, but std:This will be drastically restricting flow, thus will be suffocating engine and robbing you of power. I myself use a legal hi-flow cat.
  12. have you upgraded to a hi-flow cat
  13. Cancelled, due to lack of interest
  14. I currently daily drive an AU Falcon ute, soon to be changed to a bug-eyed Magna Station-wagon. These cars are absolutely great, when you don't pay for them and comes with free rego, service, petrol and insurance Company vehicles are great I also have free use of it after hours and holidays, 365 days of the year
  15. unless we get a massive rush of entrants tomorrow, this will be cancelled
  16. Congrates Juz!; perfect person for the job

    There are heaps of good performance w/shops in the Northern suburbs, just do a "search".
  18. Can everyone do their best to let me know by Wed. night, just would like a rough number of entrants before booking with Calder Park
  19. Arrival time is anytime b4 9pm, but you really have to judge for yourself wether it is worth the effort if you are coming after 7pm. Just my opinion
  20. This event is open to all.
  21. Would like to have an SAU drag night at Calder Park Rwy, on Friday night, the 27/10/06. If we enter as a club there is a $10 dicount for entrants, and we get to park with the "comp cars", and possibly get more runs. Not sure if there will be any dicounts for spectators, but will ask. To enter as a club, i need names and car model from people that are definately interested. So post up if you intend to come and have a heap of fun. NOTE: This is not an "offical" SAU VIC event, but i still class all SAU forum members as a club. Competitor list: - Alan Calleja R33 GTS-t

    Happy Bday Saff!

    Happy B'day buddy!! Bit weak thou , was up for a piss up tonight
  23. Top stuff James!! That looks awesome!! Can't wait to see it, especially when you get the rims. Colour looks VERY similar to mine, may make for a good photo shoot . Do you think the colour looks better at Dusk, with the low light, especially when the sky has that orangey/red glow?
  24. Have a set of 17's with RE55's, legal depth. fronts: 235 (8" wide rims) Rears: 255 (9" wide rims) Your welcome to borrow them if you need to. (Will clear R33 GTR Brembo's)
