As a lot of Melbourne members know, I crashed my car at the last SAU VIC DECA. If anyones curious I'll post pics, it's been undergoing a facial reconstruction at the hands of my very capable panelbeater. In the meantime I'm collecting some upgrades for her: N15 SSS 28mm front swaybar, Whiteline end-link bushes, D-bushes and steering rack mount bushes.

Good luck in your news roles

Considering your location, Status Tuning in Dandenong would be your best bet: http://www.statustuning.com/

The ratio of awesome cars in Ginza rocks, only broken up by taxis.

It means 'for the win'.

Weather shields and four doors are definitely ftw.

TMU is located across the road.

Why didn't I think of that one? Car's at the panelbeaters now. I'm not going to see any change from $2,000 (could be more) and I'm supplying loads of second hand parts I've got for free or cheap.

haha, no doubt. We had lunch at Pie In The Sky, I was at The Ivy the week before

'tis getting fixed. Just sent a bonnet to Vu today.

Loud white S15.

I was up there today too.

Heat-f*cked. They've seen 3 or 4 track days (can't remember) and 1.5 DECA's. They've been melted a couple too many times. And yes, my brakes are shit and need attention. I'm running SSS brakes front and rear, I haven't changed the master cylinder and brake booster and I've got no ABS. My car stock basically has a drum rear end and tiny calipers up front. It now has bigger calipers (still single piston) up front and discs on the rear. Normally I can deal with them being really touchy but at DECA last weekend they just kept locking up. Obviously the last straw was the sweeper on the Long Wang, locked them up and I was gone. Pads are Bendix Advance front and Nissan OEM rear, Rotors are DBA slotted front and Nissan OEM rear. I noticed today when I drove the car to the panelbeater that the fluid has boiled over. I've obviously cooked it. So on my to do list is fixing it cosmetically and mechanically (which is what is happening now), and them paying some attention to my brakes and tyres. Should be there for DECA in November, Long Wang will make me a little nervous though.

I might have semi's by then too, kinda had a few grip problems.

Oh well, can only fix it and come back for November Somehow I didn't either and I didn't complete even half the day

Godamnit, really wishing I hadn't screwed up so early in the day, I was starting to do well

Then you can prepare for further shit talking in this thread Ryan. Most off topic DECA thread ever

I'm not sure if this is a direct dig at me, but if it is, I don't appreciate it. I've had my car since '03, it's seen a lot of hard driving and some track work and I'd never put a scratch on it prior to this. I don't think I was driving beyond my limits, I wasn't even giving it my all. The car did something I wasn't expecting and I couldn't regain control once it had. Shit happens. There is plenty to hit if you go off; trees, poles and mounds of dirt don't have a habit of moving out of your way. It was a minor accident, I don't think it will effect any future events.

As Ryan said no damage to the pole. Hit it at under 20kmp/h I'd guess.

Jarrod, they're awesome. You even got heaps of my little carsy prior to stacking. I'm kinda sad looking at them. Oh well, can only make it look like that again

White 4-door R33, shadow chrome rims, what looked like a factory kit turning on Mt Dandenong Road in Croydon near Croydon Car Sales at about 5:30pm.

Thanks Bec Will assess what needs replacing this weekend, fix the bodywork in maybe a few weeks then get onto the mechanicals. Shaken, but not stirred

Long Wang's victim did make it home okay. My one hour of DECA was great
