Well, a new season is finally here. My first race this year is at the Wakefield 500 on 15 March.

This is a 6 hour endurance race, myself, Mark Hawkins (HAW001) and another Daewoo racer, Tom Browell (winner of last year's GP celebrity race) will be running as a team. Approx 16 Daewoos and 30 MG-Fs will be racing.

I can't organise tickets to this one, but I think entry may be free for the day anyway.

More info here: http://www.moproaustralia.com.au/special%2...ents/frmain.htm

We are also looking for the following, and would love to hear from anyone who can help out:

* In car camera for rent

* Helmet radio system x3 for rent

* Pit crew volunteers - mostly for tyre changing and timing/comms

* FWD race car available for rent on Sat 8/3.

* Pit girls in cat suits with colourful umbrellas.

Duncan, I'm happy to volunteer for :

* Pit girls in cat suits with colourful umbrellas.

What ever should I wear ???

I could double for a pit crew tyre changer too .....

As for FWD car - just use your Skyline in reverse - still would beat them all !!!

:P

Hi All,

Sorry its been so long since an update.

Everythings still on track for next Sat, we're doing the final planning on Tue night and heading down to wakefield on Thursday afternoon for practice on Friday.

We're still after assistance with tyres, comms and lap counting, so if the offer is still there (brendanf, Silver-Arrowz, fatz, ndr), we'll gladly accept your offer.....no catsuits thought thanks!

Please post if you're still available, we'd be looking for you to be at Wakefield by 9am on Sat, the race will finish about 5pm. We have 2 spots left for accomodation either night, so let us know if you're interested in that too.

Oh, and I did end up using the skyline in reverse yesterday...biggest spin ever! Luckily we also had a suzuki to spin into the kitty litter as well....

Oh, and anyone got a small generator?

Hi Guys,

Quick update- we qualified for the Top 10 shoot out and will start the race 5th on the grid (even with an engine problem).

Hope to see some of you bright and early tomorrow.

Should be lots of fun.

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now.

      I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body

      Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".

      Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
