Danh - are you really moving to Qld? Can't believe you are going so soon! :dry: Will give you a ring and let you know what times etc. I will be there every day, so I might make a daily meet time for beer and 'fashion' shows. I will check the timetable and see when a gap in racing and bikini models coincide.

Darren - no worries mate - will give you a ring to hook up.

I will prolly post up a meet time and place on here in the next day or 2 - then anyone that wants can rock up.

Well I tried to ascertain the times of the bikini fashion parades today, but to no avail. No-one seems to know what time they will be on.

So, I will make the meet times as follows.

Place: under the shade next to the fashion parade runway/stage (I think it is in the section with the Aussie Bar).

Friday 1:15pm (after Clipsal V8s Practice 2)

Saturday 1pm (after VB Challenge)

Sunday 12:15pm (after Clipsal V8 drivers parade)

Is everyone happy with this?

Come along and catch up with a bourbon and lunch.

Hi guys,

Sorry but I have to put a LSD for the front diff. The only time I can do it before track day and my departure is tomorrow :P

We will try to get an early start and if I finish it early I will try to come out to clipsal. If you guys have any tips to speed up this process then you quite welcome to post up here or pm me.

Thanks and have fun guys.

Hey Nightcrawler did you stay for the historic touring cars? as the camaro was getting very sideways around the last corner was one of the most enteraining things out on track all day

nah sorry mate - we were too buggered (and sun-soaked) to hang around after the V8s race. Was god to catch up today - my photos of the 'bikini fashion parade' came ot pretty well too :O

Is anyone else going to actually rock up tomorrow to say hi?

I am making the meet spot right at the 'Highway 500' sign in the fashion stage area - near the sail shade thing. Hope to see some there.

Hey mate was going past during the drivers parade as I thought that that was the time set, I couldn't find anyone around there not that I know what many people look like from here. was nice today in the cooler weather. I had to regretfully hand back the special pass i had :thumbsup:

Good to see the Camaro turned it on again today in the race

nah the time I set was just after the drivers parade 1:15pm. No-one rocked up .... but was ok - saw the bikini parade again and had some photos with hot chickys :thumbsup:

Yeah the Camaro was getting the rear end out awesomely!

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
