lets hope ANDRA has the same positive attitude as that.

if they dont, we will be racing with the v8s

Or racing in a Ray Box premoted series...unless ANDRA is prepared to properly premote the sport and get some $$ and sponsors behind it i think its already dead....The Captain has abandoned ship before it went down....Jason was smarter than i gave him credit for.

might i just ask as well - why be so scared of racing with the v8s.

ive been out and raced with the v8s myself and watched the likes of jacobson racing the v8s in qld too.

i love it.

mick

the only thing im scared of is getting eaten by sharks.

i ran the last test and tune with all the v8 boys it was fun waving at them as i flew past.

a lot of them are good guys, but it kind of wears thin trying to explain to a yobbo that a 3460 pound car can run tens on street tyres and be street driven. not to mention there rules have been set out for v8 based cars, the rule book doesnt understand our technology.

i like racing similar cars with people of similar minds.

sport compact is huge int he states and thats the way i want to see it over here.

i would also suggest ray box wont be running a national series that he loses money from. i think people who think that will happen are living in a fairy land.

Well....wasn't almost 3/4 of this years series ran by SCP??....and wasn't only one of those rounds a failure because of almost no promotion and meddling by track management and RTA??....Jamboree and Mini Jam were a huge success..............ahh i better go now my fairy bread is getting cold.

fairy bread, well i just finished my pink donut and it was scrumsish. im not one to talk in this manner, but i know some one that knows some one who knows ray very well, and i believe he is happy to just run the jamboree as he did before.

sydney is a freak, what works in QLD doesnt work in sydney, no one has been able to get the sydney event right from and overall prospective for the racing, the girlies, etc etc.

i am also lead to believe that if the sport compact side of andra dies that ray will not be running the current classes and rules, it will go back to the ways of old.

MR blonde, whats happening mate (cant remember your real name now), i should clarify my "its huge in the states" to from a tv and spnosorship and size of fields point of view its huge, from a how many sepctators do they get at an event, its stuff all probably less than our meetings. and i make this statements from first hand information.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
