btw - i hit the drags tons.

You wont need any licenses etc.

Just make sure you have helmet and long sleeved clothes and long sleeved pants.

The $36 Entry fee or whatever includes 1 pit crew as well, so thats 1 spectator. So sort that out so someone is in with each person and it all gets cheap.

These days you can easily expect 10 runs if you want it....

You clutch won't be ready for pick up until tuesday arvo so I can get it done on Wednesday for you.

As long as you give it 50km or so of easy driving to bed it in...you won't have a drama. Like I said...it's like a super sports organic so you won't have any problems with it. If you drop it in first thing on Wednesday I should have it ready to go for you before 11.

I also need a helmet but seeing as though I have such a doofus head, I am going to borrow one of a mate.

Looks like next wednesday might be the go for everyone at this point so I guess we'll make it then. Tomorrow is probably too little notice for everyone and I don't wanna head out unless I have someone there I know that might be able to drive me home when the g/box explodes lol.

Was there the week before last. Entry fee for racers: $36 per car( driver+1 spectator), Driver must wear long sleeves and long pants, plus a helmet. Actually you can share 1 between 2 cars, I did that last time since I dont have one. Just tell the lady you will share the helmet with ur friend.

should be about the same price for 2 spectators.... So I reckon go there and race better than just watch. Wednesday would be a better choice, since Fri would be more cars there. Last time, I was able to get at least 8 runs, but gave up after the sixth, since my car's so slow........ Will talk to you soon, Dan.

I might be popping out there for this, give the sedan its first run down the strip. Most likely on the Friday, might be the end of the clutch though. . . . . oh well ;)

I will aim for a low 14, should be able to get the stocko down there somewhere.

Thought it might be Dave. When I got mine it had the same thing and apparantley its a common thing for RB25s. They run sooo much better when its all fixed up. . . . which is to be expected I suppose.

Mine, the crack went right around and when I tapped it on the ground it broke in half!

      Depends how low and tyre size. Should fit with natural camber, skinny tyres and rolled guards.

      They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.

      Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
