Thanks to all for another tops Wang weekend. Had no idea it was even on til Snowy mentioned it a few weeks back and I was already flying in to Melbourne for some quality time with Raechel. How convenient!!

Big thanks for the generosity of the Snowdaddy lettting me drive the GTR. What an animal of a car!!!!! If I ever find this ellusive EVO I will be happy to return the favour westside. Thanks to all the helpers on the day. A really slick run event. Adz and Ash, those wang burgers were the best yet!!!!

Did you finish up blowing your voice box James... Seemed to be getting a bit crunchy towards the ends of the battles. Great job mate. I am sure there is a role for you in an upcoming 2F2F. :)

Apologies Mav for just about having you jumping the armco on the long wang.. bit of a hairy moment.. :)

Great to catch up with so many of you again and thanks for making me welcome. Sorry I missed the Wang night out, but I think I might have struggled to convince Raechel that racing cars all day and then getting on the sauce with all you bad eggs that night and then being the enivitable broken shell of a man on Sunday qualifies as quality time :D

Look forward to getting back for another one..

Blaise

the buleen bar sucked the wang and i couldnt work out why they were handing out bottle openers, i only saw today they had their logo on them.

the yahoo bar was tons better

You're kidding. I thought the yahoo bar was a hole, no a grimy cesspool, and didn't help the bouncer was a powertripping c0ck with Gareth who just needed a little more riverdance time to sober up. It all came down to Gareth looking down into his wallet for ID with the hat on while the flog kept telling him to look up at him, then griping because Gareth couldn't find his ID so he said "you're out"! Whatever lights your candles I suppose but I prefer to see and hear the people I talk to. The girls just flat refused to stay when they walked in.

Surely there are better places to drink in town.

i think paul was more pissed at the yahoo and therefore anything and everything was more enjoyable!!!

Great weekend, big thanks to Russel and friend (sincere apologies but im drawing a blank on your name), Nat, Mav, Leewah for helping run the back track.

His name is Ross and it was his first exposure to a motorsport event. The ride in snowy's GTR has ensured a future interest in the sport. He loved every minute of the day as did I. It was a pleasure to help out.

Also great to meet more of you this time and have a chat.

Highlights were the runs in Snowy and Petes cars. bugger... now he thinks my car is slow....

Ahahahahaha

PMSL Age - thats gold.

Yeah Brisby how did our cabin have a layer of water over everything the next morning???

Funniest thing was Ash waking up and saying "Where the fark are all my clothes???" - his bag was on the floor completely empty and Brisby was snuggled up on the couch wearing them all.

    • Yeah most people that have heard it said it was fine but it's always had me slightly worried. Oil pressure I can't remember off the top of my head but it has plenty, I run 10w60 You're probably right mate, best get ordering some shims! Guessing Nissan is the best place for them?
    • Just wanna preface this and point out I'm a mechanical fitter by trade but have had very little rebuild/machining experience, but I am keen to learn, hence this project. Bit of a write up here so bear with me, just want to make sure I do this right  I've got an rb30e currently pulled down. Planning on putting a 25 head on it and running it in my s14.  Not chasing huge power so I'm just going to try get away with factory bottom end for now.  Started measuring the crank the other day, realised my budget daytona micrometer set wasn't up to the task (surprise, I know). They only measure to 0.01mm but the Nissan specs are to 0.001mm. Anyway, I started measuring anyway and came away with the mains being inline with the oem spec, as well as the big ends, except for no. 5. I consistently got a measurement of a hair over 49.96mm, where all the others were pretty spot on 49.97mm. The lower spec for grade no.1 is 49.961mm. I'm getting access to some better gear my next days off to double check everything, but in the case that the big end is right on that bottom spec, is it pretty much just a case of straight to the machine shop for machining and oversized bearings? I understand I need to measure the tunnel as well to work out my oil clearance, but it's the different grade bearings in the manual that are confusing me. What is generally the process when one journal would still technically be in spec, but in a different grade?  Thanks for coming to my Ted talk
    • You need to visit Ipswich. Plenty of clapped out R32 and R33s running around here as daily drivers. And when I say clapped out, they're how you'd look at a VN, when it's the year 2010...
    • So I checked this out in the weekend.. and look at this. I remember watching the videos. Finally got to see it in person! BRB. Tissues. Got tonnes of other pics and videos too.      IMG_0171.mov IMG_0113.mov
    • For anyone who might be put off by the slightly wacky wheel offset shown on the box photo above, the production models are not like that. Here's some more pics of the actual product (as well as the interior)
