antrx.com national meet in wagga june 7-10 (queens b'day)


Recommended Posts

i'd like to put forward this formal invitation to the members of skylines australia to attend the antrx.com (almost) national cruise which will be held in wagga on the queens birthday holiday (june 7-10) which is in 11 weeks.

we already have stacks of members from the r31 skyline club, the exa club & antrx promising to be in attendance. so its looking to be HUGE! (everybody say yeah!)

for more info, check the following threads & boards...

r31 skyline club national cruise thread

we chose wagga cause it is central to adelaide, sydney & melbourne. it takes 1 tank of fuel to get there for people from these cities & 2 tanks from brisbane. either way, its a drive of 6 hours from sydney & melbourne, 7 or 8 hours from adelaide, and 13 hours from brisbane.

there are plenty of awesome roads in the area, and there is even a guy who is keen to have everyone camp on his property. if you're not keen on that, there are 2 camping grounds & over 2500 beds (in motels, not in peoples houses :P) to choose from. there is also many palces to eat & shopping centres to buy food from. the guy who will let us camp on his property is also going to talk to the local council to see if we can have a show & shine day at the show grounds for all the people attending.

here is a map of where wagga is...

it has been estimated to cost each person from sydney & melbourne around $250 for fuel, accomodation & food for the weekend and for people from adelaide, it is estimated to cost them around $280 each.

and the best thing is that it has almost been completely organised, so for people wanting to go from SAU, there is no organising involved. you just have to get there. which is also made easier, as there are convoys from each capital city getting involved planned to make the run to wagga.

we have been planning this for just over a month now collectively as a club & everything is looking to run quite smoothly.

how does that sound? i'm keen to hear what you guys think.. or if anyone is interested. it would be great to see a few skylines around on the day.

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
