lol I think my whole "off to NS" remark for newbies that jump on this forum with no clue or blatantly stupid ideas might be at the root of this issue (based on the fact that NS seems to have a lot more tolerance for em than we do).

not strocking my own cock, but I think once I said it a couple of times some of the postwhores sorta thought it was cool to do so as well.

Meh, I'm active on NS and I go to the meets and know most of the melb regs.... they're quite nice people once you get to know em :)

Heres how I look at it i have been to 1 sau skid pan day (enjoyed it although I had no idea what I was doing) & i have been running vicdrift for a year & been on NS for ages.

SAU - more professional outlook when it comes to cars and events but in my opinion takes a little bit of the fun away ie on the first day I didnt know many people and a few people just seemed to have a problem with the whole drift thing.

NS - every dedicated people behind the curtains but the people that draw the attention to NS are the wankers. Street drifting is BS. but hey it doesnt matter if people are driving imports or commonwhores. they are still going to do stupid shit.

thats the main difference as i see it. SAU really has the outlook of a professional motorsport club & thats what makes it good NS is for the younger age group that are more interested in giving it the boot and getting pulled over. This doesnt mean that anyone is better than the other.

finally on another note.

If you are interested in drifting go to www.vicdrift.com we are running heaps of events next year at winton & hopefully some basic days ( ;-) )

we also have an event on this weekend sat is vdc prac & then a private drift day on monday

    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32  
    • Nice. I'm looking forward to the updates!
    • Ayooo, been a while mates. I have a s2 r33 gtst and air stopped coming out of all the top vents.   My car has always made an actuator gear noise when turning the car on but that's a different issue I think? Did searches and am at process of thinking it's an actuator or some type of motor? I see a few different actuators and don't know which one. Would be nice to know if it was the one that's under the steering wheel so the dash doesn't need to come out.
    • Hi, just checking. Did you get this stuff made by Vspec Performance and at what price roughly? Looking into (sometime later) also getting such a intake kit, and Trust as well as HKS don't make a full set like this anymore.
