SLIDE-FX RACING TO EXPAND IN 2008

Slide-FX Pty Ltd CEO Glenn Campbell will be expanding operations in 2008 with the introduction of a fourth team car to compete in the Drift Australia series.

“With the success of the team during 2007, SFX Racing is in a position now to move forward with our expansion plans, we have been considering for a while that it would complete the team having a fourth car and our current sponsors are happy with the expansion, so everything is in place now to make it happen.” Commented an enthusiastic Glenn Campbell.

With what is already a big operation in the Drift Australia paddock SFX Racing will be seeking expressions of interest from the current driver ranks to fill the fourth drivers position in the team.

SFX Racing is seeking the services of a motivated individual with good industry contacts, and who is a team orientated player especially within the current framework of Slide-FX Pty Ltd. If you already have a vehicle and sponsors they will have to be interested/able in integrating with the SFX Racing structure. All applicants will have to prove previous success with sponsors and the relationships fostered, be happy to go above and beyond to keep the SFX Racing brand/sponsors in media focus and satisfied at all times. A complete turn-key vehicle package is on offer to the right applicant with the right budget. Previous top level DA experience is not essential.

The applicant will have to provide a proposal in writing to SFX Racing CEO Glenn Campbell no later than 22 September 2007 for immediate consideration.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a driver to have the backing of a major team and all its resources to compete in the 2008 season. SFX Racing will transport the successful applicants vehicle, spares to all events SFX Racing is involved with and provide mechanical support and development through out the year in a fantastic, cohesive team environment.

All applications will be treated as confidential and are to be sent to Glenn Campbell [email protected] or 5 Excellence Drive, Wangara, WA 6065.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
