Far out, I was there between 11 and 12 and cruised past the skyline area 3 times - didn't see anyone I know! Maybe you were hiding from the heat :teehee: I was kinda hoping to see some RC cars again. GF was disappointed we couldn't find any hearses, they were on the map. I don't think it was as big as last year when it was held near old Parliament house. The demonstration of spray painting by kickass kustom was impressive though

Great day and great to put faces to names....

Big thanks to CeJay for organising this.

Thanks Bullet32 for bringing the tent - I think we would have all died if you didnt!!!! :rofl:

Great social day out...

Oh - and thanks me for bringing the ONLY R34 :rofl::O

bah, missed it two years in a row now, i wasnt planning on having a big night so i could make it to Marques but ended up getting to bed at the time i was planning on waking up to finish cleaning the car... so didnt really work out. How many cars in the end?

the two dr30 skylines went down the back bit out of the way but we were there nice to see a good group of guys and gals there and it turned out to be bloody marvelous.

Nice pics... looked like a really good day! :worship:

I love that 2-door 31, very sexah!

You can buy this one if you want http://www.j-spec.com.au/list/index.php?ID=11592

It was a fantastic day and the roll-up from here was something to be proud of.

Love the photos guys. Nice work. Excellent day yesterday, thanks everyone. Have to say my favourite part was the cruise over to the park. Sitting at the lights sorrounded by 14 hot Skylines, now that's cool. Can't wait to see the footage Reece took. :PBJ:

What a great day!

It was really good to see so many cars in one place and that SAUCT (skylines australian capital territory) is getting bigger and better.

A big thanks goes out everyone who helped especially Chris for organising and Mick for the sun-burn-saving tent and free stuff.

Great photos as well, maybe we should colate them all together like we did for the night shoot?

Really looking forward to the next couple of events.

PS I didn't realise how famous my car is, there are more shots of it up here than i have on my own computer, hahaha!

Ok, pics of us

Great pics Mark, they're lovely and clear, well done!

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
