Hey fellow Skylines. Is anyone interested in entering power cruise?

DETAILS: http://www.powercruise.net/12/index.php?page=entry_form

WHEN: Feb28 - Mar2

WHERE: Eastern Creek

PRICE: $120 entry before Jan 7 / $180 after Jan 7 / $220 after Feb 22

Dyno Comps additional $30

WHATS INCLUDED: This includes full weekend admission fee for the driver into Powercruise® and entry into the Carline Mufflers Powercruise® cruising sessions, Powerskid™ Comp, Burnout Comp, Off-Street Racing, Drifting Comp and the Show & Shine.

I bought my GTR back in August and have been spending my time going over my car making sure everything is right before I take it to the track. For me this is an entertaining event where I can flog the car a bit on the cruise sessions and off-street racing without being too hard on my car.

I'm seriously considering this and a few additional SAU folk joining in would just push me over the edge. So whattya think?

:thumbsup: GD2ILA

I think I will do it too. I've seen footage on the Ignition DVD (Ep #25 just out). Looks like a lot of fun.

From what I can guess, looks like the "Off Street Races" are simple line up and go. No stagger and doesn't like like it is timed. Basically just a king of the hill race with the all out fastest winning. Folks here will be happy to know that an 8 second R32 GTR won it in Qld.

Cruise sessions look to just be free form open track where you can drive the track (not at full speed) and have some fun shooting down the straight or around a corner before slowing down approaching the other cruisers.

Looks like has some exhibition stuff - jet drag truck in the QLD event, show -n- shine, etc.

I see it as $120 for 3 days is pretty cheap to have some fun.

anyways - hope to see you folks there. Look for my White R33 GTR.

Cheers.

    • Hey Nismo, any chance in the world you still have these seats?
    • I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.  
    • Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.  
    • And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?
