Hey guys just trying to guage the level of interest for an event that myself and my V8 driving mate have in mind.

We propose to have 12 cars and drivers on each team to compete at AHG skid pan timed event to see which car really is better.

To be an entrant you will need a car worthy of the challenge, a competition license, helmet , long sleeves etc etc.

You will be able to drive any road registered car (full race cars not permitted). It is not a drift event, it is a timed event so we would only want entrants who will be going for the fastest times.

We would like it to be a fun semi serious competition. I would imagine that cost per driver will be $80-90 and it will be an Afternoon event (12.30-4.30).

So, who would be interested? Let me know if you are interested, and you have competition license (with out a CAMS or AASA license you will not be able to enter...please keep that in mind). Post any questions you have and ill see what i can do to answr them. Keep in mind that at this moment it is in the very early stages of planning so no date is set yet...i need to know we can get the numbers before we can go much further with it. Please dont whore the thread to much.

Cheers

Brad

I'd be really keen. I wouldn't mind having a drive on the skid pan in the R34 before this day as I haven't taken it for a serious drive yet. Also it is in need of a tune, so not in the very near future. Brad, are you looking for people with more experience, or just anyone willing to give it a crack? I really want to get into this sort of competition as I've told you before, but as you know, my experience is limited atm. Still improving though :P

lol... also, hopefully I can afford to have an exhaust by then. My rims should be on, so should have plenty of grip, but its going to look a bit week with just a stock exhaust :P Need to order a dump and a cat and then have a chat to Kermit again :)

Ryan, its all in the name of fun so experience is not everything. Any one can enter. You wont get the experience if you dont get out there and try. What are you doing May 20 in the afternoon?? If you can get off work that day, PM me :P

haha, you guys talking about sabotaging my car, Im on your side! haha AHG would be more suitable to the awd vehicles (Evo's, STi's, GT-R's etc) but don't forget there are some quick v8's and drivers out there!

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
