Great day peeps. I wish I could have driven but... oh well.

All the volunteers were great especially DIF, Georgie, Ando, Steveo, Chubb, Goldy, Doof, Ian, Rosie & Luke, other Luke, Shell, Duncan (ute lending), Sh@un, and of course all those people I inevitably forget at these times.

I just want to add that all the entrants were the best behaved entrants to an event ever. 98% great behavior. They few that were spoken to took it on the chin and modified their behavior appropriately. When the day was over people helped us pack up, collect cones and rubbish etc and when everyone left they did so without fuss/burnouts. You probably don't realise just how much this means to me but it was great. Thanks.

Also I'll add now while I think of it, I loved the 31's on the pan (and FEAR too was great out there) but I fear that the visit we had from the EPA wont be the last. I expect that in future all cars will have to be properly muffled.

What a top event for the day Im glad I didnt miss out on this one, great to see new & familiar faces was a unforgetable weekend full of giggles & stories to tell. :D

I had a awsome time testing the cars limits in a safe controlled enviroment which was well set up & exicuted with no misshaps Im pleased to say.

From president through to all executives & organisers/helpers I would like to thank you from all competitors for making it all happen & sacrifising your time to run the event. :(

Well done. :nyaanyaa:

Ps to all who was at dinner & drinks look forward to catching up again for some more fun :( , please leave the big black rubber donger at home ( no names ). But the antics that peeps & the apperratis got up to was so funny :laughing-smiley-014: .

Gday guys and girls,

The name is Craig and I was the fella running around taking some photo's out there today.

First things first, thankyou very much for having me along. It was great to meet everyone out there and participate in such a fun event.

Well I have just gotten home myself and am absolutely stuffed, so I'm not going to go too nuts with the pics as yet but here are a few teasers off camera.

Be patient though, there are plenty more to come over the next week :P

      Warning this hidden hose almost destroyed my RB25DET

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.

      4th gear sychro worn

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual

      I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.

      IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.

      Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
