I got a message from Tarmac at about 11:00 last night saying to check the new HPI, not telling me what about and to my surprise (Actually I called him up and asked WTF) 5 of the local boys are in it (Sorry Bullet, DriftGTS I don't think you made it)

Wish it was a couple of months earlier to get some interest for the cancelled event, but next one (even though it is in sydney) should be massive. I was even thinking of holding my own event in canberra (ACT Annual ImportKhana*) and getting the HPI guys out. I think we would have a fair few people interested in canberra, And I would have alot more variety of events (Motorkhana, Gymkhana/driftkhana, SkidPan, Go to Whoa etc.) Feed back welcome thumbsup.gif

Check it out!!!!

*=All cars welcome, just thought it was a catchy name

P.S just posted this in events by accident

repost :P

good to see it's out now though... I had a look a little while ago and it was still issue 98

I have it.... I can scan and post it, if i'm allowed on this site...

I made it in twice :D, same with Sam...

we'd prefer not... especially since HPI cover our events like this, not a great idea to be ripping off their mag on the forum :yes:

I'm interested!!!

NO!!!

:O

Slim is sorting it out, he was pretty adament on not having to ship it anywhere... I'll talk to him about it and if he still doesn't want to, I'll send some out...

Thats not really fair... The event was held on our doorstep, about seven of us took part and we are expected to drive all the way to Sydney to get a DVD of it? :P

It cant be that hard to put a bunch of them in the mail so that we can distribute them for ourselves.

C'mon Steve, play nice.

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
