Me too and I actually did win them!

Was a great event. Good times...

I didn't see anyone else from sau vic though?

Nice work winning the rims mate! They looked sweet, were they the RS ones? I priced up a set for my GT-R.

You're car looked/sounded good out there, came past the garage a couple of times but you (or anyone really) weren't around.

Advan RS's. Apparently worth $3000. They were evo offset so I'm going to get some here in melbourne. 9in with a desent offset.

Yeah sorry ben we were probably drooling over other cars... Car went great so didn't need to do much in the pits.

Yeah Russ you bugger! Winning those rims!

Couldnt believe it when they called your name!

The High Octane and Envy Imports girls made the day a little more exciting too :wub:

Did anyone else make a mess in their pants when seeing the new High Octane 34?

I saw you in Wodonga! Well, at least I think it was you! Looked like someone on their way home from Superlap!!!

Haha yeah Liz that was us. Chowing down on some noodles and subway on the way back. I remember seeing you drive past. Are you from Wodonga? We stopped and changes tow car at a mates place there.

am I from Wodonga? God no lol

from syds but i live in melbs but i had to take my car to NSW to get a pink slip... I was trying to get back on the freeway but got stuck in wodonga somehow!

there were so many damn cars on that freeway from cars being towed from the F1 weekend.

Oh. yeah our return trip was really crap but it was more to do with roadworks on the nsw leg.

Why don't you get vic reg. It's cheaper isn't it and you don't need to get a roadworthy every year.

I don't plan to be here for long and transferring rego for a year just seemed more painful than it was worth! Plus, because I have NSW plates, I won't have too much trouble with defects/EPA notices (not that i ever have had any trouble with them before). It has it's perks!

Ps. How'd you find Oran Park? It's my favourite track! love the dog leg round the back. I'm was doing 1.31 in my skyline.. and hadn't done it in my 180 yet.. .I got a fair bit of work to do! lol. I checked natsoft, there was someone lapping around at 1.12!!!!

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
