Okay guys and girls, its Adelaide's turn. After 2 stunning efforts by Cazz (GTS145) and the committee from Classic Skylines Australia for organising 2 awesome Skyline Nationals in 06 and 08, its time for it to hit the road, and its landing here in adelaide

At this stage it will retain the standard format (until we start working thru things)

Sign in day Friday

Track Day Saturday

Show and Shine Sunday

Going to try and get Wrigley Reserve at Glenelg for the show and shine (this is to be checked on etc) and Mallala for the track day (again, pending on checking it out)

At this point we're looking at the end of july (as thats the traditional time and it tees in with the 7th Skyline Day celebrations all us 31 peeps do) but if theres ideas for a better time of the year we're all ears

Tune into this thread for updates, as we also want volunteers to be on the organising committee. Before volunteering for the committee, make sure you think about the time committment this will take too

wouldnt it be better to have the show and shine on the saturday and the track day on the sunday?

Definently the track day before the show and shine. That way you know which cars are worth checking out and which ones are just poser mobiles.

we're still working on the finer details. last year's nationals (due to a mix up by winton raceway) we had to go to the saturday instead, and i feel that worked well in some respects (especially for those travelling from interstate)

but in some respects i can see what you guys mean, track day sunday would work a treat too

yeah but if i want to take my car out on the track.........and something happens that means she will be f****d for the show and shine...........

but in the end whatever...........

Track damage/broken parts = mega respect points ;)

If it's July your chances of rain will be fairly high. You may want to look at an indoor venue...

PM me if you want some advice regarding venues, or a contact at Holdfast Council for Wigley.

I'll well and truly have the manual conversion done for the Stagea, as well as the brake upgrade. Show what the Stagea can do around the track :sick:

I know I sure as hell won't get the 1m17s I can get on my bikes, but I'd love to be in the 20s somewhere ... I know the track well :)

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
