Yeah consistance wins DECA. This will always be the case. If your fast, but hit hats then you almost can't win against a slower, but consistant compedator.

If we would have had another say two events I might have been able to claw back the other 6 points to catch ryan. But with a single day event you need to drive clean to win.

Not that i'm complaining, i'm happy to see ryan win DECA. It would be boring if the one person always won.

I'd Also like to acknowledge Che Boocock, Tom Giordano and Russell Cunningham. You all drove well to beat some faster cars and a fair few 4WD cars.

Also Tim did very well considering Mick broke his car and he had a one DNS. To still get 9th outright is great.

cheers for the results guys,

Happy with 9th overall condiering mick broke my car, and last run i drove an understeer king for the 1st time ( r32gtr)

that was an experiance.....

Grats to ryan , RWD represent. Really happy for you mate

cheers

Congrats Ryan!!!!

It's good to see the 4wd's kicked off the pedestal.

Top effort Che!!

I'm proof that power does not achieve better results. In fact the more power i have the worse i get; In the first year of DECA i came 4th overall, since then it has been spin-outs and burnouts :bunny:

Good work ryan!

Al, I think the first DECA I did was probably the best one because I just drove properly..instead of trying to get the arse end out whenever I can! Although It might be time to try and find a good balance between the two and get some good times down. Next time.

And fun :)

Exactly!

I treat DECA as a fun/drift/thrash day.

It was my intention to do this DECA properly, i even left my new, $660, 400km old, tyres on the rear; but as soon as i went "WD" on the first run (because someone made me go first), i said fark it. Then just wanted to do what i do best!

Thanks guys.

Its cool to see out of the top 5, 4 were RWD. Two of them being Dean and Jamie's Porkas... those things were damn fast. Congrats to Jamie on the fasted back track time. would like to see what they could get around HH.

Standouts to Che and Tom for sure! Russ, considering you spun like 10 times im keen to see what you would have got if you kept it clean!

dang! 5th is a surprise :)

thanks for organising the results guys and well done to everyone that competed

Don't you mean 4th. Well done.

Dean Taylor Porsche 484

Che Boocock R33GTST 484

Thanks to the organisers and volunteers for running a great event. Its great to see so many rwds near the top of the results sheet, and I'm really surprised by my result.

Hopefully Dean and Jamie can bring the Porsches again in the future, it was good to see something a bit different out there, and they were very quick.

    • Convert to dual filament bulb   FWIW, it will look odd - I dare say a bit dumb as it looks like your flasher relay has shit the bed.
    • If the RB20 box in the car is a push clutch, then yes, you will need to deal with the pull clutch on the turbo box. You either buy a pull clutch and don't use the old one, or you do the things needed to convert the turbo box's clutch arrangement over to push. Which is a bit of a f**karound. "Making" a custom tailshaft is the easy part. But you will need to source the front clip yoke - the bit that goes into the output of the gearbox. These are not as easy to find. They are out there, but they don't grow on trees the way that they used to.
    • Indicator bulbs are way too bright to use as a "corner marker" (we call them parking lights too). Sure. Go ahead and do it. But realise that you wil need to come up with all your own wiring to do it, as no-one will have a standard howto worked out for Skylines. It's just a matter of abandoning everything that Nissan have done and starting from scratch. You'd probably be better off retrofitting tailght/brakelight globe bases into the front indicator housings and using the taillight circuit for your corner marker and the brake light as the indicator. You'd need to work out how to kill the marker circuit while the indicator is flashing, otherwise it won't flash on-off, just bright-less bright.
    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
