Hi everybody !

I'm stephane, a french student at macquarie Uni .... I registered on this site because i like Japanese cars, especially skylines (unfortunately we don't have this one in France!)

I have some questions for you :

1/ I saw at macquarie uni a few skylines, and i'd like to know if the drivers are registered here !?

2/ I think you have some kind of meetings for sport cars, and i'd like to know where it is, and when ... (In france for exemple it's every friday night, at a specific place, with a few runs....)

3/ Do you have around Sydney some circuits ? I just want to have a look, i don't have any car here ...

4/ If somebody is living around Marsfield, and accept to have a drink and talk about skylines, it would be a pleasure !

It's the bad point when you're international student, no car any more, no friends to speak about swap and runs, ... so if you can help me ... Thankssssssss Steph

This weekend has 2 good events to go watch;

Eastern Creek Open day on Saturday, MDTC day on Sunday.

Eastern Creek is a Sydney based track, lots of good spots to watch from, also EC is quite easy to get to.

MDTC is a much smaller place, the track is 1km long. This one is about 90mins south of Sydney by car, the speeds arent as high as EC.

There should be Skylines at both places :ermm:

Thursday nights there are a few people who meet up north of Sydney and go up the central coast. We dont have runs though, we leave that to the track :D

We have a members only track day in May, that shall be fun!

I notice you dont have a car...my R33 is for sale!! :ermm:

Hey Steph

I live in Marsfield, and drive past the uni accommodation a couple of times a day. Chances are I'm one of the skylines you've seen (White R33 GTS-T)..

As Chris said - the runs are left for the track.. Wednesday nights at Eastern Creek they have drags for street cars. As for illegal street drags, if they still happen in Sydney you probably wont find out about them on the internet. Police are pretty tough when it comes to street racing so it's far far underground now.

Thanks for all your answers !!

For Eastern creek tomorrow, i already have plans :cheers: but i had a look on their website, for next events !!

MDTC is unfortunately too far for me .... :)

@evil_weevil : i like your car, but i already spent my money for studying here lol ! Good luck for your sale !

@primordial : i saw some white R33, maybe it was you ! I actually live in front of the woolworth (balaclava rd)...

do you take part in wednesday nights at eastern creek ?

Well weekend after this one (April 10th - 13th) is a drift day at Oran Park, north circuit. Skylines aren't seen much at these days, but majority of cars are Japanese (RSP13, S14, AE86, KE70, the odd A31 ect ect)

Thinking about attending it to see what my Stagea wheels can do. Hopefully in 3rd gear I can burn tyres and not clutch :cheers:

do you take part in wednesday nights at eastern creek ?

nah dont do the drags on wednesdays, I prefer track racing personally.. my car is not really set up for drag anyway.. suspension is too hard! :cheers:

at that woolworths every now and then so it could have been me.. there are plenty of white R33's around though :)

i use to frequent mac uni and balaclava road that area. And use to wait at the bus stop opposite the car park!

i'll be there in a hour or so to wait for my gf you can come down and say hi if you want

oh ps it's a white r33

i got to mac uni - you would have seen my white R34 in the car park a few times - would be happy to chat if you like

:D R34 Liner! i think ive seen you at Maq Uni... i go there to!

    • Had a chat to Tony Mamo - he advised that looking at the graph's shape (regardless of number translation) it shouldn't be levelling off like that up top. He said it looks like the car is running a restrictor plate or something of that nature. Luckily the last dyno pull on E85 was saved to the PC - So I did a quick trace of Barometric KPA vs Intake manifold pressure, and lo and behold I see a copy of the 'waves' I was seeing on the dyno: I'm not entirely sure how to go about addressing this. It may be worth sacrificing IAT to run a more direct intake for the motor. Though packaging this could be flat out impossible given the constraints of the car. I should have removed the intake pipe to see if this made a difference but looking at this graph I now have something to potentially test in the future and think about. This one is from an old track day log in the OLD setup going through gears on track.
    • Oh, I forgot too, all the multimedia stuff captured and sold through things like people playing Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go specifically, can actually be traced all the way back to a CIA investment company too. So yep, they're watching everything. Not to mention the new stuff where they've worked out how to use WiFi signals to be able to map occupants inside of a building. That one would be something that I see being more used in public/government buildings, as you need to understand the signals when the room has no one in it first. It's not as easy as Hollywood would like you to think it is.
    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
