drifting is expensive hobby. dont try n drift if u dont want to pay any repair bills. practice low speeds to get feeling of car before u try anything stupid like 90km scando entries, save that for the track.

but then stock skyline is pretty dangerous to try to drift in. isnt the most predictable car especially with the old worn out diff.

yep, listen to tets(drifts r33's), r33's are heavy... they have alot of body roll!..

PS ey tets me ender n all da boys went out tonight for a lil session it was pretty good! hehehhe. l8erss

but u wouldnt hit the track 1st time without any drifting experience. it takes time to overcome fears and build up confidence. better to spin out on roads with no1 there, then to pullout of mid drift and rear end someone or have someone else hit u, where insurance is not covered.

People just need to grow some sack and get out there, as I've found being on a track is far less daunting once you make the big step. I've found (with circuit days anyway) that most people involved in motorsport are always willing to help and are friendly to the newbies.

shoulda called me, we ended up in the east last night was kinda failed tho, everyone getting ready for winton tomorrow.

Firstly, I'd like to point out that Vic Drift and SAU do not condone street drifting at all so please keep talk of it out of the forum.

Now you just need to hold them closer to town, winton as way too far, especially for some one like me who wants to drive there have fun and drive home, a tow truck back from winton is just not an option.

Drifting is expensive. I strongly suggest if you are worried about breaking your car, either tow it up or take the risk and drive.

I would go to the drift days except for the horror storys of cops waiting out the front to dik you, especially inconvenient 2.5hrs from home. You try to do the right thing by going to the track but it seems the jacks are trying to encourage you to do it illegally.

In the past, a minority of idiot drifters have been known to do really stupid things in moving cars on the freeway, outside of Winton and in surrounding towns. The cops dont hassle drifters as much anymore but you will see them cruise around the pits and just sit and watch cars enter and leave to make sure no one is being stupid.

If you drive sensibly and your car doesn't look like a pig, then chances are they'll leave you alone.

Winton is the only track in Victoria that holds drifting. There are no other options. Take it or leave it.

If anyone is still serious about learning to drift legally, then please email me or check out the Vic Drift forums :blink:

They used to hold drift sessions at Calder PArk, have these stopped permanently?

    • Swapped the injectors around and the misfire followed. I went ahead and ordered the Deatschwerks 550cc injectors and am currently waiting for them to be ship and arrive. In the meantime, I've had my Nistune soldered to the ECU. Tested it, and and tried it out with the software. Everything should be prepared for when the injectors arrive.  
    • Yeah they charge a little extra for mods , last year I noted no mods but I did have an exhaust fitted after that so  better to let them know cause these kinds of things can cause the policy to be void if you ever need to claim.
    • Hello, just just bought an 1999 enr34 with a stock rb25neo and I'm looking to upgrade the engine to 500whp I know some basic things but wondering if there are things I'll need to do to upgrade the stock block and all the bits and pieces to achieve this.
    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 馃槄
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 馃珷
