Don't mean to hijack ... but there is also the SAU SA club BBQ/nomination happening at Ministry of Bass on the Sunday. For those who are concerned about missing this, and not wanting to missing the Drift Supercup event, I can see what I can do about coming out to Mallala after the Ministry of Bass meeting to handout/gather more membership forms and voting forms.

Rather than clog up this thread with responses ... PM me if you are such a person who will be at Drift Supercup, but also want to join SAU SA and vote. If there are enough numbers, I'll take the drive out to Mallala :P

Thanks Penny :cool:

why is it so dam expensive $25 bux for what :) that's one thing i hated about the drags

WSID is like $15 to get in and AIR was like $20 for non national even and nationals were like $25 no conc.

/rant

would like to come but to far ahead to tell plus i always do hand over on sundays so have to be either @ the city by 5pm or ridgehaven which means leaving event @ 4pm

steve WSID is always going to be cheaper as they have a much larger number of entrents for local events, BJ couldnt let people in at a loss, he has to cover costs. i'll deff be getting out to this, then the following weekend to the hill climb

Its a good thing entrants in the AJD got themselves a ticket for free entry and parking closer to the paddock. :)

Makes up for the fuel to drive out there :)

edit:

On that note, I may come out to the Saturday session also if anyone wants SAU SA membership forms and committee nominee forms. I'll be wearing my SAU jacket. :woot:

PM me to discuss SAU SA and meeting me out there.

if not workin will be out to watch this, this is a big step in the right direction for drift and motorsport in SA so will be out there showing support.

Was considering entering but seeing as i might only just have my car back together by then if im lucky dont wanna waste a comp trying to learn a new setup.

this is a National event, replacing Drift Australia, you will be seeing the best drivers in Australia battling side by side, $25 is peanuts for what ur getting.

btw ill be there in street class, should be a great day, make sure u tell everyone u know about it and keep National level drift in SA alive.

btw if i remember right, DA was the same $$, so i dont know what the issue is?

ah ok, yep G1 has always been cheaper. G1's are like drift practices with competition basically, DA and no doubt DSC are more like a typical national motorsport event, girls, trader stands, on track entertainment etc, theres a lot more to see and do.

me and flick should definately be at this. I gotta make sure i got the weekend off but flick already does. She should be out doing photography again so get your orders in drivers :D

go on the mallala website and read bout it

states all the times on there

otherwise in the drift section of ns there is a full topic on it

Can't access the schedule, was also not working 4 me yesterday could someone plz post time that it finishes on Sun

The '5S' Carpark

Want to park closer to the action at the Drift Supercup on Sunday 24th May?

If you arrive in a;

Silvia,Soarer,Skyline,Supra or Sprinter

we will have someone strategically placed to direct you into the 5S Carpark.......directly behind the main grandstand. When it is full it is full so you will need to cruise up to Mallala early!

Dont think im too keen on driving the 34 down there however.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
