What condition are your pads in? If you have plenty of meat left on them, I'd say you'd be fine, definately flush the brake fluid though and check the pressures in your tires

ah k rears are good front is low and theres bit (large) of a lip on the rotor, friend said it wouldn't need to be changed (rotors) but i really have no idea

Id start with tyre pressures around 26psi as they will raise to over 40 when hot. Otherwise you'll be skidding like a mofo.

I'll go high like suggested and let air out if i need to.. and go get pressure checker thing.. do we need to bring the receipt with us? cos i have no clue where I've put mine haha

^^ that article is all good and well but he still needs the 'G Sensor'

Not necesarily, the computer just needs a voltage input which theoretically could be from any source - not sure what else would go wrong though...

Is all beyond my skills to be honest but would be interesting to find the answer either way.

[Madaz]

nope you still need the G sensor as it goes from 1:1 right through to 0:1 0 on his dial is like factory ecu and 10 is maximum front split

receipt on the day is not necessary, but if your name's not on our list, you won't be able to drive :lol:

you'll need to bring your driver's licence though.

My rims on the GTR are 10.5" wide all around. So 275's front and rear, who says 34GTR's dont have wide guards

just about to order some new engine mounts and some acre brake pads. hopefully they get here before tuesday.

:EDIT: and 20 minutes later, pads are ordered and paid for, just waiting on a reply from driftshop for the engine mounts. $279 for 2 urethane mounts beats the shit out of $430 for 2 oil filled genuine nissan mounts.

there may be some confusion about helmets arising from a recent email from Dean at John Bowe - the original promotion for this event was that helmets were not mandatory. i have just spoken with Dean a few minutes ago and he confirms this, but we agreed that you are welcome to use a helmet for the higher speed sessions in the afternoon.

so helmets are not mandatory required equipment, but you can use one if you have one. Dean sent out an email to this effect while i was on the phone just now.

other than that, please read the receipt / Booking Confirmation that he has emailed you and go through the checklist again.

i'll email/PM everyone details on meeting up in the morning if you want to go up to Mallala with a group. any other problems, please let me know.

Did anyone else want to enter and take my spot?
