Hey guys, So it was my first time at winton drifting! It was so good! I also entered the track and it was unbelivable! it was the bestest experience ever. My car was running at 233kws and thrashing it the temp was at 81c with a alloy radiator! . For drifting i had a 2way diff , coilovers and a rear adjustable sway bar! but the bad thing was HICAS was activated... i hope it didnt make a diffrence.. I also spun out a couple of times onto the grass! . I went through 1 pair of tyres and also used not much petrol? . The morning was also cold but then in the afternoon it got pretty hot. I also saw 2 SAU members RED r33 drifting he was going off tap going nuts.. and i saw a White R33 with a Camera on top.(had a SAU sticker) . Anyways who else went?

Yeah mate, white R33 was me. I had a great day. Looking forward to the next oppertunity I can get out there. Only way to get better is just keep on getting as much track time as you can.

You need to man up Bas and give it a go! I'll drive your car up there for ya!

Good stuff geraus. Looks like a good turn out up there.

im gonna hold you to that russ, you can just swing past mine, and then we will cruise it there (with you driving mine obviously)

when is the next meet?

if its november/december, then my high mount setup and 2 way diff will be in 100%, if not then just the 2 way will be in lol.

thanks russ :banana::D:D:D:D

The december one is probably more realistic with the sil so that would be a good time I reckon.

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.

      Nismo rear spats

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?

      The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.

      According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
