Ill let everyone look at my car on saturday and decide if its worthy lol.

ill have to get the front bar resprayed and drop it back down for that tuff look not speed bump beater mode.

Pffft, the car doesn't HAVE to be perfect, just loved! This isn't an AutoSalon-style event where every little detail will be looked at, it's more of a chance to show what you've got, speak to fellow enthusiasts, chill out, exchange ideas, etc.

Can we do something about the "Best Late Classic (R30/R31)" category?

Maybe split the two up to make the "Best Early Classic (pre R30)" , then "Best Classic (R30)" & "Best Late Classic (R31)" to be fair?

Every other model has its own category. I understand that theres not many 30s or 31s around anymore, but if anything that should add to the award.

I've done some considerable work to my daily 31 since the last Show N Shine & it seems tough when an R30 can enter which has been garaged for like 20yrs (which was incredibly tidy & immaculate mind you) & fit the "Classic" title like no tomorrow.

Totally deserves the place, but that then counts the rest of us old-skool boys out.

Maybe even introduce a "Best R31 GTS-R" to match up with the Best GTR category?

But either way, count me in! Again! :)

Hey Dean - I see what you mean, but we have had lots of discussions (read "fights"!) among the committee about classes already. Bottom line is we want to avoid have too many categories so we have tried to keep to groups which will have reasonable numbers of entrants.

The vast majority of cars in the club are r32, r33 and r34 skylines so they got 2 categories each. From there were amalgamated a number of potential categories R30 + R31, V35 + v36 and all pre R30 (about 4 different models).

But in any case, for almost all of us, the SnS is about taking part, not taking home the glass trophy!

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their reliability is proven, performance can be predictable, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
