Hey Guys,

I am yet to finalise things, but I have heard that [cabin] have requested SAU enter as a team to Drag Combat!!

I am stinking excited about this! What I want to know is, how many people would be interested in entering Drag Combat under the SAU banner?

I'm THERE baby!

This is going to be one of the highest profile events of the year in terms of "our" type of motorsport and a big turnout would be superb.

*** To top this good news off, Damien @ [cabin] has made us an offer too hot to refuse!!! The Autosalon guys will be supporting our team entry with special, SAU member-only offers! Details to come but remember, ENTRIES MUST BE IN BEFORE CHRISTMAS to take advantage of the discounted entry ($50) and is for Skylines Australia NSW members only. ***

Stay tuned for a special offer for non-members as well!

Just to re-state what PranK has said though, NO NO_SHOWERS!! I cannot stress this enough! Cabin/Autosalon guys put on an amazing and professional show and it is ABSOLUTELY IMPERITIVE that those that say they're entering with the club ACTUALLY ENTER!

There is still some discussion pending about appropriate classes for us to enter so stay tuned for more details.

SAU in the spotlight - Skyline invasion of Drag Combat - BU5TER running low 11's... I can't think of anything better!!! ;-)

Update:

I will be confirming some specific details tomorrow with the Cabin guys regarding an SAU team entry.

We will be entering as one group under the SAU banner in both the drag and show'n'shine categories and as such, the SAU entry will be open to SKYLINES AUSTRALIA NSW club members ONLY.

Whilst not yet confirmed, it is expected that all participating SAU team entries will attract a discounted entry fee IF ENTRIES ARE RECEIVED PRE XMAS '03.

CLUB MEMBERS: Please feel free to express your intention to enter in this thread and keep all conversation or chat to pm.

Shit well if B-man is going to come then I'll have to consider entering it strongly...

I will definatly be along to support SAU though and yes... if your not comming then don't say you are... even if your thinking of coming... this is a way of getting the club some exposure and if we say yep we'll have 20 cars and only 12 show then it make us look like fools.

Pre Xmas 2003 is not far away - what's the mail boiz ?

Just a note, I have it on good authority that Damon Dupriez no longer has any ties with [CABIN], after "negotiations" broke down...

So I'm not sure what he's doing liasing club discounts for Drag Combat.

DAMON has broken the association but that's cool because, we are dealing with DAMIEN. Different people all together. Damien Gavin and John Bearman are the organisers and promoters for D.C.

All is well with the universe.

Well, I cant believe that cabin have changed their event to coincide with the 4,6&rotor Nationals in Adelaide on the SAME DAY!!!

Obviously they are not interested in GTRs doing 8 second side by side passes!

Why would Keir & I spend thousands to race in NSW when we have a similar event in Adelaide on the smae weekend?

Damon... Damien... Same thing dammit hs.gif

Only $50.00 folks. Get those entries in quick-smart. B-Man, run the Gloria too mate!

Munro, Drag Combat will have quicker cars running than yours and Keir's. It's not personal, mate but you seem to think it is. I think [email protected] might be a better place to take your concerns. I'm quite sure you'll have fun running in Adelaide. Maybe you should start a thread about it and not hijack this one.

keen on the DC but not sure if my car can cut it in the show and shine or even the drags. never actually run the quarter mile. although having said that i am keen on running on the new track when the off street drags start. but i'll come and watch for sure and have a few mates who will tag along aswell.

    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
