Thanks you staff for organising this. Drivers' briefing is one of the best I've heard.

The trip back to Windsor was a hoot.

2 cars became 3

3 cars became 5

5 cars became 7

And I don't mind saying that 2 of the drivers with 110years+ between them, kept the convoy 'up to speed' eh Humbla?

We even wriggled around a smash. Was that a wedding car?

There were sooooo many gorgeous cars there too

Tai's R32 must be entered in the SnS

Che's R34 - well what can I say but for the fact that he wouldn't let me eat off it

Dave's R34 in red - what a colour?

Midnight purple R33 - one of the best colours ever made too!

All the great ppl there that made me welcome again & can now put faces to names but the personalities count even more! :yes:

Yeh Terry I think the wedding car was involved.

Well mate with 110+ yrs behind you both you sure did set the standard for most of the way home :D

6.3 Gig of vids and pics to sort through, plus the dvd footage from terrys place...

including the special event.. Aggro chases down Terry :P

Will post up later tonight, first things first.. food and shower!!

Nice to meet all of you and to put faces to names for the others I didnt get a chance to meet.. I think I still won for loudest exhaust :)

It still sucks that I fail on the uphill parts. Must get turbo.. screw P plates

Hahaha,

I saw you all in the distance on the horizon and said to Alex, We have to run home with them! I didnt think I was gonna catch you for a while there especially after you guys overtook the caravan and I ran out of room.

The drive home was awesome people, I had a ball.

Nice to meet you Dave (and after being behind you for a while on the way home yes your exhaust is LOUD) and Terry your 34 is stunning

Thanks also Nick for inviting Alex and myself to the spare seats at your table

Here is a couple of pics but they are a bit crappy.....Except of course the one of my 33, hehe

The Putty Road cruise was a lot of fun as usual - a good chance to catch up with some old friends and to make some new ones.

The trip home was one for the old brigade indeed with me also adding to the numbers to bring it into the 165+ years for the three of us. We also started out by ourselves and then became part of your growing pack.

Clinton and I had a great lunch with good conversation thanks to Terry GT-R34, Humbla, R 2 THE J and Pezhead to name a few.

Thanks again to all for a great day.

Cant wait to see the Pics, had a freakin awesome day, the 32 got a good workout!, and must remember next time to wear sunscreen...

165+ ??? :yes:

Imagine Charles, being pulled over by the policeman who then says,

"I've pulled over antique cars with racy drivers in my time; but I've never pulled over racy cars with antique drivers before!" :blush:

Great conversation at our table with yourselves, Eric, Rudy, Joe, Janelle & Jetta

And elsewhere with David aka Aggroman, Andrew, Aron, Che, Linton & Tai + at the start with Dave, NYTSKY, Jezza, David aka FloydWestwood, Matt aka MBS206

Regards, Terry

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • 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.
