question guys. i want to go to calder on the novem 6th drags to watch, will it be risky driving up in my skyline, will cops dik me?

probaly the same 'risk' as driving any other time but you bought it to drive it so worry about it when they pull ya up? :)

Well, do i have to fill out any form and reserve a place or can i just rock up there and pay and Drag!!

Simon, u could come with me but im from the NE..

U gotta be there about 5pm. Gotta get your car check and all that. Give me a buzz.

nah man you wont be too late. if you are running your car though u might. its gonna be packed as it is the first time since like feb calders been open for fri night drags. you will be lucky to get 2 runs i reckon.

I went, it was packed. 300 cars racing. We had to line up in the emergency lane of the freeway for about 20 mins. I only got one run in, a few mates got 2-3 runs. I ran a 14.4@103.

There was a few skylines there, white 32gtr with FULFLT plates, white 33 with WYTJET plates (i got your run on video if you want a copy). Few others.

muscle cars dominated the scene

but im a bit disappointed about the jap cars

i saw a maroon skyline 33 with no front bar, i was expecting a a good run...it was accelerating but didnt go anywhere at all???

must be the turbo curse

$65 bucks and one run? sounds worth it.........

did you get there early? i remember if you got there at 530 or something youd 'get 7-8 runs in before the line got huge and you'd be waiting 30-45mins for your last few..

The line was out on the highway from about 4.30pm onwards. we got there early as and still had to wait ages to get a run in. my mate got a total of 3 runs for the whole night. jessie can you send me the video of [wytjet] that was my mate. which run did u get though? his first or second one?

    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
    • Evening all. Got this odd issue with my R34 GTT. If I let the car idle for around 15 seconds or more (even when cold) and I jab the throttle a bit, a decently sized plume of blue/grey smoke comes out the exhaust. Doesn't smoke when idling alone, just when giving it some gas after idling. No smoke on cold start or from what I know, normal driving. Not 100% sure about smoke on decel but I don't think there's any. Any pointers on what I should start doing to troubleshoot it? Or if anyone has experienced the same I'd love to get some insight. Cheers.
