Hi all, my name is Chris and i have been meaning to join SAU VIC for a while now and tonight i finallysent off my payment for membership and thought i had better introduce myself.

I own a 1993 S1 R33 which i bought about a year ago now and am absolutely in love with it, i am also buiding an R31 track car (primarily for drift) as that is one of my other passions, i used to spend most of my time filming and taking photo's of the various vicdrift track days and drift australia events but couldnt shake the feeling that i was missing out on all the fun, i'm really looking forward to getting out and doing some track days and other events with all the other SAU members and cant wait!!!!.

Here's a few pics of my baby for those interested.

Cheers -Chris

Hey thanx for the warm welcome guys, my r31 is a series 3 silo, gutted and locked diff, non-turbz(i wanna keep it n/a and see what she'll do), s13 coils and r32 power steering rack, should be some fun when i get the engine sorted but its been on the back burner a bit since i bought the 33, and yeah the camber arms are going into the 33 soon, then its gonna get slapped on its guts, at the moment it looks like a 4WD it sits up so high LOL!!. I bought the car from someone on these forums so yeah its probably the same one you saw for sale.

    • Meh, I've always used 140-200TW tyres on the R32 as a daily. A set of tyres every 8-15km is acceptable to me. 8k perhaps at the less acceptable end!
    • Replace with a used tank?
    • Lots of tyres were quoted above, plenty of people have shown up to cruises on many of them.  Winton sprints allows full slicks and semi's in my category (C1, race car up to 2L), and semi's dominate the class.  You've got to set a car up properly around slicks, semi's are much more forgiving and the setup can be more versatile for a multi-use car.  I've got some used slicks fitted to the wheels already for the Silvia so we'll see how I go when the time comes. 2 sets of wheels is almost always the answer for a weekender. 
    • Well yeah - I know the tyres quoted above are technically road legal, but nobody shows up to a hill run or a cruise on them, because they burn too quick and they GENERALLY exist as the "track only tyre" for an otherwise road/track hybrid car. I suppose they could fit the bill to drive *to* the track on them instead of changing tyres there on the day. I suppose it makes sense when it comes to slicks. Otherwise you'd just drive to the track and change tyres. And if you're gonna do that I don't know why nobody picks up a slick for those uses, even for regular road car track days/HPDE use non-competition but fun stuff. I just always find it a bit funny that people will say "but street car bro on street tyres" even if said street tyres would never really be driven on the street. May as well have a slick and just enjoy the full potential on the track. *pending suspension or grip related roll overs or god knows what which may/may not apply. Nankang CRS (v2) will be my choice too in some faraway era where my car exists and goes to a track again, by which time all the options may have been updated :p. Seem to be on par with the A052 everywhere when tested back to back except half the price, and wear slower. Goes to show how fast tyre tech has come, the newest product generally is the bestererest as it comes out.
    • MMM ok,  I see a bit of praise for RE003s, but CR-S sounding like a better option, seems Nankang wants those to replace the AR-1
