will be heading down this year. interested to know about accomodation Noel and anyone else with info.

also would love to be able to get on the track before the event to get my head around it. any opportunities on the week of superlap?

Yeah, we're staying at the Chiefly again.

Price is on par, is the closest, and is quite new and clean.

Rooms are typically small though, but it doesn't matter too much if you can hold your own in a viscous knife fight when it comes to bed allocation when the door is first flung open.

I typically like to avoid the knife fight, and just wee on a bed from a distance (or have a bladder bomb neatly concealed that can be thrown at the bed from a distance). It's usually mine for the weekend then.

Another bonus is, when the wind blows the right way, you can smell the dump.

I have some experience in dodgy Miami hotels run by hispanics with bullet holes in the walls and requests for cash payments so the Chiefly sounds like a palace.

The bar sounds convenient, I might try pretending to get plastered before the event so I have the necesary excuses for slow times.

I share info no probs. Garrett GTRS 320hp each, with new stainless Tial V band quick release turbine housing and new Turbo Smart Compact external gates. New VQ30 motor 105kg lighter and should make an efficient max 400rkw with stock motor, dry sump with strong valve springs. So we won't be pushing it too hard, but then we won't need to as much.

See below for more.

yeah it's neat and clean but nothing flash, but you are in the western subburbds of sydney after all so given it's surroundings it might be mistaken as the taj mahal. bar is good, but not exactly cheap (are any hotel bars?). bottle shop nearby though...

Thanks !

That would have to be 320 atw each wouldnt it !

Looking forward to abusing the supra and EVO drivers !

you can also go for a short walk and see some "lady's" of the night..... although you might be scared/sick for life and things might drop off afterwards.

What we found last year was ideal for our situ. It was conference style accomodation with motel rooms surrounding common entertainment

, meeting, and BBQ areas. It was great for socialising, drinking, bullshitting etc.

Will definitely be there again this year.

Drinking and bullshitting around a bbq sounds like the go. I'll be at the chifley with a bunch of guys too. :cheers:

lol. I do not recommend sampling the local "culture" unless you actually WANT to have your dick fall off or conversely lose your "other" virginity (marlin is the exception he lost his a looooong time ago). keep off the great western highway after dark! and if you're driving a long it and see someone on the side of the road for gods sake don't slow down, they can pounce on slow moving cars.

Baron's right..... take a Tenga Egg of your choice, it's in keeping with the japanese theme too. make the right choice and there'll be no need to go outside your room after dark........ it's dangerous out there!

    • I got the four AN10 fitting welded up to the cam covers and started up making the head to sump breather/drain lines. The front passenger side cover I used a 45 up top and a 90 at the bottom into the stock VCT head drain spot (3/4" BPST to AN10 adapter) thats unused on the RB25DET NEO with some speedflow flame shield to protect it from the manifolds heat.   back passenger side was a 90 up top with some flame shield and 45 at the sump end. The rear drivers is 45 at both ends   the front drivers fitting is capped off for now but ready to go if i want to try moving the breathers around. I was told by the fabricator to leave all the welds raw for now to make sure there are no pin hole leaks. A lot of cleaning up, re bundling looms and degreasing to go as well as final assembly on the cam cover baffles. The first real test will be 28th March at a Circuit event. added complexity and more spots for leaks but overall looks relatively neat imo
    • Yeah i think the dash needs to come out. To get the loom or maybe just climate control and radio cluster. My mirrors are done i think the motors don’t work so well after flood haha i need the ac fan, you said you wanted to keep it for your 31 and interior loom not including boot. The wiper motor. I’m not sure how good the window surrounds are on the exterior on the pintara.  I will message you to get your bank details shortly 
    • Just another barrier put up to stop cars being modified. When we're all driving Chinese sewing machines, you won't want to modify it anyway, and you'll likely already have slashed your wrists and be locked up in a padded room for your own protection.
    • Yes, but no. I wouldn't want an IC7, because I think they are ugly, cramped and most of the displays I've seen are garish (and granted the last bit can probably be avoided). I wouldn't want to pay for the UC10. Probably wouldn't want to pay for the IC7, for that matter. And, it's an R32. I have cable drive speedo. Although, thinking about it, that's not a big obstacle, because at least I can throw the electronic sender back into the R33 box and then find a way to emulate the original (R32 or R33) speedo head's conversion of the saw-tooth AC speed signal into the square wave that the ECU wants, without the 1990s approach of hiding a gutted speedo head behind the dash. (another Arduino project, no doubt). I like the technical aspects of the big digital dashes, but I aesthetically and just general originality and feel-wise, like the original dash enough. More? Yes, more. If I had a UC10 I'd want to make the dash look as close to the original one as possible most of the time, and only flash up "DANGER TO MANIFOLD" when it needed to. But the other aspect of the 3-DIN slot digi gauge that I'm contemplating is that I'm a tinkerer and can barely resist a project, even if I don't need to add another to the list of unfinished ones. And I think there's enough precedent of others out there that have proven which equipment works (ie, is not washed out, or slow, or prone to failure, or all the other problems that can afflict such a project). I'm not quite enough of a micro-controller tech head that I know the best way to approach all of these decisions, and so striking out on my own to achieve it years ago would have led to unhappiness. But now, it seems like a project that I can actually achieve on the first or second go, with only a few sleepless nights. And that's why I'm actively thinking about it now. I would much rather have a thing in my car that I made from more-or-less scratch that does what I want, rather than something that someone else made that does some of what I want, not other stuff I want, and/or annoys me in some fashion. If I'm going to be annoyed, I need it to be my fault, so I know who to blame, and who needs to fix it. As an example of that - I have surveillance cameras at home. No, I did not go buy a kit with a DVR and 4 or 8 or 16 off-the-shelf cameras in a kit. No, I did not want to use any sort of could service to record or access the feeds and recordings from outside the house. No, I bought my chosen cameras directly (from China, lol) and built the DVR myself using a couple of different (ie, this was attempt 1 and attempt 2 to get a system I liked) software packages, running on Linux, with the server being a virtual machine running Proxmox. I found a way to offload the image recognition part of the system to a dedicated AI processing board (a Coral TPU, for anyone who cares) with the hardware passed through to the server on the VM, motion detection offloaded to the GPU, all storage is local in the home network, accessible from outside via my own self-hosted VPN). All done so that I could seal off the Chinese cameras in their own network where they can't access the internet and dial home to the CCP and backdoor my network. All things that you can't have if you do what is commercially available. And even with all the f**king around it has still cost a fraction of what it would cost to buy commercially.
    • ..could be worse... but out here, renting private affords some luxuries ...we've even been told the Sept dateline isn't critical, and I'd rather move stuff in the cool of winter, than slogging it out in the heat. Recall we were talking about the million dollar view this place has?...that's what he got for it... (won't be so nice when the quarry happens at the back in the future...lol..)... ...cool, I'll stick the wiper motor in a wee box...umm.... the pinny is GLX trim ~ I think that's about as close as it gets to Silo spec when it comes to the S2 pinny...ie; electric mirrors etc etc...dunno about the trip computer/wiring...I do electronics repair, I'd be willing to take a look at it for you. As you saw, all the dash is there in that car..and thinking about it, it'd be easier to pull the whole center section out, rather than just the ashtray and rails, but your call...
