Hey all,

Some bad news this week on the Texi's for this year. This is out of our hands so please understand we couldnt do anything to help it.

Feb Texi is cancelled due to a mix up of bookings by the venue. Here's a condensed version of what happened; I made our bookings last year for 4 rounds of Texi this year. The venue took those bookings in advance but were going to call if there was a problem. The person who does the bookings then has had some kind of miscommunication within their organisation and we only actually got 2 of the 4 bookings I wanted and 2 of the dates I wanted went to other large companies who use the venue aswel as us who would have a MUCH longer relationship with the venue than we have. This wasnt communicated to me until this week, ive been away and the booking person (who is a deadset legend, honestly) is now on 7 months of long service leave.

Ive managed to get us 1 extra booking, taking the total Texi's for 2011 to 3.

So, firstly, to all the entrants (i believe the list hasnt been updated), you can be entered in the next Texi straightaway or have a refund.

Secondly, to anyone sitting on the sidelines - get off your ass and get involved in these days, no one can whinge about not enough events when we put them on and you dont enter. Pretty damn simple. I promise they're a fun day out

Texi dates for 2011 have been updated in the 2011 thread which is found HERE (CLICK HERE)and are also below;

June 12

September 3rd

November 13th

The $30 entry deal is still valid of course.

Remember, the exec team work hours and hours behind the scenes to make the club happen, sometimes things happen outside our control so please understand we have done our best here.

Cheers

-Steve

Will have to compensate by entering moar track days!

I still don't understand why people own what are by definition sports cars, and not attend events in them. :dry:

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
