So I take it that this is no longer really a Skyline Vs Supra thing? I'm just wondering if Skylines and Supras will be out numbered by other kinds of cars? Perhaps we should change the offical name of the event to something a little more fitting? I'm just thinking about the magazine writer/photographer. It wouild be a bit strange to have the title "Skyline vs Supra Dyno Day ACT" (or similar) only to have the article read that there were only 6 Skylines and 2 Supras in a field of 30 cars! I think it would just say to all the readers that there is no import/jap scene in Canberra or that the 2 respective groups are lazy and aren't interested in club events.

Thoughts? Am I thinking about this too much?

Maybe something like "Nissan vs Toyota" or "ACT Import Dyno Day" or "Canberra JDM Dyno Shootout"? I dunno. I just don't want it to reflect poorly on either the 2 main car clubs involved or the organisers.

Anyway, can't wait for Sunday!

Sorry, I didn't realise it wasn't changed on here, but yes, it is more of a Toyota v Nissan type deal now due to the lack of numbers.

Categories for prizes are the same as last year but this time participants will vote for the car for that prize and you cannot vote for the same car twice. This way everyone has a shot of winning something.

Bring a chair as we don't have access to chairs like last year.

I'm not too fussed as to how/what this event reflects on me as this is the last time I'm organising something like this. If you don't enjoy yourself then feel free to blame it on me...

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
