Hey Guys.

Just putting the idea out there to anyone interested.

Test and Tune on at Heathcote Park Raceway on the 29th May (Sunday).

Im taking my 33 out for its maiden voyage on the strip with its new turbo.

There'll be a few friends coming along. (Nothing crazy out of my friends - one is even borrowing my standard V6 statesman cuz his corolla mightn't make it).

Hoping to fly the import flag above the usual V8 1600kg+ cars that usually frequent the area.

Be great to see some more Nissans make it there.

If your coming from Melb its a long way to spectate. That being said the line has never been crazy wheneva I've been there so there is the potential to fit a very high number of passes if you just want to do run after run without really thinking about what your doing.

Seems i have a few mates keen

1x R33 GTR 370rwkw

1x Blown LS1 380-400rwkw

No doubt more to come... including what is basically a V8 supercar with street rego (had around 330rwkw N/A) :D

I'll update once i know more. Could be a few EVO's and maybe a C63 AMG

I was at heathcote a couple of weeks ago and was disappointed in the lack of imports ( skyline to be more specific) that being said it was an awesome day and I wouldn't mind going back up again for this event, especially if we can get a few SAU members up there (will give me a chance to meet a few of you first hand).

I'd like to give my 32 a run and my mate will probably give his typhoon a crack aswell (350rwkw)

Hey that sounds great guys.

I always think the same. Lack of Imports at Heathcote. Only one way to fix that. We'll take it over that day.

And as for Car requirements. Your car must be Safe. i,e seats bolted down properly etc, they will check for overflow bottles on Radiators. Have all the main safety features that ur required to have on the street and u'll be fine. No licences required, no cages, extinguisers etc unless your running something very quick (10.99 or better I believe without looking it up)

And wear long sleeve clothing and have a ADR approved Helmet (I just use a basic motorbike Helmet)

Cheers. Luke

  • 2 weeks later...

Ok so far coming in my group

1x C63 AMG

1x R33 GTR 370rwkw

1x Blown LS1 Commodore 400rwkw+

1x Audi - Not sure what, could be a RS5

1x Clio Sport - probably only run a 17 but its a funny little car

Maybe a mates LS1 Monaro N/A 330rwkw.

Could be more coming, few mates are on the fence at the moment.

Awesome. We don't have anything crazy coming from Bendigo that i'm aware of. I'm still the only import in the group. LMAO at the fact I've talked one of my mates into racing my stock statesman V6 down the quarter. (Only so I can have my 2nd car there to carry all my stuff)

Just hoping that the weather holds off. Should be clearing mid week to give a few days to dry out. Heres hoping. Think i've pretty much got everything prepared for the Skyline that I had planned.

And hey. The Clio should be a good match for my Statesman. I dont expect it to do anything better then 16's.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
