still more in it steve lol.

luke: yeah i know i had a list of ppl who missed out... and yeah for sure come for a ride!

yeah figured you would have, well put my name on the list for next time then :D

yea, bit of a woops on the skid pan, dunno how either lol,

just panel damage, nothing sticky tape and cable ties wont fix :-)

lol at iron chefs corner, scared the f**k out of me when it started looping i immediately thought " that wall looks pretty hard"

but all good, managed to slide that bend pretty consistant for rest of the day.

tax cheque is now spent before i even get it lol, partially on simon modding my knuckles! much needed! and solid cradle bushes, and a tune.

heres a vid on the skid pan with adrian as passenger, fabs in front,

I was pretty impressed at how hard people were going round 'Iron Chef Corner' and the straight following.

its pretty fun when its wet, limiter in 3rd with only 140kw, no chance at doing the whole corner in the dry with my car tho

Tailem ran a 400m event last year (September if I remember right)

It was good enough for my EVO X to run an 11.9

and a mates turbocharged LS1 a 12.2 (on Achilles street tyres of all things)

Now apparently its unsafe to run cars 400m there - although the surface was totally fine, CAMS even let us run in the wet, and there was no problem with that either. Let the Sporting Car Club run these meets and they will be 400m. For some reason ANDRA seem hell bent on making everything into an 1/8th mile....we already have four such tracks. We do not need another.

Standing 1000m would be even better. The deep end is where the fun is.

For a cheaper sport, try knitting, not castrating drag racing.

Twenty 20 short format suits cricket, not cars IMO.

Lobby the Sporting Car Club and we will get the 400m events back :)

Truer words have never been spoken.

I might head out for some runs at this 1/8th mile thing in August just for a look (haven't been to the TB track before), and for some legal tyre warmup burnouts (assuming they are still allowing THAT)

I just ran my car in hicas diagnostics mode and it flashed once but nothing else (to my understanding that tells me there are no problems) am I correct?

Car is 93 r32 Gtr with standard steering wheel and all that jazz..

Another happy Matsuri customer here! Spent a bit of time in Daves car and alot in Brads, was gonna find Craig for a run but couldnt find your garage haha.

Few cars a bit sad and sore afterwards, especially that s13 that rolled!

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
