Wow, What a great weekend! Thanks to the organisers and the officials for all of their hard work.

Results are up so quickly which is awesome, only one thing..... In the results you have me and Sean in a RWD, we were in AWD. ;)

Which means 3rd in AWD for me, best result for me at Deca ever! Awesome.... :D

We just came down to spectate this time but we had just as much fun as always, Saturday night was a cracker, so glad we stayed :D

Keiran: You're driving has gotten much better since I last watched you at a DECA, top work! That was me who made the Supra/water comment, you know how much I love Supras... Also what was in that shot at Taco Baz's?

Shane: Awesome result! Thanks for the passenger ride too, I needed a GT-R fix :D

Juzzy: Bloody good effort given the condition of those tyres!

Leon: You beat Campbell in your own car - YAY lol

I thought dinner run much smoother this time, for me the food and service was better (I had the mexican, a few people had the parmi and said they didn't feel rash hot but I'd say it was more likely the alcohol talking).

Spewing blood!! That one cone on the Mini Wang Finish Gate cost me 1st place...arrgh... :domokun:

Ryan you're a legend getting the results out so fast...congratulations to the winners...missed out narrowly this time...

Awesome!

Some real surprises in the results!

Russell YOU SUCK! Not even top ten! Proof that your DECA Championship win last year was A FLUKE! Campbell sucks at DECA as well as dick.

And Leon, you should be winning these things...its tradition...Ryan won alot when we was doing them...wait...he still wins :( is he really still running them and youre posing Leon?

Top work Shane and Juz reppin AWD but as if a RWD won considering the conditions!

Ash...making excuses again? Of course you are.

Good work Ryan getting the results up so quick - that HAS to be a record! Im sure thats due to someones fancy work on the spreadsheet.

I have a heap of videos uploading atm.

(around 150 in full HD) they are just taking a while....there is 9 gig or so of them.

I "think" I have got most cars at least once. people in the 2nd group prob more than once.

eg roman there is 4 of yours from the skid pan during the day.

Thus I uploaded pics first as much smaller.

there were a few more cameras out there as well and know laith is probably in a worse spot than me frantically uploading.

SO be patient and know they are coming soon.

Awesome!

lol no excuses here, the WD's were well deserved. One can't do 4WD circle work and expect to get a decent time :teehee:

This should be accessible for everyone, a few car shots and some from the night out.

I think between Kate and I we took more pics of Leon and Campbell than anyone else for some reason but there are a few others also.

Massive thanks to Leon, Bec and Ryan (wait, so as not to create further confusion) Ryan, Leon and Bec for organising everything. Big thanks to all the volunteers who stood out in the freezing cold, and of course to Import Monster for sponsoring.

Dan: Thanks for the water and dfloor rescuing, although I still think that Parmi wasn't right!

Mr. and Mrs. Pryor: Was good chatting with you guys, I'll definitely drag Lauren down to the next one (even if only to prove she exists). She also wants to thank you for finally convincing me to go on a holiday, Thai water fights sound good.

Campbell: Thanks for all the shots. I think.

Tim: You're shit.

Thanks to everyone else for the laughs, advice, photos, videos etc. Probably my last run at DECA in the Supra, will probably volunteer for the rest of the year then hopefully buy an R32 or 180 early next year.

Oh and congrats Ryan! Between watching you, Leon and Roman you three all put up an excellent show of why one should buy a 180. Russell you need to get back out there and wave the R32 flag.

I got 21st, not 28th!

I managed like 170+ points on the morning skidpan, then only got like 40 for all my wang runs combined lol. Like I said, I just need to grow some balls and get push myself a little more.

Nah Roman wasn't going for times, he never does. Nevertheless his driving was still very impressive. 180's just seem like an extremely fun car to drive, more than capable of been driven seriously or stupidly.

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
