Seemed like a stack of fun out there. The wet weather probably made it even more fun :)

I was there to take a look see (my girlfriend and i had the black Labrador puppy with us) and got quite a few pics.

Is there anyone here that had plates on their cars that doesnt want photos put up on the internet? I dont know how to use any form of photo shop properly and would wreck the pics trying to remove the plates :(

What a fantastic day. Big Big BIG thanks to the organsiers and people who make this happen! :thumbsup:

Lol @ the photo.

Him & the White R34 gtr looked awesome out there towards the afternoon.

Does anyone know if the owner of the White R33 GTR with bronze wed or work rims is on here?

Keen to know the turbo setup on his Rb26.

cheers

That is my car.

Quick spec list:

GT block, Tomei 2.8, HKS GT RS's, Tomei 270 @ 10.25, E85, ID 2000 injectors. All the rest of the crap doesnt really matter.

Well folks, I have lots and lots of video to edit. I think I got some really good footage so I just need to sort out some time to do the editing.

Hey Bored33, I've got footage of your car doing a 4 wheel skid smok'n the fronts in addition to the rears. Nice show!

Like everyone else, I had a ball! and the outback steak house feed and talk was great, will definately do that again.

Big thanks to the organisers too!

Was able to take a few future SAU guys for a spin too and I'm sure they had a ball too.

Nice pics Matt! :laugh:.

And thanks for the ride Paul, that 33 is nuts, can't wait for the -5's!

I'll post a youtube link to the movies I took soon.

Puppeh was so cute! I meant to have a pat but I think I was always inside a car when I went past you guys lol

I had a great day.... checked out the EC twilight drifting the night before since us Canberra ppl stayed near there.... and Texi was a million times more entertaining (as usual :P ). Nice to meet a few new faces today too. The BBQ was a nearly massive FAIL haha... but we have some McGuyvers in the club who got it going. Time for a new one I think!

Thanks to everyone I jumped in a car with.. especially the Tats Mobile! :D

HUUUUUUUUUGE thanks to all the helpers and organisers :cheers:

      Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.

      'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.

      So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting

      Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
