Stevesn just upset cos u r whoring his thread, but we all know he whores everyone elses...

nah, just trying to redirect Matt away from this whole drag thing, and it worked:p

The signal guys will be here for a few days at least. James has a lot of spares there, so most things shouldnt be a problem - its amazing what you can source on short notice if you have to. Signal can make things happen pretty quick too, James got some tyre sent out from Japan within days for the Melb drift comp because signal made a phone call for him. they have alot of sway with other companies in Japan, PLUS they have a huge number of bits on the shelves over there - so when the manager of Signal calls and tells them to make something happen, it will. (Hiko san, the manager of Signal will be out too, he is the owners brother, so if he cant make things happen, they were never meant to be)

Fuel, well thats easy, just drain and refill.

If everything goes pie eyed, well thats just the nature of the beast - it does happen. But this sort of opportunity wont come knocking too often. If I worry too much about what might go wrong, then I would probably never get anything done. Spose all I can do is prep the car the best I can, plugs, fuel filter, make sure there isnt anything else obviously wrong and leave the rest to the gods:)

AFAIK its still going ahead - have to check. James was trying to get it orgainised for mid May to coincide with the Drift day - he mentioned Bai was planning on heading over at the same time so he could carve up Mallala.

I will have to confirm dates, unless autObarn is out there and can confirm?

Hi all

seeking expressions of interest

D1 Garage are looking like getting Signal Japan's top tuner out here to perform their magic, they will be bringing all the laptop software for Japanese ECUS.  

It wont be cheap, expect to pay between $1000 and $1500 for a full tune - not just power, but a full map from idle.

Whilst this isnt cheap, it is quite good value for a japanese tuning guru to come over and get the best possible safe performance from your car.  

Numbers available, currently need 5 cars to make it worth while for the tuner to come out - air fairs hotel accomodation etc.  

currently 3 spots are pretty much spoken for

Anyway guys, please put the word out, I would really love to see what these guys can do with my car - this is pretty close to a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Hey Man, put me down on your list, i have a fussy bit at the top of my rev range no-one seems to be able to get rid off! I have no problem paying as long as i get a wicked tune! :aroused:

I wonder who I sent it to then?????? Sent one seconds after my last post on this thread?

I actually have bad news. Signal are going to be busy around mid May - just found out today:( I checked with James, and he is negotiating for another date, but he doesnt want to commit until it is confirmed - shouldnt be too long though.

I will definately let you know as soon as its confirmed.

    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
    • No, so what happened is. I put a bunch of filler then I sanded it all down, I removed all the filler (unintentionally), then I put the epoxy primer on because that section of the panel is bare metal. The car is parked outside so I needed to protect it in the meantime incase it rains.
    • It’s definitely an import, the Aussie ones have reflectors in the rear bar, it’s also a turbo which none of the Aussie one were.    I remember back in the day I want a twin turbo z32 so bad and then I saw a 32 gtr and that was the end of that lol
