I'm stoked, I got a 14.507 @ 91.6mph on low boost (9psi) in the morning with a fair bit of knock due to the heat (it was already close to 30degC at around 10.15am). This was my second run, and I've never dragged before.

In the arvo with the cooler weather, I did a few more runs in low boost to check for knock, then went for it in high (12psi) and got my best run of a 13.817 @ 95.23mph on my second last run.

Not bad for an RB25DET Stagea with minimal mods (full exhaust, return-feed FMIC, PowerFC, EBC and fuel pump) running an otherwise standard engine and turbo. I wish I'd remembered to check the weight during scruitineering, but it would quite easily top 1700kgs.

Massive thanks to all the SAU-NSW Exec crew (Eric, Dave, Duncan, Liz, Shell, Steve-O, etc.) and our volunteer support network (BenM, Sean, Mitch, etc.) for putting this together.

Also thanks to our very own Tats for the commentary throughout the day, he sounded much more professional than I did over the PA system

Funnist moment in there-

Me " just a little lower Louise"

Bahahaha. I still find that funny!! Lol

Thanks to all for a great day, well run.

Only had eleven runs due to the heat, car run like a swiss watch all day, worst run was my first with a 12.7, best was a 11.3.

took plenty of pics and vid, will post up later. :thumbsup:

BIG Thanks to Dave and the SAU team for hosting such a great day cant wait till the next 1(if i can come again)

Ran 11.4 on the fist run on low boost then 11.7 on the 2nd but the block split half track witch ended my day

Highlight off the day was watching the silver Skyline with the Microtech sticker on the side off it running a 12 at 130mph this thing was sideways from the start to the finish line he must have big balls to drive something like that

Thanks again Todd (Black Dato 1600)

Was a great day me and my wife were there for the nissansilvia.com drifting,

But we spent half our time watching the drags, one of the best days out we've had in a while

I thought I saw you out there, but wasn't sure if it was. You were both wearing black?

Thanks to SAU:NSW for organising a great event, shame the car called it quits just before lunch (silver 1600).

Had 4 and a half runs, best was the very first one of 11.6 @ 123mph 1.8 60ft

Best mph was 125

Awesome to be able for have 4 runs within an hour, compared to 1 run per hour on Wednesday nights.

Aww really you should have said hi, yeah that was us, I don't own anything that's not black, I was there with my new 200sx Im considering buying a track only s13 or r32 for drifting now

Nice one Pete :) I better pull my finger out and run a decent number in the 200 or your going to catch and pass me :D

Not likely mate. 2 second 60fters for the rest of the runs

Speaking of Pro street towing......Joe towed me back home after I broke my cv - nice guy to come out on a nice Sunday afternoon

I hear from him the car is back at UE for the injectors - had mind put in an tuned on the Thursday night.

YOU MOFO'S WANT SOME PICS???

If you entered and arrived on the day you'll have a disc sent to you in about a fortnight. Until then here's a a few to keep you going :D

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
