i was only going to go to see the drifting... but i aint paying $40 just to see that :)

The drifing will be a bunch of jobbos in their crapadores that come out of a corner sideways and think thats drifting!!

Monday will be good, last years dyno comp had some preety piss poor cars on there 2.

Exactly what I thought INASNT, $40 - GET F&CKED!

Well I went anyway to see what the fuss was all about.

Not worth $40 at all. Don't see how they can justify charging ppl that much.

There was a show n shine with around 9 cars.

The burnout comp was crap. all u can see was smoke.

The drags were ok.

Here are a coupla photos.

That rust bucket nearly had the yellow tt supra.

The cortina beat the gtr by 1-2 car lengths.

    • This is a real nostalgia trip for me, I mean SK Bilsteins? I ran those lol Good times.  Good work Duncan, it's not an easy job in many respects. I'm sure the family appreciates it. 
    • It's not a dumb question. I was circling this idea myself. User error is always possible!
    • Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.
    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
