Try and get some decent in-car footage this time, for those of us who can't be there :( Best of luck, maybe Gav and Chris will have gearbox issues :whistling:

It'll be during the day so should be able to get some decent footage,

yeah anything is possible with these boxes, Chris seems to be very gentle with his, but with the torque Gav is putting out the thing eats boxes for breakfast, I assume he's still running the standard one ?

Need to find time in the next couple of weeks to put my OS box back in so hopefully it wont be me have box issues... but I'm thinking of doing a couple of runs down the strip next wednesday before I change boxes, so I can compare 60foot times between the standard and OS 1st,, definately wont be doing to much clutch frying tho, don't have time to rebuild that before T/A .. I'll put the word out if it's going to happen :thumbsup:

Hey guys this a post of some urgency and look has a few of us worried and rightly so.

Track battle is coming and the number of local entries is dramatically low, we only have 11 drivers to represent what has been advertised as a huge following of drift in w.a, which I also believe to be true. Shit I kno it, and many of u also know we have a fairly decent following and its only going to get bigger, but when all the media come over and find that we are struggling to make the numbers, this will not encourage such events to come back, and going back to those years in d.a, we will lose rounds to such places as Tasmania(and I kno how freakin pissed I was)

Seriously, what are peoples reasons for either

a ) leaving it last minute

b ) not interested or

c ) other,

Dont say entry fee, cos how long has it been since our last event, Collie? We havent had a round 1 and we have almost NO drift until feb next year which is a cda. Is it not worth the $380 to drive alongside first rate Australian drivers and just have generally freakin good time?

I have LITERALLY poured every cent I have to make this round and seriously been a bum not going out socially etc so I can be ready. Why you may ask? Because I dont want to have a car iv spent $20+k on sitting in my driveway collecting dust. And I intend on drifting in the many years to come.

With the new track setup the cost of tyres/fuel/etc is dramatically reduced aswell.

Absolute kudos goes to out Keith for all that he has done past, present and Im sure future also. He is going above and beyond to inject life into what was a diminishing sport.

I mean cmon, he buys a transporter and sends our drivers to S.A, sends them over to WTAC, also sends them over to ADGP and G1, this incurs a MASSIVE cost to which he derives no profit from, just pure pleasure and self satisfaction he gets to and provide the avenue for others to do what we love most, DRIFT! He even has had a massive hand in the ADGP. He has been raving about how big drift is in W.A, and for everyone to get here and get a half assed reception, man I can understand how much disappointment he may feel if it comes to that.

Hey now some of you may look at this and say meh, some may also agree with what I have to say, but plain and simply all i want from this is as many entries as we can for this event.

Id love for this event to be a massive success so we can host plenty more in the future.

So cmon guys get motivated, call up all the favours your owed, get ur shitters ready and send those entries in. For me, I know Ive tried on this forum and il send txts out to all the drivers I know too. If it works, was worth the time iv spent writing this out, if it doesnt, il still have a blast at the event but have piece of mind I know I tried to help with this venture.

See all you guys around the traps.

Regards,

Harry Buck aka Muddy.

P.S Those of you who are worried bout cost and using 235/45/r17s, I can get Duruns for $68ea, hit me up if you need some.

      Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.

      GTR Festival (Aus) - 2025 - Stagea Alley

      By alexburns · Posted

      https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au

      Series 2 R33 GTS25T?

      By Skip33 · Posted

      Do I have a series 2 or has someone spent money to have a series 1/1.5 look like a series 2? Everything I have read says the series 2 came out in 1996. I have a car manufactured in December 1995. The exterior, engine and interior are all series 2 other than the dash facia is series 1. Paint code is also kr4 that I believe is only available on a series 2. I have a VX Vehicle History Report and it says Grade: GTS25T TYPE M2 Manufacture date: 1995-12 Make: NISSAN Model: SKYLINE Body: E-ECR33 Grade: GTS25T TYPE M2 Engine: RB25DET Drive: 2WD Transmission: F5

      I went to Repco to get them to test the battery using their tester (not a volt meter), alternator shows 14.3v when running, and when the car was off after the it was on full load I think it was 12.6v but the guy said it was all good. Terminals are all clean, no corrosion. Though I coulda sworn when I tightened up my alternator belt the car idles a bit higher and the steering wheel shakes a bit until it's warmed up. I wanted to confirm for the earth cable/s, are you referring to the 2 wires that are bolted onto the frame rail under the battery? I might be overthinking this a bit.
