Hmmm... got there about 1pm and the display was emptying fast. Maybe I misunderstood something. The printed poster didn't have any times on it. Website said 9am to 11am for competitors, which I assumed was setting up time.

Oh well.

Was too hot down there to hang around. Very little shade. A few people started leaving around 11. By 12.30 most had had enough of sitting in the sun. Was a great turnout for the Nissan Datsun community though, we had as many cars in our group as the rest of them put together. I think there were around 86 cars in the Nissan Datsun field. Some classic oldies there too, I counted 14 princes of all different kinds, including a couple of Glorias. There were 5 or 6 R30's of different makes, and a genuine Hako. Was a great day out. Would have been better at another venue, where there might have been more exposure to the public, but it was better to have it at Dandy, than not at all :)

      The FD RX7 is the best looking 90's JDM car

      Well it does have a motor with the same DNA as an Accord V6 motor. The J30A is a successor to the Tiger rice cooker C32A motor found in those cars.

      FD RX7 I would probably marry if legal R32 GTR is toughest NSX looks like it's made from leftover Prelude and Accord bits

      R34 Wheel Alignment Specs

      When going to a suspension shop should I send them the default nissan settings or just let them do their own thing? I ask this because I have aftermarket rear camber arms and my car is lowered a bit (front end is basically stock after I change to those nismo bushes)

      Ok sounds good, thanks for your help. Hopefully if I end up changing it to the nismo bushes I don't get that veering issue. I don't think there's a point in lubing up these bushes again. Weird that it it makes just as much noise with all the grease inside it versus without grease prior to removal. Bizarre.

      Yeah, you don't need camber bushes on stock arms to make a car drive straight unless it's got another problem. F'rigsample, slide the thing into a kerb, bend the front subframe mounts a little....subframe is now twisted, shifted or otherwise in the wrong spot...and you need to do funky stuff with the wheel alignment to get it to drive straight. Maybe a little more caster on one side, or a little more camber. FWIW, I can have my camber off side to side by a half a degree or more, and either way, so more one side, or more on the other, and the car doesn't really want to pull to one side. It will definitely ride road camber differently, and want to track uphill (ie, towards the centreline when on the LHS of a normal crowned piece of road, like it should) or want to roll downhill (which it really shouldn't). But on fairly flat road surfaces, like the middle of a 3 or 4 lane motorway, a half a degree either way doesn't make a lot of difference. I sometimes do quite a few miles with my wheel alignment messed up, because I don't always get a chance to set it right again after a serious dismantling, before I have to drive it to work again. Like, a whole week's worth of daily shuffle.
