Hot, but a great day IMO.

Top stuff from all the volunteers out there in the weather, Very well done and many thanks.

Good to try out a variation on the Lancer theme today.

You should see lots more of the dark green incarnation over the year. FWD +1

looking forward to round two now.

Warm...but awesome day!

Thanks for all those who made it possible, nice work.

Who/where/how to get a copy of the footege(self) from the skid pan?

Short of it be patient pics and vid will get posted as ppl get a chance.

was a GREAT deca!

really enjoyed the maps, and the megaminiwang was 100 times better than the stock miniwang.

flying finishes are FTW! get the cars through faster

HUGE thanx to Leon, Ryan, Bec and all the guys that make this event happen.

also huge thanx to the volunteers!!!!!! you guys did an awesome job in the heat!

well i made it through the day unharmed even in the 40 deg heat! had a few great runs on the pan!

definitely the best driving i've done at a DECA event!

cant wait for round 2!!!!

So that's me done for a bit, been abusing Katie's Mum's internets for the afternoon.

there are a LOT more videos but will take a bit of time to upload (approx 16Gig of them)

so will start uploading when I get home tomorrow.

Legend thanks Martin.

First off, thanks to the SAU organisers and Import Monster for supporting/sponsoring! Was a really well structured day and plenty of action to be had, was abit hot but we got through it. I must say, having done some track work but never a Deca Day - the driving skills of you Nissan people was an eye opener! I was the guy getting around in the red telly-tubby suit :P Most of my skid pan runs were near horrendous but I did get 1 or 2 half decent runs. The Long Mini Wang track was sweet however!

(Yeh I mis-shifted from 1st to 4th half way through haha)

Also big thanks to Leon? for answering my questions via PM prior to the event, Elvis for letting me ride shotgun and stuffing up your run as well from being nav and all the guys who said hi/commented on the boat - was an awesome day, I'd definitely come back!

I had heaps of fun. I've also learn a bit more about my car. :thumbsup: Lots of new smells and sounds coming from it. But because it was my first time competing I got no where near the amount of video I wanted to get. >_<

so for the morning sessions I got all bar 2 when I had to change a battery.

for the battles I got footage of every-one in the left lane and a little bit of the right lane as well.

and a bit of the expressions sessions at the end of the day

all up about 240 videos

well i made it through the day unharmed even in the 40 deg heat! had a few great runs on the pan!

Dude, I'm pretty sure we were all fairly "harmed" from the night before, and lack of sleep.

But huge thanks to everyone that organized it and the volunteers really enjoyed my first DECCA and hope to be back soon.

thanks to all of the volunteers, SAU organisers and import monster, that was a great DECA. :worship: I can't wait for round 2 now, the car is so different to drive now but I am loving the turbo power. On low boost it's actually a lot better on the skidpad than I thought it would be and it was pretty fun on the back track, especially getting loose over those hills. see you all next time :thumbsup:

    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
