Nirimba?

Quakers Hill near Blacktown Matt.

Not really my thing Steveo, I really enjoy the Sutton type stuff but I find Nirimba a bit meh. Sorry, just me............waits for flaming

That's why I very rarely do skids, just don't see the point and also can't afford that much rubber all the time ;)

Fair enough!

It's designed for people to try and do the best time through the course just like Sutton, the difference is at Sutton there's no skids, at Nirimba it's perfectly allowed if the driver wants to do it during their run and smoke the place up.

Matt this is Nirimba. Not as fun as Sutton but it's still great to get the bug out of your system. Most of the guys who go will bring 2 spare wheels and rubbish tyres from their local tyre shop (usually free) so they stuff the free rubber and then have their normal tyres/wheels safely tucked away and not worn out

Ah here's the video I wanted, this is a video made by Eric, sort of gives you a better idea - it's not a burnout comp, there's just a lot of smoke. This is the next club event btw people - entry thread up soon!

Here's what it looks like when you care about your time and dont just muck around

Here is me at Texi answering the big question NOBODY asked! Can you drift a 2004 Subaru Liberty 3.0R?

The answer is no :(

Rwd has to chose between launching or corner speed..

Soften damper on the rear and back off the rear swaybar, if your pro enough u can pre load ur clutch so it doesn't shock the tyres as much

LOL fatz

was that you filming her and vica versa? if so then while your quicker off the line she is far and away a better camera operator! nice little pan down to the kid at the end jenna!

I don't think swaybars do much until you load up a corner or side of the car. I think they do little to nothing to influence traction in a straight line

saw the pics and vids on facebook, looked like an awesome event.

ps: anyway possible to speak with the track owners/insurance to allow ext gate at track days :)

if not then looks like i can only be apart of it if you guys need help on the day.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
