Great day out.

Massive thanks to Jack for letting me take the keys to his GTR for the day... Certainly very different driving experience to how my GTR was setup before i sold it. I have new appreciation for the Racepace transfer case modifications :D

Didn't get any footage of the ducks/geese on Mega Mini Wang on my run where i had to go off road mid-run to avoid... By god that was a very close call to utter disaster.

Fun times, great day - thanks to all that make the days happen.

^lol @ the 86. Go Az, go!

Bring on teh pics!!

don;t know about you but I'm watching the pics on a number of face book feeds getting messier and messier.

This was an awesome day! Thanks guys for putting this on, it truly was an experience I won't forget!

Quick question, When will we be able to see all of the videos that were filmed with that tripod on the skidpan?

I thought they were for some weirdo's "personal" collection

thanks to the event organisers and volunteers. great weekend.

am keen for times and slow-motion videos :)

if someone wants a hand entering times into the spreadsheet, im happy to help out. got Monday off to recover

Ash... Thanks for not smashing my GTR... One of the best DECAs I have been to. Courses were much better then any previous Deca I have done. Well done to organizers.

I was being as kind as i could mate :thumbsup:

Certainly more challenging to drive yours, was farken good fun.

It was good fun to be back at a DECA day, but because I was not driving it really got me wanting to get back out there in my car.

Just checked my Drift Calendar and for once DECA and the drift day are 1 week apart, so I can do both :D

First time, had an absolute blast, as has been said thanks to the organisers for making it all happen and for making it an open event,

the atmosphere was great, i was driving the gold with black roof 180sx which is a good fun car.

Cheers,

Andy

Hey Martin, Nice video. Did you have a steer this time?

Good to see Aaron out having a go! He loops the 86 better than a WRX that's for sure...

nah trying to behave myself a little atm, so no decas.

Painfully didn't even got out in shepp as we had to be in melb early morning.

add to this I'm missing december one.

SO I have come to a conclusion.

we best have some flying fishes for first one next year as I'm putting in my entry now ;)

    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
