Huge thanks to the organizers and volunteers as always.

I'd also like to thank everyone who came and looked at my car when it started making strange noises. I made it home, and oddly enough that squeaky noise vanished on the way. Engine still isn't happy though so here's hoping it's nothing major.

Thanks for the video Martin

Another really well run day by the organizers so thank you and the volunteers for letting the day flow.

I have like 600+ photos of assorted cars but whats an easy/quick way to share them?

easily one of the most enjoyable weekends I've had in a long time!
Will definitely be back throughout next year, hopefully problem free too :)

& f*ck me you guys are hilarious!

Cheers to all who helped & organised :)

Good to hear people had a fun day. Big thanks to femno, russ, Benny kieren and Leon for the drives. It was only the day before I said I didn't care if my car broke, I just hoped it was at the end of the day. . 7 years that gearbox lasted so can't complain. Love driving the drift car, well set up and awesome balance. bens car is nuts, shame it broke in the end. kierens car is surprisingly quick. quickest rwd out the back ;). Leons backyard dry sump is rubbish but the car is awesome on and off road.

Thanks to our volunteers, especially jake and trent. You guys rock.

As for next year nothing has been planned as of yet. There is going to be a few changes which we will update everyone on asap.

Yet another awesome DECA!

I had a great time with all the SAU peeps.

Another Sat night epic lol. Sorry to whoever copped a pizza slice in their room. Seemed like a good idea at the time -_-

CHEESECAKE

I had to leave at 8:45am on Sunday to get back to Melbourne on time for other stuff, so got nicely toasted beforehand and during dinner then headed back to the motel.

In the morning there was pizza everywhere... Keiran was rolling his spare tyre towards his car as I was packing up mine and it was picking up random bits of salami along the way.

Can someone explain what happened in the carpark that night? Was there a drunken food fight again?

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
