A special thanks also goes to Foresite Training for allowing us to run this event at their awesome venue. The CAMS and safety guys also for their time and effort. All up more than a great day and hope to see some of you at our other motorsport events through the year :)

That was a fun, well-organised day, thanks heaps to all involved. There were some damn nice cars out too, and I have to say, a pretty good variety.

I couldn't stay for the whole thing unfortunately (had to leave around 2) but managed to chat to a few people, and (finally!) joined the club. Looking forward to the next event :)

Big thanks to all running the event. First time doing a motorkhana and had an awesome time, I never thought I'd have to really study the maps...I was wrong. Some great cars and peeps. The audi rs5 stands out in my head....that car can move.

I only turned up to watch the last 2 hours, but it looked like a lot of fun; will definitely have to join in the next one! Brought along the o'l SLR and point and shoot, here are two videos and as soon as I can work out how to post them, I have a bunch of pics too.

Yeah well done guys and thanks. Day was run very well - especially considering first run of the event.

Kind of refreshing not feeling like death slightly warmed up on the Sunday after an SAU VIC motorkhana event.

Charles was it you that almost hit the wall barrier. I threw up in my mouth a little watching. Everyone was wrapped when it stopped in time. Bet you were too

Lol unfortunately yes haha, I was way too tired as the day got on, could barely concentrate :S

But like they say in FnF, it doesn't matter if you miss by an inch or a mile, missing's missing right? haha.

Here's what it looked like in car...

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
