If people have some little things to do to their cars that they cant get done till Friday night, like fire extinguishers. Just bring everything you need down with you. Their will be plenty of hands and plenty of tools to use.

ferni - Bruce is infact not running. There was an entry form mistake. Maybe if Jack gets off his ass and sends his form in he will take his spot in our group.

Jerermy Bevan - unless he has changed cars recently - will be driving a dark green stock looking 200SX (S14) that you will get upset by when he kicks your ass. Not a SAU member but I remember being beaten by him at Sandown last year when I first started out and thinking WTF??? As mentioned it LOOKS completely stock. Even has the stock (aka POX) S14 rims on it still. He used to run in the MSCA track events. If he's in the 200SX he was lapping the Island last year in the 1.53's. Ultimate track sleeper.

1.53 in a 200sx hey, damn, if he's running semi-slicks he doesn't count :) or give me a ~3second headstart heh. Whats he running that makes it so quick?

I've had a major set back with my car. As some of you know I ordered a 400r Copy, which was actually for a GTST. I sent it back to NSW and got a Jun Style bar sent back. I went to fit it last night and the mould is just crap. It's bowed in the middle and leaves a 15mm gap between the headlights and the bar, no matter how hard I push it up.

I'm calling the head scutineer now to see if I can run on Saturday without a front bar.

For Aaron and Koah,

Extinguisher Mounts in my car.

First on the drivers side rear seat you can see the seat bolt I am talking about. However - we normally mount them on the passenger side as you can see. Unscrew the seat bolt and put it through the mount and bolt it back in (you will have to drill out the hole on the mount a little to fit the seat bolt through the hole). Then clip the extinguisher in and Bob's you uncle.

Dont mean to nag people, but are you all abel to confirm if you are intending on staying any of the 3 nights. Neither Snowie or I are able to cancel the rental accom we have arranged, but i can cancel as long as i pay a cencellation fee. If there is only going to be 3 people in my place then that works out to be a fair sum of coinage so will mean im better paying the cancellation fee and getting some money refunded.

At the moment my understanding is that:

- Ant95GTR + 1

- Roy

- West

- skyline_geoff

So with only 5 people for what nights i dont know. But its $140 per night

Possibly

- Emre, may stay with Andrew?

Andrew - Faxed the form off first thing this morning, my fax machine at home was playing up so the missus had to do it at work.... Should be on the list by tomorrow...hopefully....

Its gonna be 30 degrees on Saturday so the track should be nice and sticky for all you schumacher's (Snowman/Chris), don't think it would make a difference to me as I'll be just strolling along.....

I seem to have gotten number 47. Its a gtst auto so nothing to fear. I feel i should be in a more handicapped group.

I will be going down quite late, like 9pm, with some friends who are putting me up.

Robin - if you read this it's Midnight TONIGHT (I said Thursday) thats the cut-off. So if you send it in today it should all be sweet. PS - is it Robin Feburary?

Looking at the list there was about 15 spots left.

But great to see we got some late entries in! Brings us up to 17 club members which is a great effort. It's going to be a good weekend. Couldn't ask for better weather either.

    • Dry sump? Is that like where you don't put oil in, and leave the car parked in the garage because it's worth so much now and is like a beautiful museum piece? 😛
    • Nissan Fuga Y50 2009 VQ35HR 313 hp / 230 kW RWD Also sold as Infiniti M overseas. Performance sedan built on the same chassis as Skyline V36 or Infiniti FX. Great colour with a fantastic velour interior. Very quiet and fast car (<6s 0-100), but can also be very economical for performance (long-term average consumption 11/100 km) I imported it five years ago, and it was well looked after. It has a full service history and a balance of ACT rego. There are no finance or PPSR issues with the car. Has all the features you'd expect from a luxury car. ABS brakes Stability control Traction control Dual-zone climate control Power and memory front seats and steering column Power passenger ottoman Smart key access Push button start 2 parking cameras Steering wheel audio controls Adaptive radar cruise control AFS aiming headlights Xenon HID headlights Security system Original Nissan remote start system Two original keys Dual-channel dashcam Blackvue 750 with PowerMagicPro for battery-aware parking recording Regularly serviced with a lot of major items done: Full new original Nissan suspension shocks throughout Performance CSF radiator Recent tyres, less than 10k on them New drive belt New bonnet struts Brakes recently done The car comes with a fully converted AV system with Australian GPS maps, DVD, and radio ($2k job). I really love this car, but I have too many cars and too many Nissans in the family, so unfortunately, I need to sell it. Priced at $18500 The car can be seen in Curtin. Thank you for your attention.  
    • Here are a few photos.  The car is auction grade 4.5B and a genuine 1 owner car, as far as I can tell...  It has a full service history with only 31,000km in it.  I'd love to put a midpipe and tune on it but I am thinking that I'll retain its originality.
    • I can be grumpy!  After owning one of the first GTRs in the country, I was bitten by the nostalgia bug and started the hunt for a GTR again.  While I could have bought a car locally, I wanted to experience the search for a car in Japan and bidding at auction.  The above videos document my experience to date and hope forum members find them interesting and informative.  I was after a low mileage, completely stock car in the launch colour and am pretty stoked with what I got!
    • Did you calibrate the throttle in the Haltech? It might be falling in and out of the closed loop strategy, especially if the car has been tuned on different TPS voltages.
