i've been keeping my eye on this event for a while now. Both the old boy and i r keen. not cheap though, $45 for 7 laps then $35 for the next 7. last time i was out there it was $25 for the 1st 7, $14 for the next and the 3rd was free.

Less of the old boy stuff you young twirp, just remember..on the 30th Nov you'll be squirming around on your knees pleading to borrow a set of my good wheels and tyres.

Oh... by the way.......will you be driving the Skyline....or the Lanos??

PJKJ We will both be there it should be a good day. This will be the first time on the full circuit.

Considering all the claimed 200 to 300 rwkw Skylines that are floating around SE Queensland it surprises me that so few show up to these events.

Question.... Could a 200 to 300rwkw Skyline that never makes it to the dragstrip or racetrack be considered........Rice?? :burnout:

my car is basicly standard except fot the suspention but i guess that makes a huge difference on the race track.

the standard skyline suspention is still pretty good though, u should do a couple of laps PJKJ. How much can u know about ya car and your abilities as a driver untill you've race at full pace around a profestional race track?

hmm, didn't need em last time but they didn't ask for em either. u can pick em up for bout $100 anyway, head to toe clothing is also requiered preferably wool or cotton. anything synthetic is just gonna melt onto u if something catches fire.:eek:

my intercooler is almost on and it looks like i'm going to have to fit a pod filter as my factory one won't fit anymore :D

hopefully i can dodge the cops long enough to get a cold box happening and seal the pod up.

thinking of putting in a 4 point harness aswell, my dad found a place thats selling em cheap along with bucket racing seats. the standard 3 point belt just dosn't hold u in the twisty bits and i really noticed it last time. hard to steer when ya using the steering wheel to keep ya in ya seat.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
