Also, check the 'Hill Climb Sup Regs' PDF link on the left menu for more info.

I think the address is:

Collingrove Hill Climb

Lot 100, Hill Climb Road

Angaston Rural

This is where the WRX club use to have one of their track events, wish SA had an official SAU club.

Hillclimb - cool! I opened the Hillclimb Pdf, that indicates the Hillclimb to be on the following weekend 12 June 2005.. is that a second climb or the actual date? Let us know as I'm quite keen too

oops sorry, didnt check the dates there. The one 'jager' was referring to is this one - http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...showtopic=91758

The track is 7kms SE of Angaston on the Angaston to Eden Valley Rd, if you get lost Im sure the locals in the Barossa can direct you.

OK, from town the easiest way is as follows.

1. Go straight up Main North Road

2. Go around the Gawler Bypass and keep heading along the Sturt Highway towards Nuriootpa.

3. You will come to a fairly major turn off to Tanunda on your RIGHT, via Gomersal Road (possibly Highway). Take this all the way to the end.

4. At the end turn LEFT onto the main street of Tanunda.

5. Continue down the street through Tanunda untill you come to a S-bend/railway crossing and turn RIGHT at the SECOND Road. (you want the one that is almost directly ahead, not the one back towards Tanunda)

6. Follow this road for a while ignore the first sign to Angaston(I've oly been that way at night so i don't really know it.) go over a train crossing and past the VINPAC factory on your right.

7. You will come to a cross intersection with a sign saying Angaston to the RIGHT , follow that. This will take you up the Main street.

8. When you reach the end of the main street you must turn RIGHT.

9. Follow this road past the Collingrove Homested, keep going untill you see a sign for the Collingrove Hillclimb on the left. Turn down the dirt road immediatly after the sign.

The gate to get in, is on the left, By this time you should have a pretty good idea of what's going on!

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear! Stock quantities: NA1 Honda NSX - 1 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1990-na1-honda-nsx 1973 Toyota Celica LB 2000GT - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1973-toyota-celica-lb-2000gt 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sport - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1968-mazda-cosmo-sport 1970 KPGC10 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1970-kpgc10-nissan-skyline-2000gt-r
