Congrats on the new PB, Paul and Stace. What was the MPH? What tyres?

What did the other GTR's run and who won the category?

133 MPH on ET street radials

other GTR's markr34gtr ran a 9.6 before destroying his engine in the finals

Theo ran 9.9 and broke something

catergory was won by a little datto

Was a pretty good day, but it certainly wasn't as big as last year. Was good to meet some of the NSW guys and girls. Got some pics of the NSW camp atmosphere, the QLD SAU display, John's supercharged V8 R33 and my GTR and mini. As usual the mini pulled way more interest than the GTR ;)

the GTR is Keirs isn't it?

Has the Willall Sticker on it

Yes that is Keir Wilson's car and I have to congratuale him on the pass he did on Saturday. As he managed an 8.8 sec pass at a massive 160mph!

The car is absolutely marvelous and impecable. Well done to Keir and his Willall racing.

P.S. Can anyone confirm what tires he used to do this pass?

Kier's car uses Mickey Thompson ET Street Drag Radials 275 x 40 x 17. Same as TWOOGLE. That was the 2nd quickest ever pass by a GTR using radial tyres.

And YES well done to Kier, it was awesome.

Good to meet you guys out there!!

Was nice to meet the NSW people and put faces to the nicknames we see daily. Pity Adrian couldn't compete further, but that's what happens in motorsport I guess.

Thanks to the SAu members who put their cars on display and helped out during the day. It surely did make for an entertaining day.

Thanks Nismogirl...wearing my shirt as i type. Love the pics of our camp....would love to see some of our cars in action....did anybody take any??

I'm trying to get some off a friend of mine that's a photographer, I'll let you know how I go and post them here.

Alternative is to keep an eye out on some of the local forums up here.

www.boostcruising.com

www.qldstreetcar.com

www.cruisingbrisbane.com

All three of those have mountains of jamboree photos.

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
