awesome....if I can pay off my latest debt for parts im THERE !!!!

Only problem is I need some tyres....oh and ive NEVER tried properly drifting before fair enough Ive gotten sideways around a corner etc...but yeah total noob....

pete you mentioned last time at the RSL that you had some cheap tyres I can buy for the day...

I have 18x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 rear....anything that will stretch over that will do me fine !

i think i want to come!...

maybe i will!>...need to learn how to drift......

Question : Do the instructors drive the participants car to show what it is capable of?...thats if the participant is new to this?

yea instructors will take you out in your car to giveyou some points

and we also take you out in our car to show your the crazy way todo it

hmmm is there ANY kind of insurance for these days ??

cause my insurance company sure as hell aint gonna cough up if its damaged while drifting at a racetrack.

Just asking cause if I damage it then yeah tough luck for me....but what if one of the instructors cause some damage ?

I mean I know their professionals but hey even monkeys fall off trees......

So to put my mind at ease a little bit can you clarify what exactly they`ll do with your car to show what "its capable of" ?

Sorry for being anal about the whole thing pete...but its something I wanna know....haha ill still attend the day regardless !!!

I mean I know their professionals but hey even monkeys fall off trees......

Generally it takes a MASSIVE f**k up to do any damage at oran park driftland. In general there are not too many incidents and the incidents usually come from someone going way to hard and losing control....

Instructors will not go any where near the limits with your car. Also you are not forced to have an instructor drive your car however it can be very beneficial to see what your car can do if its your firts time.

    • Tried them, they leaked. I also foolishly bought some random rubber ones that leaked too.  Genuine and not looked back.    As always though sample size of one, and I could have made a mistake installing them. 
    • Technically still manual process to set it first time though
    • Shit job but not hard. I'd use a piece of wood to knock the plastic lid open to avoid damaging it, use a vacuum to clean up the fuel sender lid also so crap doesn't fall in. I'd probably do pump and filter at the same time since you're already in there, I reused my OEM sock after a quick clean since the one provided wasn't long enough. Could also hardwire your pump if you feel inclined.
    • Supercheap auto sell this: https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/pat-plusquip-fuel-tank-lock-ring-tool---universal-kit/SPO3564082.html I own this and if you HAVE PATIENCE you can remove it without snapping lines and generally being incredibly angry, then said at doing this job. Sadly I've removed the pump about 75,000 times over the years. I don't know if you're a large lad or a smaller lad but my advice to you as someone who is 185cm is if you are my height or smaller, is to sit in the boot and take your time. Yes you can put the seal on. The seal goes over the white thing/lid (you will see how it 'slots' in) then the whole assembly presses into the tank. then you screw the lock ring on. I spent so much time doing things the wrong way by trying to mount the seal into the tank first, then putting the white fuel hat on in the space provided. Put it together first then it'll all go in. But seriously be careful about removing the hoses AND where the removal tool is moving relative to the plastic pipes coming out of the lid when you've removed it. IT IS BRITTLE So brittle in fact I have two spare lids, and would recommend buying a spare and having it handy before attempting to do this. May as well throw https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD in the tank as well, as this uses all stock plugs and such. You may need to/strongly recommend you re-use your OEM fuel sock or use the one supplied with a length of hose so it sits at the stock height.
    • The tension is automatic....if you follow the installation instructions Self adjusting tensioners are used when the chain/belt is expected to stretch during it's service life, but the downside is the tensioner itself can fail and cause a problem, while the RB system is locked once it is installed and doesn't have that risk
