Hey again everyone, was just wondering if anyone was up for a formal run for August 16th, just looking for a Nice, Clean example to carry My date and I from Queanbeyan (around 5:00), Past the Lake for Photos and then to the Hellenic club at around 7:00ish. Anyone who's interested just post up or PM me, and I can offer a bit for fuel (Prices :()

P.S. Some of you must think i am a Formal whore .... Well I am :D and I've still got more to come at the end of the year

P.P.S. Anyone is welcome to tag along, But I'm only looking for one car to carry people, and due to past experience convoys are just to hard to organise, but if people want they can make it a cruise or a twighlight photo shoot at the lake

P.P.P.S If anyone can get onto these guys personally as they all have been wonderful in the past and it would be great if I could get any of them again. Richard, Jayce, Goran, Phil, Shawn, Nathan, Rachel, and anyone who has come that I forgot their real names (skyGTRline)

Thanks Richard, Come anyway even if its not up for the lead car. Can you get inb touch with the other guys for me to see if any of them are up for it. Glad your coming this year, Missed you, Jayce and Goran last year, So it will be good to see you again :happy:

Goran, if your ghosting the forums :pirate: would you like to tag along. J what about E's? just a simple cruise on a Wednesday eve...May get some pics of a few nice rides.

The driveway at the Hellenic is a pain in the A when there's a crowd so will just swing by the outside.

The Museum however is awsome for formals as the area is just right.

Formal season already? Are you serious? It’s not even remotely warm yet!

If Jerry can have my car back to me in time then yeah I’d be happy to take you. Have to let me find that out first though.

Which formal is it?

We need a formal calendar I think lol…

CHANGE of PLANS

I'm doing this one as a favour for my best mates younger sister, and she said she wants to go early so she can get photo's at the hellenic club, so for whoever is going you will be getting there fairly early, so you guys wont get a big showy entrance. But buy all means still come along for a Wednesday Night cruise and check out some cars.

I've allready asked MKDR33 to give us a lift, but things might change.

The meeting place will be 53 morton St Queanbeyan at 4:45 on the 16th. 5:00 at the latest. If you can't make by that time because of work (I'm guessing most of you) you could always catch up with us at, or on the way to the Hellenic club.

My number is 0423958366 if anyone has any questions

P.S its the Merici YEAR 10 formal

Cheers,

Reece

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
