See Jimbo. We would have been screwed either way.

I saw another accident closer to home. Only one car, spun out and hit the wall on General Home Drive, ended up facing the opposite way. He was ok.

I got home at 4. Car seems to be ok. All the water came out of the air vents and the paper towels did the trick on the passenger side carpet. Found water in the boot too from a small leak somewhere. Nothing to worry about.

I saw you coming back down Mona Vale Rd Christian, you flashed several times but I only saw ur plates @ the last minute and didnt get a chance to flash back......

I agree with Ben, the parkway was atrocious........ I need to put my demisters on steroids........

Is that where you went. There was some other bloke in a R32 that was fanging around too. Maybe thats who your saw when I was on the phone to you.

Isnt it great when its pissing down rain and your driving with 0 visability and some bloke drives towards you with his highbeams on (lights).

And then you have the light marks stuck in your eyes for the next 5 minutes.

Nah, christian and nick took a look at my lights but from what nick remembers of his s2, there is only one plug and it can only go in one way. sometime next week i'll take it to Envy during my lunch time to get it fixed.

I left early friday night (you probably saw me turn around two40 (since i was next to you)). I had to get up in 3 hours for work.

I also saw ronin, another skyline - maybe it was jimbo?, and nick (who was looking directly at my car trying to figure out if he knew me). They were all stop at the lights close to the start of mona vale road.

Just wondering, when did Jimbo turn up and what was his excuse for being late?

Christian: I quite like your rear bar... after following you along monavale rd It grew on my quite quickly.

Bwahaha, I turned up right when everyone was leaving the carpark, Moanie was going the wrong way, but I saw Tosh infront pulled over so I assumed everyone was pulling out ready to go so I zoomed infront of him and then when Nick flew past I thought we must be going ...

Little did I know wthat Nick and Tosh were heading elsewhere. Decided to turn on the CB to see if we were still using chan 25 due to 33 being a repeater and I heard Nick and Tosh talking about me following them so decided to butt in and thankfully Tosh decided he'd come out to show us the way :D

As for excuse, ummmmm, blame it on the rain ? :)

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
