Probably will be too wet... may have to call it off... hopefully the sun will come out and dry the roads.

Normally head off about 11:30 -12 ish from the usual place the midnight hills runs start at:

Im prob going to head to a movie tonight but it should be finished by that time... I will swing by the usual meet spot after if anyone is still keen -- i have to drive home throught the hills anyway........(may be a bit of a tame one however depending on the road conditions).

:(

Andy will have a copy of that DVD with me just in case you do show.

HI guys... was pretty wet last night... I didnt get out of pirates to 11:30 and at 11:45 when i rocked up to the spot noboddy was there. There was some tool in a supra who ran away pretty quickly (when i parked in front and went to go have a chat he drove off --> maybe he didnt like the look of my freinds in the car).

Did anyone see that ispirational whoha on the underground drift/drag/hills run scene in adel on abc last night about 730: what a crock of shit... THey used footage from melbourne!!!! I guess they have to talk it up or noboddy would watch there show. The tool with the face blotched out looked pretty distinguishable: i wounder how much the abc were paying him to come in and talk it up.

Hi Chris... Yeah im down for another hills run We should make it same time and place next fri if it is dry. WIll bring my DVD along so that we can swap... Im interested in seeing what the view looked like from that evo. Got some Bilstiens put in and it handles that much better!!!!

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?

      Blow Off Valve Is Causing Car To Stall!

      Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.

      I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
