I'm definately not coming now guys. Some inconsiderate person thought they had the right to break into my house and steal my wallet and the keys to my girlfriends corolla, then take off with the corolla. Unless the cops find it tomorrow (not f$%#ing likely) I have to give my car to the missus to drive to newcastle on the weekend and I'm getting an old VL to run around in.

As soon as I find who did it I'm going to break their legs, then wait for them to heal and break them again.... I hate pricks who steal cars, especially mine.

Anywho guys, have a fun day, I enjoyed it when I last went.

This was in Bathurst at my new home. Turns out you can't trust anyone these days. They fingerprinted the doors but didn't get any good prints. I guess I'll just lodge an insurance claim and see what happens.

can someone who will be getting there early/around start time or knows a lot about the area PM me there phone number so i can convoy with you on the morning, i'll most likely be hung-over as buggery so need someone to lead me there haha

Car is looking dam nice at the moment, only had a chance to clean half the outside so im all set for tomorrow. Might even work on cleaning under the bonnet this time instead of getting an evo driver to do it for me :D

Hi everyone, my name is Steve. Been a member a while, though tend to read more than i post. I'm keen on tagging along to this event, sounds fun. Drive a maroon BNR32, pic attached. Hope to see you all Sunday at Commonwealth Park.

Well, car's almost done, I just need to clean the wheels and blacken the tyres and do a wee bit of metal polishing.

But I have to be at a wedding at 2, I look like shit and plus I reek to high heaven of Eau De Meguiars.

Hi all

Was going to pretty my car up good for this and show it off a bit but last weekend I had a minor incident with a small roo.

Thankfully I only glanced it but that was enough to put minor cracks through the paint on the front bar in a couple of places + a small indent in the passenger side door. So really only very minor damage for a roo encounter but still bloody annoying.

So with that I decided that i'll just coma along say hello and have a perv at everyone elses car porn.

See ya tomorrow

Just so people know, heres the road where the futsal stadium is, up the end of the street. This is where the cruise starts. I'll be at John Knights park from 8am, won't be part of the cruise.

Had a great time, good to meet everyone, the spot we got was different but I think it worked out better in the end. Slightly burnt, but good day.

edit: Thanks to Mick for the Federal Tent and everyone that helped make the day what it was :teehee:

Took some ok pics.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
