spotted a 32 gtr going past artini crash yesterday at about 4.15. a silver 33 looking at me on south road this arvo at about 4, and gun-350 this morning at the regency road/churchill intersection...mmmm at about 8.15

just got a message from my mate working at BP Greenhill Road saying :

SPOTTED blue 34 gtr with white wheels.

pretty sure thats Bec :)

Yep that'd be me! I hardly ever get on here (clearly!)... It could have been Lindo (whos login I'm using now haha) behind the wheel also... Who knows ;)

PS DamageInc - I'm no good with usernames - do we know each other? :(

not formally i dont think ,

i was on that cruise ages ago with lindo , bosman etc , i was in the black r33 gtst.

next time i see you ill introduce myself :(

Spotted my Skyline living in the garage. Last time I drove it was on the SAU dyno day :)

:( sorry to hear Dion

my car is gonna be at least 2 weeks at the panel shop :(

but on a brighter note at least i get to do a majority of the work on her ;)

just spotted a white r33 being bullied by a cop car, on beach rd

the cop wouldnt let him merge unless he was in front of the police then the cops tailgated him in the mirrors hard core

he wasnt speeding or driving wonky but bet they shit bricks with the cops up his ass

what a bunch of power trippers

Reminds me of the time I was travelling behind a cop car (not tailgating)... next minute, the cop veers off into the dirt, pulls over, I drive past and then he pulls back onto the road and tailgates me for ages.

Yeah, cop, you're awesome.

this shit happends to me all the time too.they dont pull me over any more tho just follow me around and tail gate the shit outa me.its good for a laugh tho,taking corners at about 5kmh and starting to break waaaaay before a red light.haha

Lol Jack! They must hate it. I love going into my extra-cautious driving mode when they ram up behind me.

Do cops actually think we're gonna instantly drop it to 2nd gear and attempt to reach 180k when they tailgate us? Or f**k up in any way?

"Oh f**k a cop behind me! I better rip a huge skid to impress him"

    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion 
    • So, the other thing I've sorted is a baseline dyno run up at Unigroup's new location. The auto trans was a little unco-operative by both shifting down when the throttle was floored on the dyno (so Mark had to ramp it up more slowly than in a manual) and also by shifting up at 6,000 even in sports mode instead of the indicated redline of 7,000 Still, on a hot day it made 240rwkw at 16psi which seems about right for 300kw (400hp) through an auto at the wheels.  The shape of the curve is not quite right because it was not full throttle to about 4,500 to stop it kicking down, but until I can get a tune on the auto trans control this was the best we could do.....full boost will be well below 5,000 once that is sorted, I'll get some data logs when I can to confirm For comparison, the R32 made 255 at 12psi (at 4,500) on the same dyno with tune, n1 turbos, cam gears, big exhaust but otherwise all standard so the v37 is likely a little better out of the box. One thing that is very clear is that the standard water to air intercoolers are not up to sustained use at full throttle in warm ambient temps. After about 5 runs (so only a few minutes full throttle), it was pulling boost and timing and dropping 10-15% power. Unfortunately I didn't get that printout and the Unigroup guys are away at the moment, will try and get hold of it on their return. So, looks like a healthy engine to start modifying and the only real area of concern is the w2a heat exchangers which the aftermarket has plenty of solutions for    
    • I maintain it actually looked really nice in person. So much so that I thought "No, this is illegal" but there it was, clear as day. I think we can easily call the wing and wheels/height to be transformative. Not saying it's better than the GR Whatever, or the 86, or the WRX STI or anything of that sort (the internet says it all bolts up so you can buy best of all worlds?) but it's still at least a thing and not nearly AS bad as people say.
