I used to regularly travel from Ipswich (ie, 5 mins from Willowbank) to the GC, it's really not that far and it's practically all highway. Of course somewhere closer would be better but if it gives you a place to hang out it's worth considering :(

thats very true.

not many gold coasters will want to travel all the way to willowbank just for a meet like the BWCP days...

I do travel occasionally to QR to watch the drift practices but i wouldn't want to go regularly.

But I have to agree we should try some of the places mentioned above and see how that goes.

all in favour? :D

And not many non gold coasters wanted to travel down there all the time. But they did.

you guys are on the money,The changi latte crowd only want it if its in their hood.

got to be careful here, last time replyed to you I got in the shit by using the sacred 'rhinorebel' handle.

have you anything constructive to write about the topic or is it going to be more drivel about the 'latte set'?.

c'mon Fineza, you can do better!!..

I feel left out because I like tea.

But honestly I think your left with the spit at the GC and thats it. Willowbank, Thursday night spots, carpark on the highways to/from work or certain industrial areas on various nights :blink: are pretty much the only other alternatives.

the spit is ok for daytime sessions, but no lights there, so limited value for night activities, plus it is further for Brizzy cars to travel. Willowbank has the best facilities but from what I've seen on this topic so far, it would not be popular because of the distances involved.

I, would personally travel anywhere between the tweed and north Brizzy for a meet up like we used to have at BWCP. Beenleigh area would probably attract the most people/cars IMO. but like you say, the alternatives seem few.

in the end, if enough people are keen to get something up and running, it will happen. if not, it will 'die in the proverbial....'.

Eye :):)

beenleigh ftw.. i wont have to drive like 2min lol...

however where in beenleigh could every1 meet.. could always talk to the showgrounds club about goin in there??? would be heaps of room then..

That and well, its nice and close to the court house so you can all contest your fines nice and easy. Its not about the room you have to think about. Its the location. If its even remotly close to houses that might have people in them cross it off the list. Its that simple, people hate hoons, weither they be actually hoons or not.

you vote for, "a nice big grass spot...."; you want to tell us where this grassy spot might be?.

yeah out towards Canungra...nice drive if you dont get lost...there are a few spots around the dams out that way as well...few bbq spots. just look up parks.

its better to meet up in these spots rather then on bitumen. more relaxing as well, and the other halfs might like to sit on soft ground as well.

his mums got a big grassy spot....

:D

so do i!! but you already know that.

yeah out towards Canungra...

Ever been out there on a sunday morning????

300 maybe 350 bikes up and down the main street... :(

First time i saw a k8 GsXR turbo there, its the place to ride on a sunday morning for breakfast...

    • 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!
