Toombul is a Police organised event where car enthusiasts can meet in a safe environment without the worry of idiots doing burnouts etc. Come and have a look at modified vehicles that are owned by people just like you, which have an appreciation of all tastes of motor vehicle.

The Police involved are friendly and have an interest in motor vehicles so feel free to have a chat or if the booze bus is there by all means ask for a tour. BBQ will be put on by "someone" (being organised) so dig deep and have a big feed. Usually it winds up about the 10.00pm mark, so come and be sociable without the stress of being told to move on :D

TOOMBUL CARPARK - Sandgate Road

THURSDAY 17TH JULY

They don't look over cars, they are there at their own free will.

Be a stupid inside and outside and I'm sure you will get done, cops do patrol outside Toombul car park in case people do stupid stuff when they leave.

So yeah basically behave and you shouldn't have any trouble.

so no one wants to cruise up together from Gold Coast?

I finish work at 3 tomorrow, so I would probably leave around 6:30pm???

It would be good to have a skyline cruise sort of thing up there with some members on here.

If anyone would like to cruise along just send a PM

Cheers.

I was not able to make it but there has been no comments......

So how did to go?

Did anyone go?

DOH!!!!

was it any good???

it went awesome. It was my first time there and i would definitely recommend going.

Good environment and you can talk to cops who are interested in cars and a RTA who give you very informative information on legalities of mods.

I even got a photo of me inside the cop car but the pictures of the whole night were very shit as my friends camera was poor quality.

Ill post some pictures in a second.

    • 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!
