We have been there 5 years....maybe a bit more. We love it out there. Its a lot better now that we have shops, petrol station etc.

Alot of people think Ellenbrook is a long way out, but its not. Its 10minutes from Wangara, and 15 minutes to morley and less to midland. There is public transport available in and out of the suburb now to :wave:

What area are you looking in?

I've only been in the area for about the last 2 months with shayde & his gf, just depends what sort of lifestyle you're after but it seems like a really good, quiet, family sort of area to move to. As Bard said it's close enough to other places you might need to go for things like Midland, Morley or Malaga but you're pretty much set for everything else you need day to day. For me on the other hand I'm young, single & I'm a bit away from mates now lol, I'm looking for a place to move out to on my own preferably closer to the city, but that's definately not because of Ellenbrook. :sick:

Ossie, in regards to being further away from your mates..... since living in Ellenbrook alot of the free loading mates dont just drop by anymore for a beer and ciggarette so there is a slight advantage LOL

Its a nice quiet lifestyle out there.

Good luck with the finance and i hope you plan to invite all SAUWA Ellenbrookians to the house warming :( (at least thats 1 party we can stagger home from :D

I was at Arbor Grove Primary today taking photos of Troy Cook, and some aboriginal activities happening at the school.

Got a friend who lives on the Coolamon side of Ellenbrook in a 3 x 2. It's on a cottage block, but I think its big enough for a small family if that is one day your plan.

In terms of trouble, there is a dodgey side to Ellenbrook (I think lower left of Ellenbrook if you look on map) and you get heaps of thugs outside of the IGA down @ Woodlands but you can just run them over quiet easily.

I'll be looking at Ellenbrook or the new Midland housing development around the Railway Workshops once I offload my GTR or if I get a big wad of cash land on my lap hehehe. The Midland housing development looks to be a really good thing too, and some of the shops around Midland are getting better. (~where JB is, and some new cafes close by i.e Cafe de Luca)

Oh and you can't forget about the tavern that will ONE DAY be built in Ellenbrook.

5 years and waiting FFS

:P

You think that's bad, the bit of hepburn that will eventually go behind our house was supposed to be opened in the early 90's. Still not built, but minor progress has been made, and they're still saying it'll happen haha.

We've been living in Ellenbrook for 2years, I think it's great. It's really close to alot of great restaurant's in the Swan Valley too.

I lived there for 3 years without any problems, nice neighbours and lakes to go walking around. I moved out a year after Paul moved into the neighbourhood.

    • Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session
    • You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.
    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf
