Anyone Townsville ppl here?

[CalaisT3RBO]

I have just come over to these forums due to the fact that I have just purchased a R32 GTR. The Car arrives tomorrow.

I was just wondering if there was any Townsville Skyline owners on here out of interest.

[gtr13]

Yep there is a few of us here Gary silver R32 GTR myself dark grey R33 GTR and i think Aaron Harliquin R32 GTR is on here as well . Might even be a few GTSt owners as well there is plenty of them getting around so no doubt there would be a few on here.

[CalaisT3RBO]

Gary and Aaron are both friends of friends. Your place is on Ross River Road right near willows?? I think

Hi welcome to the forum also from T'ville.

Hi Farside what car do you drive?

I am picking my new car up today from Transport. Exterior wise the car is standard, Super Silver GTR.

It has a fresh motor, new highflow turbos with steel turbines, 600cc injectors, Apexi Power FC, K&N pod filters and Exhaust. I dont plan on modifying the car anymore than it is.

My name is Jonathan if you see me around town say hello, Im very interested to see your guys cars.

[CalaisT3RBO]

rebuilt turbos sorry, HKS Cams and adjustable cam gears.

[Mud]

Nice car!

Sounds like people in townsville have a bit of money with all the GTR's around

[CalaisT3RBO]

Almost all of the Townsville GTR owners are here. There will be three R32 GTR's including mine in town. I am unsure how many R33 GTR's there are.

The truck delivering my car has been delayed and wont be arriving until 6pm tonight. I cant pick it up until tomorrow morning now.

[Farside]

sounds like a lot of fun.

so if you see a red Gts ser2 say Hi

[gtr13]

Yes that would be mine on ross river road except it is dark grey pearl not black never owned an s15 used to own a black wrx and a black 300zx tt before that . Pretty sure there are 3 R33 GTR's in town midnight purple owned by some sort of doctor my grey one and another white one which is for sale the owner is sick of it breaking so he is getting rid of it.

[CalaisT3RBO]

hory shit..

Who does your mods and maintenance?

yourself or workshop

[gtr13]

Services are done by Hammonds Automotive he is a family friend and i trust him so i wont let anyone else in Townsville touch it after a drama with Bob Hawkins . All mods were done by Gavin Woods on the Gold Coast anything major happens it goes to him.

[CalaisT3RBO]

I got the car yesterday morning it drives great. Unbelievable to drive.

I dont think the aircon liked the Townsville weather yesterday. I think I killed something, getting it checked out.

The only things im chasing now is a Replacement mag and a left air vent. They were both outstanding items when I bought the car, price was adjusted accordingly on the purchase price. Already got them put aside at Japparts Sydney. Is there a closer place to go for spares? at decent prices

[gtr13]

Japanese motorsport in adelaide are good bit far away though . Hows the car going a bit better then the calais?

[CalaisT3RBO]

The cars going great, alot better than the calais. Im used to slowing down for every corner and bump, when this thing just flies through them.

The Air Con compressor died. Theres a bung type thing in the back that just leaks the gas out now whenever we pump it up. I now need to find a R12 compressor for my car. Im going to try a few places today, we removed it yesterday after finding where the leak was.

I wont be driving it this week though. I left the car in the garage at my gf's cause the air flow meter is also cracked, has been repaired in the past. Its on the inlet side and is doing the job, but im going to fix it while im getting the ac up and running again.
