Hey All,

Myself and a few mates are taking my car down to Gavin Woods on the 5th for a tune and afterwards are planning to head to Aspley Maccas as I know it is usually not to bad. Quick question does anything else exciting happen on a thurs night down there and how many people from the forums go there?

Aspley maccas is getting huge again, but doubt, like anything it will get locked down by the cops one of these days.

Roma Street is always good on a thursday night. We normally get to roma street around 8:30ish to get a good park and then watch all the nice cars drive past. It normally really packs out about 9:30 and as their aren't many parks, there are heaps of traffic jams. But the busy times are from about 9:30 onwards.

Yea it seems to be a huge problem lately the cops are really tightening down on "car meets" its annoying because the people who just want to stop and talk can't do it without getting stuck with the cops going through your car and usually finding a "defect" somewhere! Excuse my lack of knoweledge of brissy but where in roma street do you park? I know vaugely where it is but lol where to park would be a mystery to me!

Theres two enterances into Roma Street. One off Roma Street just past the Transit centre (near the construction site for the new courts) you go in and theres a round about or theirs another entrance at the top of the parklands (I think it's Gregory Terrace) I'd go this way if you have a lowered car. The speed bumps in roma street like ripping exhausts off.

Aspley maccas is packed. You drive in there and there isn't one carpark available. Last time we went out there, I didn't even attempt to drive in. There isn't just bogans there.

To me, aspley will always have a bad reputation. Everytime we went there about 6 months ago, their were fights with knives and guns.. SO we stopped going their.

hmm yea i dont like the brissy speed humps in carparks i can see the supredrager getting detached from my car! Might have to check out Aspley and Roma street, although guns and knives dont really seem like a place to be...it might be a good thing the cops will be there :D

Personally I wouldnt this week. Last week new sercurity guard was there, didnt let anyone park in the main carpark, this then annoyed the now slight 'bogan' factor (seems bogans found turbos hey...) and they started to do skids, chirps etc, so at a guess Id say the cops are gona rock up there soon anyway. But yeah, if they dont its really good, could have just been the other guy was on holidays or something.

LOL whatever Erin, I dunno about all that hey... Maybe some rumors or something...

I am down there not this week but the week after anyway. Being from noosa a simple drive around down there is more interesting than our entire night...so I will hopefully see some decent cars and be able to congregate somewhere without being kept there for hours so a cop can inspect my car!

Rumours?? what are you talking about rumours...

We were sitting in the hypermarket watching the fight and listening to the cops talk about it over the scanner...

hahha..

cops will start to crack down.. in sydney and melbourne they've had cops and security guards for years now.. its something you guys have got to get used to i think.

Hanging around maccas is kinda lame though.. i mean its such a shit place, and its so open and crap and u usally get a whole heap of muzzas.. plenty of better places to meet.

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
