Hey all! Its about time we had another megameet i think! The last Southern Skyline Enthusiasts/Skylines Downunder South Island 'megameet' was possibly the SSE Cruise to Lake Tekapo in 2005. And before that possibly the SDU Queenstown meet in 2004.

Details below, please SPREAD THE WORD! We want a huge attendance!

SATURDAY, 19TH MARCH 2011 (rain or shine, as always)

DUNEDIN/LOWER SOUTH MEET UP

TIME: 8:00am to 8:30am

LEAVE: 8:30am, or NO later than 8:45am, arrive at Caroline Bay at 11am.

LOCATION: TBC, but likely somewhere on the one way system or on Pine Hill?

DETAILS:

- Please come with enough petrol.

- There will only be one toilet/food stop and that will take place in Oamaru.

- I'll hopefully have a car at the front (me) and the back with walkie talkies (range dependant) so please try stick to 100km/h so that we don't get too spread out. Following SH1 all the way to Caroline Bay in Timaru, hopefully everyone knows where that is!

CHRISTCHURCH/UPPER SOUTH MEET UP

TIME: 8:30am to 9:00am

LEAVE: 9:00am sharp

LOCATION: Rolleston BP Connect service station (corner Main South Road & Tennyson Street, Rolleston)

DETAILS: TBC

Timaruians and others can opt to just meet us at the Bay. :)

TIMMAZ TO DO LIST (in no particular order after the first three)

- Park up at Caroline Bay at 11am or 11:30am at the latest?

- Meet and greet and mosey at each others cars etc, then first lineup pics of the day?

- Enjoy the lovely SUNNY day.

- 'Outdoor Roast' lunch?

- Cruise over to Levels Raceway for a wee bit to watch the motorbike track day. Can leave after a few mins or whenever suits.

- Maybe cruise over to Pleasant Point and have a go on the Flying Fox? :D

- Meal at a distinguished restaurant later in the day (KFC/Maccas?)

- Couple more lineup photo shoots at random places?

- Mini Golf at Caroline Bay?

- <insert other stuff here>

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.

      Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers

      The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
