Hey guy's, my name is Michael. I've just moved back to Toowoomba. Once a week I go and wash my car at carlovers. Also I just moved from living at the bottom of Mt Tamborine. I used to love going for a drive up the mountain and down through the hinterlands with other cars. If you guys can show me a good run, something similar, I'd be much alibied.

Hope to see you guys on the road. My car is easy to spot. Number plate is B FUN.

Hey man, welcome. Tamborine and the GC hinterland is a sweet drive, we really should go for a cruise up there one day. As Nick mentioned we do have a nice windy local route we frequent but nowhere near as good as tambo/mt glorious. Will have to meet up soon.

Possible to just do a hardpark somewhere so I can tag along and catch up + get updates on everybody's car? :P

I would go down that road with you guys but my tyres aren't up to the job. Was pretty scary the last time...even Nick '33' was leaving me behind!

Either that, or you guys can really drive.

Oh and I have been rather busy but I've been itching to catch up with you fellas :wub:

Hey guys :) I have worn out one of my rear tires. I'm going to replace both but the Bridgestone I went to wanted to charge me $620 a tire. I'm looking on eBay and I can get a set of Kumho's for $399 plus deliver and such. Just wondering what you guys do.

My rear tire size is 265/35 18 97YXL

What's your problem tommie? Did I say where I would be doing said drifting? I'm 28 years old and know that you would have to be retarted to speed through public streets.

I'm new to Toowoomba and would like to make some friends on here, hopefully maybe yourself as well. But I would ask you would think twice before talking to me like that again, unless I do go and say some stupid shit!

Ask adult/sensible question man and I'm sure we will get along.

Tom is a good guy, just really paranoid about the police, they have given him plenty of trouble over the years so he does have a good reason to be paranoid. But anyway welcome.

Yes a meet up defiantly overdue. Maybe everyone would be keen for a meet up and bit of a drive next weekend?

Tomorrow eh. Could be interesting enough for a putt past, dunno if the 5 oh will be around? (run, Tom!)

lol who needs to worry about the 5 oh...... Not me that's for sure.

Maybe we could do a hard park next weekend then. We are well overdue for drinks.

Also there might be a pub run happening on Sunday if the weather is good. Anyone keen?

If you do get it going again, I am most defiantly keen for photos. Mine has been similar to your's this year, it has spent most of the year locked away in the shed on a trickel charger. I mean it has done a tad over 400km's this year so not quite the 100km's you have done in your's over the past couple of year. I am way to paranoid about someone seeing it and trying to steal it ( which would need to be done on the back of a tow truck with all the security work myself and Chris Rogers has done on it) and also one of Toowoomba's many ''fantastic'' drivers running into my car.

The truth is that I actually don't have much to hide at all. The 5-oh would get bored with my car and there're much bigger fish to fry here in woomba.

I simply don't LIKE cops. I don't want to see them. I don't want them harassing me and touching my car. Simply put, I am disgusted by the cops in this country and I try to avoid confrontations with them. The cops around here have done a very great job at ruining one of the very few things that young guys can do in this f*khole of a town.

      OEM Soko: Japanese business supplying Automotive items from Japan - Freebie inside!

      We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
