Nothing much. Been quietly going about my business. Also been procrastinating a lot when it comes to doing up the car. I have a couple of parts I'd like to get put onto the car but I just can't be bothered. Perhaps one day I'll hit up my mate and get everything done.

Nice to see you've got big plans for yours ;)

You might want to get a mechanical diff centre, some better brakes and good tyres to suit your car's new found superpowers! (if you haven't already).

So.............when are the Twmba boys gonna meet up and do a little cruise and/or spirited drive? Its been a rather long time no?

It sorta feels like we're (when I say "we", I mean we as a group and not me having a different sub-species of car :P ) a dying breed and all the time, the number of skylines keep increasing around town. I swear I've come across no less than five 33s that have to be new to town.

Am working on 2 cruise's before the end of the year including the Christmas party again, lets hope for no storms this time and another for a drive then hit up indoor karts.

Could do the 23rd. Would you guys be able to travel half way to say Ipswich? Or we could make it a Saturday lunch...

23rd is good for me. No problems travelling to Ipswich

Someone please get a photo of mini hulk in his clown car.

You know.

For the lulz.

Lol at mini hulk, at my birthday party last Saturday he tried to bear hug me and lift me up and failed

That's it ill walk to Ipswich, no better yet I'll jump on the deadly treadly... Nah stuff that, chrissssss

I got a push bike I can lend you. Is set up for me but put some stilts on and you should be able to ride it.

yes

Where is a good place that does early bird specials?

Fyp bro, learntospellcheck :)

Also I had to google beguilement so were even lol, also I think tony just popped up in a Facebook post I saw lol

Thanks for the speelink check fella.

Also, I thought a big word might get some questioning! :whistling:

What is in the works for the /Friday night dinner up here? Do I need to find a place for dinner or we could even have a BBQ at my place?

I've got a few ideas in mind, but feel free to give suggestions. After all, it's your town/city/empire...

Tony I'd go with the 23rd. Friday night dinners are best.

PANCAKE MANOR!

Pancake Manor is not a bad place. Good feed, great Pancakes.

Whiet boiz carnt speel.

Friday night dinners are good for most people. We tend to have boozey Friday lunches at work if we've had a good week, so driving to Ipswich after that is highly questionable. Unless you want to pick me up Scotty. ;)

We'll discuss venue further tonight and organise it for next Friday. Steak is good. Tony likes steak. Martin likes sausage.

I know a few places but feel free to throw some ideas around. Maybe one of the other Tooowoomba guys have a good place in mind?

Friday night dinners always end the same way for me, blind rotten drunk

Lime5nine cafe will fill the bill.

Sounds good to me

Heading to your fair city on the 24th of dec for a couple of weeks,

son lives there,be nice to catch up an have a chat with you guys. :action-smiley-069:

Will be doing a cruise around then. Always good to meet fellow SAU members

Spotted Noel floating around down here before no idea where he's gone now :/

So why didnt you hook up bish, I went and parked over near the EFI/ERD crew with Benny's red VL.

Ran an 8.7 before they hit some fuel pressure issues. Keen to see how far it can go.

I was in the 'hatsu my beast has no motor in it ATM :(, yer this is the "ignite" vl, I saw it spit the catch can fitting (or something along those lines) but that was the only run I saw of it.

Next time I'll come over and have a chat :)

    • I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.
    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
    • Slight segway but the most expensive part of the whole thing which I would have thought would only be required for an engine size/type swap, not a VIV test, is emissions testing.  That's when you get into the big bucks.  I can't remember the exact price now but I got quotes for the GT-R based on swapping to RB30 (not that anyone bothers doing it legally anymore...) and it was around $4500 just for that alone.  The guy that does them manipulates the tune on the vehicle to make sure it passes.  The cheaper option is to book into Kangan Batman Tafe (I think that's where it was) and hire their tester.  Allegedly you're not allowed in there with the car though so not in a position to tweak anything to make sure the vehicle passes.  I'm sure in this day and age of ultra tuneable ECU's you could get the tuner to program a special efficiency (clean) tune that emits the lowest amount of particulates possible that would pass the test.  It might only make 50kW's but as long as it passed who cares!
    • I'm sure he has left signs, or, he is looking down, laughing That's my cunning plan for when I leave, lots of half finished projects, with no rhyme or reason of where I was actually up to, just to keep everyone on their toes
