Thanks heaps Erin for the pic.... Car looked sweet today until i got it wet on the way home and dust stuck like glue to finger tips... LOL (Done that a few times)

As for the wheels.....

It was upon leaving i puller over just out side the car park.... (Honest truth was i went into the bushes to have a quickie... LOL no really a leek) When i come back to the car my gf was going back to the canteen to get an ice cream. Anyways i thought id walk down to her and look on the way... Once we got back, a guy with a tyre iron and a jack was just un doing the first nut... I yelled out and he dropped the jack and ran into the bushes with the tyre iron.... Dont know who he was or where he was from... but yeah... not good....

Was not very happy.... Should have been lazy and driven back the whole 100m....

Thats some f**ked up sh1t... Own up you low life!

I knew i should have gone to the toliet....

But damn i really needed to go after i went over the bump at the gates.....

Oh,,,, it felt so good too.... Going in the bushes beside the road is the best....

did you keep his jack? bet if you did in a couple of days somone will ask if any one has a apare jack for sale.

I can't believe somone would do that especially somone from a skyline club :kick:

should of followed him and flogged him with his own tyre iron. if it was me i probably would have lost my temper and beat him up (no good on my behalf) :flamed:

I know he was with us on the ride cause the jack is a skyline jack... Same as the one in my boot.... I threw the lever at him but it hit a branch and i kept the jack....

Come to think about it.... He could have just been an average joe there already and stole the jack and tire iron from someone elses boot????

You guys had better check ya boots... LOL

I still have your jack... but the lever and tyre iron are gone....

col-gtsx, that's seriously some f**ked up sh*t!

at least he actaully didnt get away with it i suppose.. but yeah, if you're on here, i wouldn't be owning up to it if you really want to keep a 'good' reputation....

anyway... good cruise, lots of skylines, lots of pics, lots of sunburn :cheers:

i friigin missed it, i slept in till like 10, and i live an hour away from the start point and have no idea where lake baroon is so i am pissed off:( oohhhh well sounded like a good day anyway, so what was the final figure on how many cars went???

Damn fine effort made by all who showed up on the day, 'cept for the knob who thought a set of VOLK's were easily taxed(F@CKHEAD!!!)......

cheers for a great day,Erin top job!!!!!

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
