next friday few us us were gonna take the route to try it out with few cars..

i got my mate organising the arthur seat route..

so im thinking.. how bout we put em together.. instead of just lines only how bout we merge my mates with the rest of the people attending this cruise..

that would make an added..

3 s15's

s14

thats fine with me, the more cars the better i think. so do you want them to come on the 10th with us??

yep im thinking might aswell just combine them both together

cause wed be taking the same route anyways

want me to advertise in on the unnoficial section in mccr for jap cars only for a bigger turnout?

up to u...

just gimme the details..

and might be easier if we pushed back the meeting time to bout 9pm depart at 9:30???

ill get the map to u asap

u got a email addy?

Update: The meet will take place at 9:00pm in front of the albert park pits and we depart 9:30.  

MZNISMO: check your PM

might wanna update it in the original post if u havent already

just saw this thread but I am pretty keen to come along...voted as a maybe...route sounds good but me thinks more advertising [mccr etc] the more likely for cops to show up :confused:

Not that it will affect my car but the Elwood carpark has a few speed humps...just letting ppl know that may have low-rides.

cops can come for a cruise! thats all good :)

not like we're going on this cruise to cause trouble anyway (i would like to think the guys on here are a lot more responsible than the MCCR dikheads!!!) meetings like this arent meant for going out and hooning around the streets like idiots... its to go out with a bunch of ppl young and old who share one common passion... and that is our Japanese Imports!!

Lets make sure the skylines keep it that way... what everyone else does is there business (if i see anyone going stupid im off) us import drivers have a bad stigma hanging around our heads as it is... lets not proove them right!

    • Very decent bit of kit. Definitely black it out I reckon.  
    • Because people who want that are buying euros. The people with the money to buy the aftermarket heads and blocks aren’t interested in efficiency or making -7 power, they’re making well over 1,000hp and pretty much only drive them at full throttle  best way to way make money is know your customer base and what they want and don’t spend money making things they don’t want. 
    • It's not, but it does feel like a bit of a missed opportunity regardless. For example, what if the cylinder head was redesigned to fit a GDI fuel system? It's worth like two full points of compression ratio when looking at modern GDI turbo vs PFI turbo. I'm pretty reliably surprised at how much less turbo it takes to make similar power out of a modern engine vs something like an RB26. Something with roughly the same dimensions as a -7 on an S55 is making absolutely silly power numbers compared to an RB26. I know there's a ton of power loss from things like high tension rings, high viscosity oil, clutch fan, AWD standby loss, etc but it's something like 700 whp in an F80 M3 vs 400 whp in an R33 GTR. The stock TF035HL4W turbos in an F80 M3 are really rather dinky little things and that's enough to get 400 whp at 18 psi. This just seems unwise no? I thought the general approach is if you aren't knock limited the MFB50 should be held constant through the RPM range. So more timing with RPM, but less timing with more cylinder filling. A VE-based table should accordingly inverse the VE curve of the engine.
    • I've seen tunes from big name workshops with cars making in excess of 700kW and one thing that stood out to me, is that noone is bothering with torque management. Everyone is throwing in as much timing as the motor can take for a pull. Sure that yields pretty numbers on a dyno, but it's not keeping these motors together for more than a few squirts down the straight without blowing coolant or head gaskets. If tuners, paid a bit more attention and took timing out in the mid range, managed boost a bit better, you'll probably see less motors grenading. Not to name names, or anything like that, but I've seen a tune, from a pretty wild GT-R from a big name tuner and I was but perplexed on the amount of timing jammed into it. You would have expected a quite a bit less timing at peak torque versus near the limiter, but there was literally 3 degrees of difference. Sure you want to make as much as possible throughout the RPM range, but why? At the expense of blowing motors? Anyhow I think we've gone off topic enough once again lol.
    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power
