thanks for organising it mate :D was fun... just gotta try and meet some ppl next time.

I was wondering when we went through mornington why no one was hanging out on the street watching... cos we were there about 20 mins before everyone else..

we certainly put on a show in frankston. I know when we did a u turn at the lights that all of the cars that made it through really hung it out... to the delight of on lookers :P

Yeah i saw your car but didn't see you walking about at the meeting points.

Ula32's car was a monster, Ula32 you know why?? (R34 ring a bell)

glad that everyone enjoyed the cruise hopefully next time, the club will be all organised and and have a local one, for you guys.

yah that was me :D

we gotta meet up again in the day or something as i got to the pits late and it was dark so it was hard finding anyone there. the next meeting point was cool (except for cops) and i got to meet up with the mine's gtr and we stuck with him the whole night heh.

yeah, I was in front in silver series II r33 followed by the mines gtr then the wide guard silvia, then you must've been behind them cause i think there were a couple more skylines behind them.

I'm the guy that was next to the mines gtr when we stopped incorrectly on the last meeting point then went to the correct one.

I was in a group of skylines from the frankston stop untill close to arthurs seat....Who were you guys?? we were stuck behind some guy towing a boat on a 1 lane road for a bit....and we stopped at BP. That was quiet a nice cruise up...I was astonished at the speed of a purple GTR that was with us...O M G, respect!

I would just like to say a big thank you to the organisers (Mznizmo and skyline33!!) for such an awesome cruise, my first one and it couldn't of been better. Loved it!

I was Gardo's passenger and that run with the Skylines was awesome, what a mad site it was seeing all those skylines and all great guys too! That purple GT-R was crazy! He planted it in front of us and just ran away soooo fast.... wicked! :P

When we told my brother about the cruise he was pissed he didn't come, and especially when he saw that there we're a few R31's he wouldn't of felt so alone lol! As he has a 31. :D

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.

      R34 Gtt RB25det neo Issue After Modifications

      By ChrisGtt · Posted

      Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob

      Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
