I ended up pulling over behind the r34 and astroboy as I followed them back to the bruce highway. Could not see a thing and it was thankful that we all had out driver lights on so that we used each other's tail lights to guide us through.

After a while, we just pulled over hoping it would pass really quickly. 5mins after sittin there, it didnt so we drove on more.

Was good to meet some of you there. I missed the whole cruise thing due to being like 2 mins late to the BP I went to the carpark and im like wtf? then a cleaning lady told me, "they just left". anyways. I guessed that it was over woorim etc. Was a good place to park. almost enough room for everyone.

my fav car was a nicely kitted 32 that was a beautiful deep blue. ( hey i like blue)

anybody see that car. can't remember plates.

And my god rexkilla launch was unbelievable. Rain on the way home was a bit of a pain. haven't driven in stuff like that for ages. Did anyone else see the barina that had spun off the northbound hwy and wedged itself backwards into and under a tree branch in the median strip? funniest thing i've seen in a while.

well see you all again on the 27th hopefully. Cheers, Mark

lol

yeah i had seen that wedged under a tree

hahahaha

i thought it was a charade tho.

but lol funny as.

:blink:

yeah, i thought it was a charade too.

Was wonderin how it got there. Thought it had been there a few hrs. Then again, also thought it was stolen and left there to rot. Seen alot of old cars lately that been stolen around brisbane and just left there. One being along standly st in woolloongabba/stones corner area smashed into a side rail and left there.

yeh i behaved most of the day

i done a little launch for the sauers at the end there.

but everyone was gone by then, there was only us 5 or so left.

but yeah when there was lots of cars parked people shouldnt have been speeding up or down or anything.

worked out pretty well, was a great day, some people chopping up and stuff on the highway got a bit dodgy! lol

didnt seem much organisation once we got there, people just thought, meh im going and loads left after 10 mins hey.

thanks for the pics loved it.

all in all a great day, daym if anyone got caught in that heavy heavy rain right at the end on the way home, farq!!!! got visibility?

mick

Yeah wrxkilla I was behind you in that rain... :blink: could not see your tail lights at all and you were only about 30m in front of me..Ps your car shoots flames even on light shifts :blink:

I had a great day, that charade cracked me up, how the hell did he do it? Saw alot of great cars and loved the gtr stagea and the purple 32 sic, wrxkillers launch was awesome, rain on the way home was thick luckily I was following elite force and got through to an envigorating drive home,

See you all at the MSC. :P

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
