-Just wondering if anyone happens to be going from Geelong to Melbourne this afternoon (07/05) or tomorrow morning? Long shot I know, but I have a part in geelong that I need to try and get into the city - Hotel Ibis by about 10:00 am tomorrow morning (08/05). $100 for your trouble if you can. If anyone is by chance, and is willing to do so please call me on 0408 615135. Thanks very much. Jarrod

Cheers, thanks for that- thought I may have been on to something big!! lol.

.As the title says, probably a dumb question but just wondering if trying to cool the actual turbo would help in making power? I've been reading a few books on turbo's and obviously heat is a big issue. some of the pictures of turboed racing engines showed the turbo red hot. Has anyone ever made a turbo with something like a heatsink on it, or wrapped it in copper wire and pumped coolant or something around it? Or would that be just pointless? Cheers

Awesome, what issue of Speed and fast fours is it in so I can have a perv?

..LOL, maybe you're better off asking to meet up with people who have black SS commodore utes! I was up there last week and that's all I saw! Bogans

...I'll be there, I'm sure there will be heaps that will leave it to the last moment, 6 weeks or so out is still a long time away.

...Thanks for that, took the airbox off first and did the power steering because that was the one that was easiest to get to, as luck would have it, that was the one. Thanks for your help!

..Well the WD40 trick worked a treat! thankyou, it was just a slipping belt, probably a stupid question but how the fark do I tension them? Couldn't see an adjustment bolt or anything?

I have a couple of different sets of tyres, If they are just sitting in the shed for ages - say 6 months or so can they degrade? Should they be stored any particular way?

Thanks NZM.031 will check it out today, appreciate the help!

Cheers, thanks for that, i'll give that a try shortly. I Better give it a couple of hours till the neighbours are up!

....that's what I was very bloody afraid of! Just thought it wouldn't be because it happened at the same time belts were changed.

..Changed the belts on my R33 a few months back, the first few drives everythings fine, since then it's been making a fsrking horrible squeal. At first when started for a few seconds until warmed but has steadily become worse, now when I start it it squeals like a bitch for at least 5 minutes then when I drive, if I stop (traffic light etc) it starts bloody squealing again, sounds shocking. Visually it doesn't look like a belts slipping, all gauges are fine, power steering, electrics etc are fine. Belts weren't a genuine Nissan part, but a replacement part given to me by my mechanic. How can I tell which belt it is? Any suggestions? Thanks Guys.

What pump, nozzles etc did you use? Pressure regulator or just match nozzle size? What type of spray - cone, fan etc?

Stolly ....XL my g/f will come along to. Kel .......Small

Anyone been to this venue before, or anyone from Wagga or nearby keen to go up for a cruise one day for a look around the area? Maybe on a Saturday or Sunday before Easter?

.....sorry Trident -actually I do wear glasses, and yes I had them on....just thought the one with the bra on was a commodore.. just jokes! .Anyway, a bloke must be going mad, swore there were only two!, or maybe I'm just a deadshit that can't count!

I'd imagine that if they are genuine, they will have 'NISSAN' stamped into them. My R34 wheels have this, don't know for sure but just presuming that R33 would be the same.

Spotted two white GT-R's leaving Wagga and heading for home this arvo, - very f'ing nice, was going the other way in my purple R33, gave you a little wave - not sure if I scored was back or was snobbed! Hope you had a good day and enjoyed Wagga - just didn't quite make it back home in time damn it!

Spotted '2RISMO' today, on the road from Picton to Wollongong - Very nice!, I was heading the other way in a purple R33

Where abouts in town were you? Must have just missed everyone F&*% it!

How was the meeting? did you just stay at the Shanty? Got back from the gong and went to the Shanty at 2:45, but no-one there! Saw two nice 'lines leaving Wagga at approx. 3pm was that the Canberra guys? - Looked very smiko!

Hey all, will hopefully catch you all on Sunday, I'll be in Wollongong Sunday morning, but should be back depending on how hungover I am.

'Daily or every second daily driver' - Have you sat in a Cobra? hope you're under 5 foot tall, not really a daily driver is it? You might as well get one of the new Elfin Clubmans - would be about as practical! GEN3 V8, Tremec 6 Speed, Fully adjustable suspension, big brakes etc etc, 0-100 in 4.4. Obviously I haven't driven one (and probably won't ever drive one!), but apparantely they are awesome handling cars. - Get Elanoar.

.I'm keen to go over, what time does it start/finish etc
