  1. I got 176.2rwkW on the same dyno as Duncan, same day so the results are directly comparable. GReddy return feed cooler, Apexi PFC, GReddy Profec B Spec II set to 12psi and full turbo-back exhaust - standard turbo on unopened RB25DET. The knock sensor was going crazy (but the engine was not knocking) and the AFM was out of resolution. Next year will be brakes, then upgrade turbo, injectors, Z32 AFM, and replace that knock sensor.
  2. But being a Sydneysider is still better than driving an Emo, though!
  3. Hahaha, what a coincidence - you just happen to have fitted the same/similar tyres!
  4. Yep, mine's a dark green s1 C34 with the V35 GT premium 18" wheels on it. I've got relatives who live right up the highway end of Targo Road near the park, and I'm there fairly often. StageIan lives not far off Darcy Road in Wenty, in a red s2 C34 - probably not the same one you've seen on Abbott Rd. I've also on occasion seen a silver s1 C34 parked on Targo Road, maybe the owner was going to Tony Shaw's Swimming Pool? Same car has also been spotted in Pendle Hill just off Darcy Road near the Binalong Road end.
  5. We have a Classifieds section for these... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/forum/56-for-sale-private-whole-cars-only/
  6. Also, I do believe a Pizza cruise should involve pizza...
  7. Hahahaha My dyno prediction was spot-on though - 175rwkW on the first run and a max of 176.2rwkW. AFM was maxed-out, and the knock sensor was going crazy (reading up to 170!) even though there was no knock. I've lost about 10kW over the past few years, but that was measured on a different shop's dyno and apart from the usual oils and filters, etc. I haven't had to do any maintenance.
  8. Make sure it's not tyre noise - I had a friend who went and bought a set of bearings for her 40th Anniversary R33 GTSt after I bet her (should have put money on it too) that it was her tyres. My sister had the same tyres on her car (Maxxis MA-Z1's) and they are noisy as f*ck! Workshop swapped wheels and tyres with an R32 GTR that they were also working on at the time, and it was much more quiet.
  9. I've been thinking of leaving an SAU business card on the car, but everytime I see it I'm either in too much of a hurry to get somewhere or too tired to do it. You live down Targo or on Targo? I'm on the other side of the station in Toonie, but my car also spends 95% of its home time in the garage. Clean car? Mine? LOL!
  10. Massive thanks again to Yavuz, Mark and Unigroup for another great day. Many thanks again to Sean and Duncan for help removing/replacing driveshafts where necessary.
  11. Spotted that silver M35 again parked on Targo Road in Toongabbie.
  12. Red Stagea is most likely StageIan - you should post it in the Stagea spotted thread here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/53437-spot-the-stagea/
  13. Canon 60D, but the fact I was using an L lens helps with the sharpness (and DoF) too.
  14. My nephew says he saw a silver C34 (not sure if it was s1 or s2) in Wentworthville around 10.20pm, turning off the Cumberland Highway. Rego was BCG-37D
  15. So, seeing as no-one's made a thread for this month yet, I did it. Took a few photos of my cousin and his daughters today. It also gave me a chance to break out the 70-200 f/2.8L, which hasn't had enough use since I bought it... Unimpressed cat was unimpressed: IMG_6267 by GoldZilla, on Flickr The kid LOVES to eat. This one was straight off the camera, no PP: IMG_6262 by GoldZilla, on Flickr IMG_6273 by GoldZilla, on Flickr IMG_6332 by GoldZilla, on Flickr IMG_6294 by GoldZilla, on Flickr
  16. The AutoCult.Net article is up, check the link in my sig.
  17. My memory on this is a bit rusty, but I think that the CD stacker was an option, but all head units already had the button (and internal electrics) to control one if it was fitted...
  18. "I don't always de-turbo my VQ35 and buy a RWD Nissan toy, but when I do I Renault..."
  19. I certainly do, Alex, but it's been a while since I've been to see him, unfortunately...
  20. Dan Murphy, right?
  21. Spotted a white C34 s2 yesterday parked near the corner of Powers Rd and Artisan Rd in Seven Hills, the rego was BDS-27T or something similar...
  22. Spotted this car again yesterday...
  23. I did end up at the Pio last night, but it was around 10.30pm. Went with my sister to watch her husband's band practice at a school around the corner, then they usually go there for a few drinks afterwards.
  24. I might come along too.
  25. This - all of it! ESPECIALLY that last line.
