Hi Jayce,

Wont be coming up this year :D , going to the Phillip Island Hot Rod / Nostalgia (sp?) show :blink:.  Would have been great to meet up with you all again, espically now that my car is back on the road.  A whole list of mods have been added this year and i probably would have entered the SummerNats if i was to come up.  Oh well, there is always next year :D.  Have a great weekend and see ya next time.

Bugger;woulda been good to catch you up again,Al! Have fun at P.I.-hope the weather holds out!

tryed to ring ya jayce, but went to message bank, probably too late, ohwell, have fun

I was racing at the time,which is more important to me than answering my phone...which is why I have "message bank"-to leave a message! And you're right:too late now! Meh...

o....k..... so at this stage, it seems to be, Jayce and E, Nik and + 1 i'm guessing, and myself and a friend

Yep;pretty much it from SAU,including ib6ub9! Got a few car enthusiast friends tagging along,too...

If anyone doesn't want to take thier car in, then just come to my place and i'll take u in, in the 'Hatsu.

Hahahahahaha! LMAO! "The 'Hatsu"! Now I feel like Andrew has a proper Japanese car,even when it's only a Charade! A nice "japanese" spin the way that "'Rana" is Aussie for...well,you all know what I'm getting at...

Are we driving our cars in or avoiding that will other cars!!! Not so much attention!!

Just a little "heads up" for those that want to bring their 'Lines etc;there's a car park that's usually not noticed just behind Da Cellini's in a little laneway accessed from the Ford dealership side...Just have someone check if there's space b4 driving in-it's a pig to turn around in if it's full!

Rain,rain,go away...and let us watch the cars in the dry! I'm going to the restaraunt regardless,but I have to call to see if they can still seat us under cover outside or fit us inside...

I'll be back to you all shortly...

A top night had by all,I'd say! Good food,top company and too many cars to look at=a great time! Whilst there was a huge Police presence,they would have to have been the coolest,most friendly crew I've seen in Braddon ever. I'm sure a few deserving people felt the law at a few isolated times,but it was still flowing smoothly,without the forecast street closures,violence or hoons happening,by the time we departed(early morning).Thanks for those who attended;your honesty and help making sure the bill at Da Cellini's balanced out was appreciated,and having you there was even better! Those that either "pulled a heartstring",or got "inconvenienced" on the way there;too bad you didn't make it!

Simply, just a great night!

Some incredible cars, and some seriously tricked out paintjobs, not to mention the wheels on 1 particular S2000, who's tyres were so low profile i'm yet to be convinced that they weren't painted on?

Definately an annual even from now on!

Many thanks to the few of us that managed to make it, it was great to have your company!

yeah sorry i didn't make it. had some mates from out of town in the car so i just went for a quick drive down lonsdale.

saw an audi A4 go up the back of a 70's corolla, was hillarious, even the cops standing on the footpath laughed at him. audi had no damage, and i'd be surprised if the corolla isn't a write off.

sorry i left early guys. we'd just had enough after about an hr..... plus the next morning, i came to discover that some c0ck had swiped 1 of my volk centre caps while it was parked in braddon :blink: ......

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
