any 1 know about Iceduc, Busky2k ,66 skyline gt or any the other locals @ these boards

yep put me down if my 34 is ready by then (it'd better be!)

It's funny - there seems to be a changing of the guard with Munro and Cheeky married/pregnant, Mel and Pawley just had a baby *congratulations*, Joel with recent addition, Whatsisname busy doing other things, Grepin overseas, Buggalugs m.i.a, myself inbetween cars .... seems most of the old gang have disappeared. Of course some of the original group like Maxx, GFXMan, 9krpm, etc are still quite active. Ah well, I suppose it's the change of times. :unsure:

Well so much for my 'Welcome the R34' cruise to Victor with paintball or go-karting, that I was going to plan for February - might have to make it March.

not sure if can make it, but will try my hardest and hopefully they will roster me off, or my cold might just kick in. Might be bringing a friend along with a 34, not a definate but could join as well.

By the time you get that car on the road, 34s will be old school

I'ts a ploy to be ready in case they re-introduce the 15 year rule again, and Andrew is going to have the first R34 complied under that system :( (hope the paintwork holds up, it will probably be faded by the time its complied)

Unfortunately Ash i live on a property out the back of woodside in adelaide hills.

Due to licence disqual on feb 1st for one year i will be moving in to the city area (hopefully somewhere close to work). So hoepfully i will be living in city at time of cruise (may even consider letting someone else drive my car with me init like GF.) Will keep you posted!

Oh yeah... got my car back last night: had to get the exhaust maniffold studs put in as a lot of them had been snapped off from warping due to trubo heat and as a result it started sounding like a VW combi van!: THank Fruck it is fixed!!!!! :huh:

fingers crossed u can get sumthing sorted out ...

i would suggest ur GF driving is a good idea ... unless she scares u behind the wheel of her barina :rofl:

I have never let her drive it b4 (i normally attempt to change subject quickly when the topic pops up)... and yes scares the absoulute crap out of me when she drives her little laser with me init!!!! :P

still.... i wouldnt miss the cruise for the world!!! :w00t:

I have a friend in an R31 GTS (aus delivered one of 200 built) that may be keen for cruise as well... will have to let him know about it (i dont think he is on the forums)

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
