Yeah done all that , it always good to get advice off the locals as they know the best spots at the time , around Queanbeyan some of the fishing spots that websites say are good DON`T have water at the moment so u never know how good the info is.

It funny ppl that like cars seen to hate fishing. My car mates hate fishing , my fishing mates hate cars

Gus i know of a few spots around the island (depends on where you are planning on going) that i can let you know of.

It all comes down to time of year and if you are going to be up north or south of the state.

Do you know ANY spots at all you plan on checking out or is it still in the planning stage???

Cheers GMB

Still in the saving and planing stage we hope to get over there November but looks like nobody will have enuff money so maybe March , we want to fish those tailing fish u see on the TV shows, we sort of want to travel around and see as much as possible a few place that are must see are Lake St Clair , pedder and that Lagoon that has the Big Brook trout Penstock I think

When and what lakes do u get those HUGE dun/mayflies hatchers on , as over in the mainland trout don`t rise much we do pretty much all our fishing at night using big wets , great fun in winter when your line and rod ice up.

Sorry I dont have a better idea of spots and times but there is so many lakes . but we only want to catch trout on fly

Would mine to see a few Tassie lines to u dudes must have a mad time on those roads

At Lake St. Clair, you cant go wrong. Theres a spot that involves a decent walk, probably a good hour or so up the Mt. Rufus track, theres a lake called Shadow Lake, which is joined to another thats not named, the un-named lake has a few BIG rainbow trout. Always seek local advice on the weather tho, cause if you get stuck your f**ked up that way

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
