We have a whoretown for a reason. We also have a wasteland section on this forum for a reason.

The whoretown thread takes up enough bandwidth without having another threads full of crap. That thread was started to keep all the crap talk in one area. I dont care if you start a "who's from the wide bay area". However, I have issues with you starting up a thread for people just to "chat" in when we already have a thread for that.

Sometimes poeple want to chat to poeple with people in the same area. I can't see why you don't understand that, Maybe you could explain a bit further.

My reasoning for starting the sunny coast post was to meet new people and chat to them. Think about it, if I am chating in the whoretown I am speaking to people all over QLD, from rocky to gold coast. "how about we meet up some where" "sorry dude I am over 500km away!", where as in the localised posts "how about we meet up?" "OK! see you in ten min at alex hds. I can check out these new mods on your car"

Do you see where I am coming from??????

I don't mean any offence

Very true, leave this thread open pleeeeaaasssseee nismo girl! Oh, and you never added me to msn nismo girl :dry:

I understand the whole chat thing slowing things down, but wide bay isnt such a big place and it would be good to yack to people from the same area to share info, mods, catch up! maybe even get a cruze going!

How but just give it a go and if you still hate it in a week nismo girl then just ask ryan b4 just closing the thread! kind rude just closing on him...

but yeah im kezza, i have a smicko R32 GTS-t FMIC 3" full trust exhaust from turbo back, Boosted to 12PSI , running split fire coils, HKS power flow pod, Trial front bar, GAB sus , 16" gold chrome mags.

Big ass audio system all APLINE.

Would love to catch up with people from the wide bay area :)

Im not sticking up for anyone here as i am a inderpendant moderator...

Let me explain that when Sam started the sunshine post chat post others started gold coast ones and all of a sudden we has 4 topics of different areas.

Remember back to when GTR cruise got played up with other model specific car cruises as a joke. People get jealous and want a piece of their own action.

We allowed the sunshine coast and the gold coast ones as they were being used quite regularlly and were quite friendlly and didnt require much moderation.

But we did warn at the time that NO more threads about area specific chat would be allowed. If they get closed then those people complain about the sunshine coast chat post.

I understanding as to why Nismogirl closed the sunshine coast chat post is basiclly in short is cause it didnt comply to everyone and other users wanted their own chat post. Once the other chat posts were closed or bumped to the moved area those people complained about the sunshine coast chat post and how it was allowed. As you can understand we cant have one set of rules for the sunshine coast and other rules for everyone else.

At the end of the day Nismogirl is the only person who will reverse the closed topic.

Hey, I'm new to these forums. Don't yet have a Skyline or the like but I do own a SSS Pulsar and before that I had an R31 Skyline. I plan on selling the SSS and hopefully getting a nice Stagea, since it will be only 1 of 2 in Hervey Bay.

As for the white '33, it is from Hervey Bay, and yes a female does own it. It is quite a nice car.

Hopefully I will join up as an active member of the Qld SAu when I get my Stagea (Well I should say, when me and the wife get OUR Stagea.)

Will be on here a lot more as time goes by researching and such for when the time comes to make the big purchase.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
