Just wondering if anyone had been today and if it was worth while?

I can't talk from experience of being there, but got a message from a mate that reckons some of the dyno runs were interesting. Some 200sx putting out over 400rwkw and an R34 about 288rwkw

I guess your friend didnt stick around to see the R34 (CRD's RH9) to go on to make 600+ atw :(. If all goes well for Sunday they're planning to run again this time with the giggle gas on.

edit: That 200SX (S15) would've been GT Autosounds drag car.

haha waited soooo long to see RH9 run on the dyno, but got bored after about 20mins of them farting around :\

trust me...as a expat South Aussie now residing in the ACT...this thing is the REAL thing ..you will not be

disappointed, he is going all out today... :thumbsup:

Went an had a look today, didn't mind it i guess. Enjoyed having a look at the various small club displays & the couple of drift cars. Tend to appreciate them more as their driven/thrashed, compared to trailer queens. :thumbsup:

Not really worth $18 tho i thought, bit steep but hey. :dry:

Hey sorry to say but i thought auto salon this year was shit ive been every year for 6 years and this year i didnt like the car quality was nothing compeared to last year and the year before what happend to donny,s s15 and all the other greats but everyone has different taste so yeah some may like it same may not.

Oh and that guy that drives LUSHES RX7 what a tool bag he is he has an attitude problem what a wanker.

i went 2day, was alrite, some nice cars, i rekon would make it better if they had more ppl around talking about the cars n stuff, cos like when i went 2 look at a car the guys would just stare at u like 'y u looking at my car for". saw some ncie dyno runs...yeh that 34 gtr from act was fkn crazy.

no1 mentioned the nice looking girls...i ran into ppl on several occations cos i was staring at the hotties..lol

ronny (owner of lushes) is actually a really nice guy, dunno what you guys are talking about though.

MYSHOW S15 was the roughest show car on the scene the car was hardly a "show car" IMO it was more of a slap together.

It's not a R34 it's a R32 with the R34 front

WTF are you smoking?

I saw an R33 with an R34 front? Was all by it's lonesome self. Would have cost abit however. Was a few nice cars there, didn't see too much on the dyno as 1) wasn't enough 'seeing' positions (put some proper stands up would have been a good idea), 2) took a little long to setup and switch

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
