Ahh bad news for me guys, blew my turbo last night. Thought about just fixing that by replacing it but have decided to get all the work i want done to the car, so im aiming for 350-400 HP. All the best with the cruise!

Carindale sounds good. What time you wanna meet up. :laugh:

The red circle is where Maccas is located and the blue line is the route we will take to the motorway, just before the motorway marked in purple is where we will regroup before the onramp (depending on numbers).

I can't wait, this is going to be awesome!

Just to update numbers, I'll have at least 3 of us coming, possibly 5. I'll be meeting the crew at Springwood Maccas'

How many people are going to be meeting at Springwood Maccas?

Carindale sounds good. What time you wanna meet up. :ninja:

well if the springwood guys are meeting at 8 and leaving at 8:30 if we make sure we are ready by 8:30 then it should be all good... we might just have to get one of the springwood guys to give us a heads up when they are coming past the old cleveland exit so we can jump on...

any ideas where to meet? i was thinking somewhere where we can see them coming would be good but not sure where... would probably only be 3 or 4 of us so we dont need too much space... (might go and check it out tonight and see)

or u could not be slack and meet at springwood maccas...im coming from ipswich for christ sake :ninja:

yeah i am slack... its cos i dont like backtracking - especially when im hungover :)

Hey Zennon, what about the truck stop actually on the gateway...heaps of room to pull over...

Yeah sounds good! This is the one your thinking of isn't it:

PS. noone is allowed to laugh at my cracked front bar :ninja:

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • 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).
