well i know where to park for the nats as the area surrounding EPIC can get quite congested. We could all meet up in Dickson, the nearest shopping area, then drive up the road to the parking areas before going into the nats. it depends on what times/days people are arriving as most of the festivities occur on the saturday, especially at night :P

Friday night would be a good time to meet up. We could get together at the Tradies carpark at Dickson & you could lead the cruise from there. What time would you suggest?

Friday night, mmmmmmmmmm, my posse might be out at that time. What about mid afternoon? Like around 4 or 5? Through to like 8-9?

I might just turn up for the meet then back off to my gang.

Yeah, thats what I thought. Mid-late arvo, then off to do our own thing. Lets call it 5.30 till whenever.

I wouldn't cruise on the friday night, unwritten rule of summernats: locals keep car in garage on friday night. the cops are out in force and basically block off the main cruising routes after 10pm. an earlier cruise could work though, if we wanted to meet up, head around the lake or something for a few shots and a cruise through the city?

I agree there Leshy. Since Rob will not be joining us due to his tree excursion, it looks like it will be the two of us plus Alex. Should we settle on 6pm Friday, we could meet at the carpark in Dickson outside Woollies, then have a nice leisurely cruise around the city, have a few photos near the parliamentary triangle, then back to Dickson around 8pm. We can then head off our own ways from there. How does that sound? :)

sounds good to me. i'll be around for it. I was talking to marc yesterday, he still doesn't know the outcome of his accident (write-off or repairable) but he's getting around in his SSS Bluebird at the moment. I can't remember, but he might be hooking up with us too.

All other stageas heading to the Nats, join us on friday for a little cruise.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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.

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
