Showing off cars is ghey and has no purpose :)

We used to do mountain runs until someone came off, and the media started to publish things in the paper.

Satisfaction for me is winning, not what a car looks like. But everyone has different views on what they like.

Serious though, head down to Brisbane city and down to Gold Coast, there isn’t a huge cruise scene up here, it's pretty much just local younger kids on a Thurs night and much the same on a Sunday arvo. Go check out BWCP, that whole parking lot is normally full every Sat night.

yea i may do, my friend lives there and usually comes up every weekend.might go down there for a change. im stuck with a NA at the moment. i chose to get my car completely stock and personalise it myself, so in a way i know what you mean. but you have to have the looks to go with performance. My friend is also telling me to sell the one i have now and to buy a stock turbo cause i wont get the same benefits if i just put in an aftermaret turbo now. i know it depends on what type of turbo but it would have to be better than the stock ones, what you rekon?

you rekon? so no matter the turbo put in, it wouldnt be worth it?

Also just read up on BWCP in brissy, supposedly its a death trap, it was a good scam by the cops and you can get defected for anythin like your wipers being too hard or not enough water etc!!! how stupid is that. i was reading up another forum where no one was allowed out until their car was checked and some people waited up to an hour!

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
